Hmmm,
Well do what most of us do with our fluff spells, unmem it and dont use it.. I f you want a horse do what most other classes do go buy 1.
That's it. I'm finished being nice to these people.
Your skull must be made of depleted uranium. I have never seen such a dense bunch of people in my life. You come to this forum and ask us why we're mad that our "fluff" spell was nerfed. Then when we tell you it shouldn't have been a fluff spell in the first place, you say, "well SOE made it a fluff spell so it shouldn't be useful." Now, besides the fact that they made it worse than useless, let me, once again, because you're not listening or reading the other posts here, direct this to you since you can't seem to get this through your lead-thick skull.
A horse is a trademark characteristic of a knight. It defines what the paladin/shadowknight is. Paladins throughout RPG history, from paper to MMO, have had horses. And not just regular horses, but fast [ThroggNerfed!] horses!
Now, I could sit here and beat this fact into your thick head with a shovel until the shovel was perfectly conformed to the shape of your blunt skull, but you will still reply with, "well SOE didn't think so. it was fluff, so it shouldn't be useful because my fluff wasn't". Well, let me TRY to explain this little fact. SOE was wrong, and when they realized that they should leave it in, they said, "We have no plans on changing the crusader horses at this time". But instead of everyone accepting it, and going out and getting a better horse than we had later on, all the dense, short-sighted [ThroggNerfed!] like you screamed at the top of their lungs because we were big sploiters and our bugged horses were making us unbalanced.
Let me repeat myself again since it entertains you so much for me to do so. The horse was not a big deal. It did not give some huge ungodly advantage, or horses would not have been introduced into the game in the first place at any level. If it makes you happy to know (which I'm sure it does because you're obviously a griefer), I still die on horseback! There's this thing called stun. Mobs can cast this on player characters and make even a mighty exploit like my tier 1 horse stop in it's tracks. To make you feel better, I'll have you know that I died 7 times in zek trying to finish the zek run for my Jboots quest. That includes failed CR's to try to get my body out from under groups of orcs and treants I tried to run by.
The horse does not make me a god; it does little more than make me look cooler than you. But that's the whole point, isn't it? My toon looked cooler than yours, and you couldn't stand it, so you had to whine until they fixed the big bad bug.
Loser.
