Rumba.3174 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Downscaling mounts in low level areas just like your level. When I do map completion and go to a low level area I feel totally over powered with my mount, often it’s a one shot kill. Yes it’s nice to be done with it fast but there is no joy in the long terms. I’m pretty sure this will be an unpopular thought of mine. But we’ll see what you guys think. Should mount be downscaled just like your level?

TheGrimm.5624 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Haven't really gone to lower levels with the mount, assumed it would scale. Did you look at your mounted stats while in an 80 zone and the lower zone and not see a change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaric.3980 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I feel like on a new character they should probably be scaled down but if I'm going into an area on my 80, I'm honestly not concerned about it too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Fro.6953 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I think at the least damage should be scaled. They made scaling to prevent grieving the experience for lower level players in the first place. I think that should be maintained. Health? Doesn't bother me too much.

No, but my Concentration for Swiftness is. ;_; While I'm mostly sure that scaling for mounts is a thing, I'm not sure it downscales enough to to me from tailsweeping everything to death.

Your player speed doesn't scale down when you are downleveled Was just making sure OP was just talking about fights when he said, "yes it's nice to be done with it fast." And not map completion or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rapthorne.7345 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 not really been on any core maps since PoF launch, but if the damage doesn't scale down, then it should Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pah.4931 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I kinda wish they didn't do any damage ever. I like rounding 'em up. But if they MUST do damage, they should scale way down in old world. Events are boring now when there are more than 2 or 3 people around (and tagging is even harder). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOX.3582 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 How do you people keep finding stuff to complain about, gosh? Of course I want to feel overpowered in low level maps! And downscaling still works on your character so the long fights stay the same. One-shot with a mount is epic! Don’t change please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moyayuki.3619 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Yes, the damage should be downscaled like everything else in the game. But we should try to remember that PoF has only been out for a few weeks, meaning changes to that won't be made right away. Issues such as disconnects and genuine bugs/glitches are always handled first. Then the balancing changes can be tackled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arzurag.7506 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I´m really astonished that they aren´t included in the respective downscaling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nosleepdemon.1368 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Speed AND damage should scale. Otherwise mounted players are just going to whip passed newbies and smash events before they get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not sure what is, "epic," about fighting foes so much weaker than yourself that you can one shot groups of them. Seems like the antithesis of epic to me.

They are included in downscaling, you can see this easily if you go to any lower level area, both your mounts health and their damage is scaled down. Perhaps the OP meant they should be downscaled _more _severely? As for speed, no, that should never be "downscaled". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pah.4931 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I have enjoyed mounts. But the bad side effect is that it changes player behavior. I would like to see a few things change: 1. Mounts should scale down damage in old world (or have them do no damage at all) 2. Mounts should have less health 3. Mounts should NOT protect you from 100% of fall damage. That's just silly. 4. Talking to NPCs should not dismount you (unless it's at a bank / TP / merchant / important story point / etc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaaCrow.3076 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 No, if im doing map for the 5th time i want it done as quick as possible, mount dismount abilities aid in that, no thx go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to the person doing the map for their first time, enjoying it, only to get an entire mob one-shot squashed by your raptor. You're still able to run the map super fast without killing it for somebody else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Hide.6345 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I am going to say no. I like it the way it is now. Leveling my 6th 80 through the zones I appreciate how fast the mount attacks kill mobs. It saves me a lot of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John.8507 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Yes should scale to match the player, as you can take out small mobs with the mount, a bit unfair to other players in events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexZero.7910 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Nope. People need to find a new bandwagon to hate on. It's a feature that's working as intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
