Flying Fennec Fox? If it were red, and ablaze... Could prob get away with reskinning that one firey something.. or a battle alpaca. idk.
I know you're not *specifically* the dev to talk to about this, Ttobey, but perhaps you could pass it along? A while back ago, you guys made a backpack that had a little guild heraldry banner that flew off of it, like a samurai banner. I was thinking--what about guild heraldry shields? A set of nice, large round, kite, and tower shields that display your guild emblem across the center, like classic medieval heraldric arms? It'd be really cool.
Why couldn't it work the way it currently works in Lavastorm? The horse runs along through the air on it's fiery hooves. For that matter, why can't any horse run through the air with magic? There are so many ground mounts that would be incredible to have as flying mount appearances. LON mounts, marketplace mounts, etc. Heck, I'm currently running through the air on my mummified iksar feet somehow. Would a magical flying (wingless!) horse really be more of a problem? I do!
I do too. Especially if the hooves leave a small trail of fiery hoof prints through the sky. It would be soooo awesome. But my wife will settle for recoloring a pegasus for now if it is the only option.
The majority of illusions that share an animation skeleton with the player character can already ride mounts without breaking. If you're wanting to be a gnoll or use that Toxxullia Winged Sentinel wyvern illusion while riding a phoenix, however, you're out of luck.
i am well aware... been keeping mounts 100% hidden since KA's flappy bird that never lands. would rather just go with no flying graphic and superman it in my illusion forms for fun for that 1% i am flying around not runnin in a dungeon or something.
@ttobey While it's on my mind: some of the Legends of Norrath illusions aren't working properly with mounts. Burning Touch (as well as the Necro fun spell skeleton illusions), Icy Touch, Sathirian Curse, Necromantic Construct, Glamor of the Renda'Dal, Sultan's Fancy, etc. should work with mounts, but they don't. Also, couldn't something be done for the Sathirian Curse and Burning Touch illusion, to make them work like the orc skeleton one from Nights of the Dead, to be able to wear player armors?
Ttobey, if you can do this or pass it on, please remove the particle effect sparkles from the fae/arasai flight spell. They show up even in first person. (And for some of us, make us rather ill. And for others in a group flying behind, annoy them.) If I use the slash command, you have to put it to off to be able to not see them and then you lose a bunch of other perfectly lovely effects, like a complete travel bell, or necessary effects, like harvest the sparkling rock/scroll for the quest. Other mounts don't have such drastic effects, and while yes this is a spell not a mount, it's used in place of a mount and, well, I'd love to be able to use it!
The item Robber Ducky's Burgler Hat would look amazing in pink and purple, don't you think? /reminder
