    Default New Raptor Mount in 1.5



    Better than a stupid Mossy Tartagon, imo. By the way, I dont think the mount will be this big. The CM was already much larger than a normal character when he mounted it. It's definitely not a lowrider like the old croc though.

    That looks awesome. Sadly it looks like it will be acquired by the same means as Mossy Tartagon, making any uniqueness of the mount void.

    Now if only you could use it to hunt big game...

    I was thinking the same thing.

    I am super-excited we get something besides a turtle...and I even LIKE the turtles but need something different once in a while! The raptor looks very cool. +1 for mount choice for this patch!

    What I'd like to see (as a fun suggestion) is a few different coloring schemes, and it is random which one you get when the egg grows up. Maybe (for those who must have EVERYTHING) you could try for each color type, but the required amount of items needed increases for each raptor mount you make. So not everyone will have exactly the same mount but determined types can ultimately choose their favorite of the three or four colors offered.

    Of course, this would lower the amount of different raptors that could slowly be offered for different events. ;)

    The Defiants should develop some sort of machine that lets you throw in two or three different mounts and merge them into one model.

    I believe a certain Red Mage did something like this once, with human-sized birds, in order to facilitate a certain form of travel.

    It didn't end well.

    Why does it look so cartoony?!
    It looks wayyyy more cartoony and childish than even the raptor mount in WoW.

    Surely you could make something much more intimidating and vicious, as a raptor is worthy of, in a game with such impressive graphics as this?

    Is it feathered?

    I can't tell from the image.

    If it is, kudos to Trion for doing their homework and not relying on Jurassic Park.

    Would you like it to be totally RNG like the murdantix mount?

    That people farmed for countless hours and still didn't receive the mount? I'm sure this is a much better way of receiving the mount, it rewards constant play instead of luck.

    As someone who farmed (what feels like) endlessly for that mount, and still didn't get it -- Yes. RNG is a better system for vanity items because it keeps the rarity of the item intact.

    Then again, I'm one of those people who value a vanity item based on its rarity. Many people aren't.
