I know, the idea of mounts in the game was already mentioned quite much before, but!
Only in wvw – deployed bluprint of some sort of steampunk machine like motorcycle.
It would cost little to build, but easy descructable. It would have special sort of skills like dashes etc and would give perma swiftness. Also getting in and out would take time and could be interrupted (not to make chain dashes form class skills, and counterplay). The idea is to balance roaming classes (warrior has perma 25% movement speed increesed and has multiple dashes, thief stealth, but what have guardian or necro? tankiness?), make roaming and scouting more fun to play (motorcycle gang!). Also zergs run in perma swiftness, bigger groups too, why not solo/few players?

What is your opinions?

Maps aren’t big enough to warrant anything like this.
The distribution of swiftness across the classes is intended. Some classes are mean to be slow.

That would be interesting. They’d have to be fairly slow moving trains though

Arent big enough? Tried running with guard from one end to another? It would be only swiftness, so nothing gamebreaking, also dash 1 or 2 like many classes have. My point is that all class skills would be locked while mounted. It could give more variety or fun with other classes like mesmer (bound to traveller), necro with his only signet or guard with one dash and bad swiftness uptime. It is only about transport.
