SingleDoubt.6047 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Does anyone recall if kirins could fly in GW1? I always thought they were really cool horse-like creatures and think that would be a really cool mount skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You remember way better than I do! Might have to log in and see/kill some to refresh my memory! I'm not really a big fan of swimming in-game in general, so an underwater mount would be lost on me.

Zola.6197 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 I’d love it~ Even making it a unique form of Kirin, as exists in the Canthan lore, could make for an interesting mount. Could do some sort of teleportation via rainbow (or just be a unique griffon skin). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cragga the Eighty Third.60 Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Kirin Okay, yeah, I could live with something like this. Even with wings stuck on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptors, too, even if not much like the mount version. The springers and skimmers are new and unique (as far as I know) and the roller beetles and jackals are apparently based on some GW1 lore. The only hint I know of of any unicorn lore is that Dreamer shortbow. > > If another winged mount is coming, my vote is for a flying dolyak. Horses exist in Tyria, pictures of them, statues of them, even zodiac images of them are all found around. NPC's talk about them and even Destinys Edge saw them in the book.

casualkenny.9817 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 It seems small-minded to assume that pegacorns (and pegabicorns) do not exist somewhere in the vastness of the mists tho. And a pegacorn could conceivably leave behind a trail of mists of water droplets (skimmers fart all the time too) which can give the visual effect of rainbows, so a rainbow-fart pegacorn is totally plausible in our world. And tho we do not have horses on tyria in the current era, we could always have pegagrifficorns. Griffon breeds already come with many types of heads. It really just takes one bored deity to craft one. (And if I have to put up with that 2k peacock thing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate saying it because I know it sounds like trying to force players to play your way but this is one thing I was glad not to see in guild wars. It's like when I've seen people ask for playable dwarves and elves in the past, or even playable skritt to a lesser extent. I am someone who greatly enjoys the lore of this game and to see someone go flying but on a flying unicorn covered in rainbows when there's no other mention of them in the game, let alone a visible horse in the game, is not something I ever want. It's the same reason I opposed SAB mounts and the branded mounts when they come out, I don't like lorebreaking items. And your right I don't have to buy them but I will have to look at them everywhere I go so that's why I'm strongly on the opposite side of this topic. You already have to watch my shiny behind when ever I go by sooooooo. =) Tough luck, buttercup, there's a lot of stuff in this game I don't like looking at but still have to deal with. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean others won't love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trise.2865 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 People have been asking for equine mounts till their horse (double pun!). I don't know that horsing around on an alicorn would be very stable, and it's not my personal foal. But hay, if they want to pony up for it, then I say "whiynn not?"
