New Mount!?!

Prodigus · 04-13-2007, 01:47 AM

Anyone have some insight? SMILEY

Britefire · 04-13-2007, 12:47 PM

I wish, i want a giant cheeta. 100pt 230000 st 50gp 80 % increase SMILEY

slashalot · 04-13-2007, 12:58 PM

would be cool to have a bear or wolf for my mystic.

would be really cool to be able to choose any already-in-game as your mount.

Groma · 04-13-2007, 12:59 PM

Who said anything about a new mount? I thought the tinkered cloud mounts were the newest out.

LU34 Sneak Peek says there will be a new quested mount in Loping Plains.

oh snap

ZUES · 04-13-2007, 01:35 PM

I wish it was this....

valkyrja · 04-13-2007, 01:49 PM

Actually, according to the preview, you still are going to have to purchase this new mount but will only be able to do so once you've completed a quest chain. I think this is a great idea since it will limit who can actually get it to higher level players. Also, since it comes from LP my money is on it being a wolf of some sort.

Giland · 04-13-2007, 01:53 PM

Yep, it will be a wolf all right, at night. During the day, you are going to be riding around on a pasty skinned elf.

http://eq2players.station.sony.com/...mp;locale=en_US Game Update 34 Preview With April well under way, the joking season is over and it's time once again for some exciting changes all around Norrath! Here's a special sneak-peek for those of you hungry for information on what's happening in-game. Patience Pays Off for the Coercer Class The brand-spanking new Coercer class hat is ready to roll in GU34. Let me assure you, it's well worth the wait and quite pleasing to the eye! This new Coercer hat promises to keep Erudite heads warm and free from unwanted exposure. Saddle Up! A new mount will be made available for purchase to those brave enough to travel through the Loping Plains and complete a series of quests. If you seek out Heinrich, he'll provide you with all the details to get started. Quest Sharing is Caring Spread the wealth and knowledge of your quest journal with those around you! With GU34, you will be able to share most of your current quests with members of your group who meet the requirements. You can also share quests you have completed with your friends, provided they have met the prerequisites for them. What if the quest involves an item given to you by the quest giver NPC? No problem, this invaluable feature will allow your group mates to receive that item as well when you share the quest! See What You Want, When You Want With GU34, you'll be able to save and load performance profiles, aiding in your ability to control what you see in game. With a simple command, you'll be able to toggle between certain saved profiles. The end result is that you will be able to view far off things while harvesting and turn them off when you are fighting in tight spaces to boost performance!

Josgar · 04-13-2007, 06:21 PM

Its a warg.... a kind of wolf! (heard it on the podcast)

Grimwell · 04-13-2007, 06:52 PM

You can listen to the podcast here to confirm what was just said!

Giland · 04-13-2007, 08:02 PM

but will it turn into a pasty white elf during the day ? SMILEY

selch · 04-13-2007, 08:54 PM

I bet will be a quest to collect 300 new statuettes named with EQ1 players ending with a bloody raid... like always... making it more boring Post-70 if you don't bloody raid.

ZUES · 04-13-2007, 08:56 PM

It should be hard to get. It's not like you dont have options now!

You can gain faction with any of the 3 Maj Dul courts for a nice 40% mount +buffs. Easy to do solo. No guild required

Foolsfolly · 04-13-2007, 11:29 PM

Gnomish Tinkered Hoverboards for dudes, and Arcane Flying Broomsticks for the girls! Come on, we need flying mounts damnit! Alternatively it would be nice to have those super-fast horses from lesser faydark. The speed of existing mounts is kind of pathetic.

Are you serious? Everyone knows about the easy carpet quest in Sinking Sands.

Farrudanu · 04-15-2007, 05:50 AM

I want a Drogmoor like we had in EQ1

Hagran · 04-16-2007, 04:44 AM

my Froglok would love to get his good old Lizard friend back!

Allisia · 04-16-2007, 02:12 PM

Ugh, I hated those. They seemed so out of place to me. I kept expecting a squad of stormtroopers to come in and arrest people for stealing their dewbacks. SMILEY

Lol. They seemed perfectly in place to me for certain classes and races. Specifically I never though frogloks looked right on a regular horse. The Drogmors had the right look to be an amphibian's mount. They also worked well with Iksar, trolls, and ogres, all three of which seemed to beg for something more exotic as a mount.

eniah · 04-16-2007, 07:15 PM

I just took pictures. The mount is - RRRRRR! Look here in the Norrath News SMILEY

Kala Asuras · 04-16-2007, 07:31 PM

Very cool. I see you have shots of at least 3 varieties (spotted, brown, and with striped legs). Could you share some information like the difficulty of the quest, if there is a purchase cost or other requirement, and most importantly the run speed. Thanks a bunch. Edit: I ran the text throug babel fish and it seems like he doesn't know the exact purchase requirements or stats. If you get a hold of this info please do share SMILEY
