Guild Wars 2 should have a riding mount system. Unlike other games, this feature should not be astronomically priced. You could either buy them at a store or trade them with other players. Rangers could upgrade pets to mounts with special skill abilities.
i think that mount's should be like weapons, anyone can use the mount though if you dont have the right mount mastery (ie. horsemaster, dolyakmaster or catmaster), it'll only ride slowly and throw off the rider if attacked.
in addition i think that a mount in closecombat should be able to attack or add a damage bonus to the riders weapon, at least in the initiating charge.
ie. a knight charging into closecombat with a lance on a barded warhorse should gain some kind of damage bonus. and if that knight dont know how to ride the horse it'll throw him off when he trys to ride with he's legs only.
I would love mounts.
There could be a one use skill (Like capture signet) that you use on a mountable creature to tame and mount it.
It would be unfair to other party members so to solve this a mount would only be able to go a certain distance from it's 'homeland'.
I like the idea of mounts, but isn't there articles about how there isn't going to be mounts for GW2. Then what about people saying it would then be a WoW copy? Those people spoil the fun of every game they go play other than WoW. I think they should keep their hands off what they say they don't like. Wouldn't that be too easy.
Any ways the mount system would not be called mounts technically if they had anything of the sort. They would probably base stones like the bonus imp, or have some kind of potion for temporary use.
I don't see how else they could keep to their word on the matter. I hope they have something of the like anyways.
Also some suggested flying mounts. I am not sure if it could work. There would have to be for PVP restrictions or something like a limited use. For PvE there would be a limited use in a different way of PvP. I wonder if this would annoy people or make it more of fun game.
I would like flying mounts to get to higher areas or collect some sort of floating item or kill a flying enemy.
I also like the idea of a bonus mount, that would give an extra bit of excitement when you used it if you had it. I wish there would be more warning of bonus items though, I missed out on the fire imp because I brought all of the campaigns from shops and didn't even know of an onliine shop. There should be a warning in-game a month or so before the event.
Sorry about that I seem to have gotten a bit off topic...
