I realize that there are waypoints and these cancel the purpose of mounts, but there are some times when i’d rather not use a waypoint and there are sometimes when there aren’t even waypoints at all(WvW). There needs to be a way of transportation other than the waypoints.
The instant teleport system is cool, but its more fun to explore the world on foot. Games like skyrim and fallout have fast travel, but its encouraged to not use it as you will miss out on stuff along the rodes, in Guild wars case, its world events.
One thing me and my friend loved about world of warcraft, were the mounts, and the large verity of mounts. He would spend most of his time on WoW raiding and gathering gold to afford these rare and legendary mounts. It was a great sense of accomplishment to own something that a lot of people didn’t have.
The armor dye system can be used to further customize your mounts in unique ways, determining what mount it is. It would be cool to have your own personal touch on an already rare mount.
One way to balance out mounts and waypoints is to greatly reduce the amount of waypoints in the world, (and)or increase the cost to use them.
WvW could greatly use the mount system, its a pain to walk everywhere.
I don’t know if mounts have already been suggested and shut down, but i’m trying to voice my best opinion what I think would be a great addition. I like this game, and I really want to see it do great.
