Who wants horses ?!!??!

I want:
rideable giant lizards,
flying (low) dragons spitting fire,
enormous cats pulling a chariot
mini cyclones so you look like the Tasmanian Devil,
a big iron cauldron (very Celtic surely),
A cloud like in Monkey TV show,
Flying monkey !!!

Horses....meh.....

Before last update admin said they were working on mounts of all kinds. I'm perfectly happy with a horse, but all the other mounts would also be cool. I think horses and other mounts need something that brooms and sleds don't have, so that one will not be irrelevant. Just excited to see what the debs come up with!

I vote for just horses, I've been waiting for near enough a year, since I first saw the horse trader.

I expect that they will be different. Currently, these novelty items are barely mounts.

Surely, they will be living , moving mounts. Being able to equip things in your hands would make sense on many but not all mounts. Maybe a horse can act like a mini bank while still being able to carry you around on its back to travel and aid you in battle.

Well let's just say that a wyvern mount came out. Equipping a weapon and offhand does not sound practical. Maybe that specific mount can take the place of your offhand or if there is a designated slot for mounts, it can clear up your current offhand slot. I'm just throwing ideas here and fantasizing a bit. I can see it adding a boost to your melee, providing a slight speed boost of maybe 10-20%, provide a fiery proc to your auto, and also provide extra health (as it is not your health that is in danger. Now that would be one badass mount! It would definetly be worth 1m+.

Would you be more intimidated by someone on something like a giant boar or a war horse? Well maybe intimidtion will be a factor in battle with an aoe skill that a mount provides which debuffs! Again, just an idea :)

What would having an equipped broom/sled/carpet while riding a horse look like?
