You dont need mounts, simply put, think of an instance where it could be sued and maintain game balance, it cant.

Yeha ok, you can say that you could use it for running thru the desert, but you shudnt be able to do that, takes all the skill outa getting to places. We have map travel, WOW doesnt have that, and has a much bigger area, that is why mounts work there.

Simply put mounts would be rubbish in GW, imagine being able to run past pretty much every mob you come to, or the alternative is to get slowed down, or knocked off, then you may as well be walking past.

I dont mind saying that this is a silly idea, and I have said so everytime, we dont need mounts, you should all just accept I know what's best and take my word for it.

I have also said it before that I would quit playing GW if they introduced mounts, simply for the lack of need for them.

Given Nightfall is of an African theme, they could make much larger instances with way more open savanah type lands. Even if there wasn't enough space, simply make mounts like minipets, with no purpose but looks, like stated before.

you may as well take out the mini pet, it is useless. Remove all the 15k version of Armor, its useless, remove all variation armor art, its useless.

Poison Ivy · Aug 10, 2006, 06:08 AM // 06:08

And when we get them, several threads will be created telling Anet to remove them

I wholeheartily agree with Thallandor's post. I'm a bit shocked that so many of you are being so closed minded to this idea. If Anet would put Transports into GW's certainly they would make it balanced. There could even be several different types of transports to choose from based on what your needs are. The faster the transport the lower the defense and vice versa. Transports might not neccasarily be allowed in each area or even chapter for that matter. I think if Anet put serious thought into this transports could be implemented very nicely.

Having mounts in guildwars is like driving to your neibours house.

Stupid and pointless.

Unless you don't live in the city....

Mounts in a game where you can map travel...wtf were you and the other 300 people thinking when you suggested this?

mounts for transport needs is pointless in the excisting chapers, even for new chapters it's still a bit pointless.
and everybody seems to be thinking mounts = transport creature, you could make the mounts like the avaters now, as an elite.
or pure for the looks as i said before, to get a more RP feeling.
