Cyrin.1035 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 It's mostly a matter of opinion and taste. Some may love the Reforged Warhound or the Resplendent Avian and gladly pay 2k gems. Others may have no interest in them. Those who love them might still consider that price high. So what is a 2000 gem mount skin in your eyes? For me, I'd want something made of dragon crystals for my Griffon or see-through and ethereal for my Skimmer. Here are some mounts/skins from different MMORPGs that might give you some ideas: ![](https://i.imgur.com/B5dwjrk.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/OecmQ2D.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/sq5JHIy.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/vf73Bgt.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/2pS9kYJ.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/ENjSdz8.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/2QQ9Ad6.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/O3WHXX2.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/6kF7O8s.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/Z11Yj2c.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/HHEUGQU.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/eXkiSwi.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/ExERxvy.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/Js7XO0e.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/Z6wO7Vv.jpg "") ![]( https://i.imgur.com/x11T8WH.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/KokBQnV.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/ab1bqhY.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/8mcdsbW.jpg "") ![](https://i.imgur.com/xZG8keq.jpg "") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirlias.8104 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 To me mounts are the 5 they give to us. Raptor, Springer, Skrimmer, Jackal and Griffon. I would like not to see total reskin, but just variant of those specific mounts. * Armored * Slightly Icy Theme * Slightly Fire Theme * Seasonal Theme * Enemy Theme * Etc... But always the same kind of mount ( no dragons, mecha, etc... ). To me the game is already ruined, though slightly, by little effects like * Shiny flashy dyes * Comical Gliders * Annoying Sounds * Minis ( though i do have the armore scarlet ). * Some outfits Or else, i wouldn't disagree with the stuff ANET would put in the future, if the decided also to give us more options to disable/lower details on other players. There are some, but imho not enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only skin worth 2000 gems is a skin that is bundles with 4 more skins. Raptor, Springer, Skimmer, Jackal, Griffon. All in one for 2000 gems.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I like the Moose/Reindeer, but not for 2000 Gems. I think I will be disappointed, perhaps, in Wintersday offerings, if the holiday 'Mountfit' is 2000 Gems. Maybe, if we are fortunate, it will be a discounted bundle. Personally, I'd rather have the chance for a (low-cost) Wintersday skin, in the Adoption, or BL Chest, but I'm sure I'm in the vast minority. I can afford a chance or two; can never spend the amount required for the high-cost bundles or single skins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would look weird on the jumping animation of the Raptor and even the uphill situation. On the Jackal you can have a cruising look when you're just going forward. Jumping makes a little hover thing below. When you do the sand teleport/dash, the spectre would dash ahead with a flame burst from the exhaust in the back as you go forward some distance.

SkyFallsInThunder.8257 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 There is nothing that a mount skin can have that it deserves a 2K GEMS PRICE ARE YOU PEOPLE EVEN SERIOUS IT WOULD COST ALMOST AS MUCH AS POF!!!

Ashantara.8731 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I would only consider paying 2k Gems for a mount if it was an actual new mount, not just a skin for the existent five.

Dreamy Lu.3865 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I am happy to contribute financially to the game, what I do regularly, but for me, an amount of 2000 gems for one unique item, that is a purely "nice to look" thing, goes over my limits of what I find acceptable. Let's say so: If over time, I would achieve to build up this amount ingame, using gold, and that the skin would be so important to me, then maybe I would go it (whereas, I doubt it). But I would in no way pay 25 euro - as in about 1/3 of the price of the game itself - for one unique mount skin. That being said, I fully agree with OP: This remains a personal matter to decide if it is OK or not for self. Each shall see for him/herself. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
