Instead of mounts that will clutter up the place, especially in Lion’s Arch, why not just give us the ability to sprint? It would use up endurance, so a player with full endurance would only be able to sprint for 5 seconds before they’d have to wait for it to refill.

We got WPs, so Mounts are not needed, but I believe I’m not the only one when I say that the current movement speed for all races is just a tad bit too slow, especially as Norns and Charrs have it the worst with their awful slow-appearing movement animations. I’d like to feel like I’m sprinting to an event quickly, not jogging slowly and taking in the scenery as I go along.

Either a permanent 10% increase in movement speed with a faster animation movement for charrs and norns, or just the ability to sprint (Binded with key) would be nice.

Roll a warrior, thief, necro, ranger, ele, or engi if you feel like a 10% speed boost means anything. Increasing the base speed of all classes does nothing for the game when there are waypoints, speed increases, and teleport-type skills available.

We already get a passive speed boost when outside of combat. Plus each class has skills that give speed boosts as well.

There’s absolutely no need to add any sort of passive speed boost, but the option to spend some endurance on a burst of speed would be cool – it’d make vigor more interesting at least!
