Guild Wars 2

Any chance we can get this in game even in a less creppy version (;-;) as a new mount type?

Also i thougj of a movement skill as well instead of jumping the spider weaves a bridges to pass above areas it would otherwise be harder. This skill will take longer to minfest compaired to the raptort but the bridge remains for a minute for everyone to pass.

Also when you jump off cliffs the spider will attacks some web the cliff and slowly fall down preventing the character from taking fatal falling dmg.

I want the super creepy one as part of this years continuation of the mad king story as well as a new map that’s designed to function all year but get crazy around halloween

If the six gods ever decide to bring in a spider mount, I’d expect it would be able to climb cliffs, rather than make bridges. Spanning chasms is already handled by the raptor, but climbing cliffs isn’t handled by any mount yet and it’s something you’d expect a spider to do.

I agree on the falling damage part.

I’d like the Spider mount; it can replace the removed Griffon mount.

And an engineer could have a mechanical spider! With flamethrowers.

Less creepy? Like having a red skin with black stripes? We can also call it Peter! Wait….. I sense copyright issues :O

The bunny one does that.

No, the bunny scales cliffs by jumping which would have limitations in terms of maximum height, aiming and room to land. A spider, in my imagining, would have the freedom to climb vertically or move horizontally on a cliff face as desired, as well as being able to just hang there on a cliff-face in case you wanted a safe place to rest.

Anyway, aren’t you being hypocritical? If the spider can’t scale cliffs cause the bunny does that, why would you ask it to span chasms which is what a raptor does already?

I am the hypocrit? The bunny handles that already so why add another mount for that same job. And dont tell me because it does it in a diff way because i suggested a diff way for what a raptor does as well. At least having a slawer falling through the web can still work and feel unique.

It’s been reported (I think it was on Bog Otter’s stream Tuesday), that they did create a spider mount but it was deemed too creepy to use.

If you’re asking me “why add another mount for the same job” then why are you suggesting adding another mount for the same job as the raptor? O_o

As I suggested in another thread, the “too creepy for Arachnophobes” issue might be avoidable if they had a “spiders” toggle in the options menu, where if you turned it on then the Spider mounts would appear to be something else on your client, like a machine or another animal. They already have a lot of client-side instanced content, like Heart Quest objectives, so it’s possible that this might be doable (even though each game system is its own thing and it may not be doable).

shhh….. it will be available under gemstore mount skin…..

I can totally see this happening…
If not mount skin, maybe they will add equipment skin for mounts, something like saddle with fairy glitter and glow

We will get a few mounts with the expansion. You can pretty well bet that there will be more mounts in the gemstore and (with sufficient begging) the Spider mount will be there, for 700 gems.

They could just make a Karka mount, glue 4 more dangling legs on it and paint some extra eyes on the front (and a mustache so its classy).

I want a Spider Mount, too. Able to scale walls ideally, just walk up.

This mini pet has a lovely green glow. Scale it up and it’s the mount my Necro needs.
