There is mount equipment to stop that.
You can buy it on the AH or craft it yourself if you are LW.

Walking on water is in no way as useful as people think.

these mount equipment and since they removed water strider ability to walk over water which every took it and blizz implemented that at first place to walk on water… are completly pointless. special mount abilities should never change because ppl farm them for these abilities and loose time while farming while they could do something else… How would ppl feel if they removed SKy Golem ability to gather herbs while mounted??? they invested time and gold to farm the materials… ppl spend time on these things… and yes now it might be not useless… less used but when we took waterstrider everyone took it for that reason

Indeed. I have had no regrets switching to the barding. Not being dazed is such a nice thing.

If they gave me an equipment to do that on every mount I would love it.
Sky Golem is a mount I hate anyway.

I’ve found very little water to walk on in SL
you miss the point here… there are normal mounts and mounts with special abilities. the mounts with special abilities should NEVER been touched because they implemented them in the game for that specific reason. to farm… to walk on water etc. mounts should NEVER be bound with items like these. its want make some mounts unique at the first place. there are over 800 mounts an only 1 for water walking… only 1 for gathering herbs… you get my point? it should never be an item that gives that ability to all mounts
In Shadowlands, I agree.
In BfA it was really useful because there were so many meandering mobs that any shortcut across a river or coastal bay was really helpful. I expect this to happen again in Dragonflight, to be fair.
But yes, for right now, use the barding 
Disagree, if anything a special ability should not be tied to an old ugly mount with so many mounts around.

Water walking is easy to handle as a shammy, but there are underwater mounts as well to consider which are roughly as fast as a ground mount.
So anti-daze barding is just fine.
That too. Can’t even swim in ZM, so all the less hassle. (Except for the treasures.)
But there are cases where it’s quite useful, as well as fun. I remember getting the waterstrider for that specific reason, and because it was cool to have a mount that can do that, especially since water striders are naturally able to do it.
I personally don’t have anything against mount equipment, but I just don’t see a reason why mounts with unique abilities like the Waterstrider needed to have that ability removed because of it. It’s not like it would be OP to have both waterwalkig and daze immunity at the same time. There’s barely anything to daze you while waterwalking anyway.
Replacing the waterstrider’s ability to walk on water without mount equipment is like removing a flying mount’s ability to fly without slapping extra wings onto it.

Again is just a matter of preference, yeah it is cool to have mounts with unique perks, but at the same time it is cool to be able to use whatever mount you like without feeling like “eh if i had THAT specific mounts”.
Sky Golem feels honestly bad to use TO ME. I hate that mount it is ugly and i despise it, but the bonuis is so handy that when i am not on my Druid i would feel stupid not to take advantage of such a perk.
Isn’t that what I said tho? I said I think mount equipments are alright but they weren’t a reason to remove unique mount abilities. Waterstrider could have remained able to walk on water by default and nothing would have been broken by it.
Mount equipments could have just been a nice way to make any other mounts also able to walk on water.
Those mounts would still have 2 perks compared to everyone else’s 1 tho.
Broken is for sure a strong words but, again, why would i get off my skygolem when farming if on skygolem i can have harvesting while mounted + antidaze, when on another mount i would have to make a choice?
I thought it was a brand new thing when I encountered it in Zereth Mortis

I agree the game would be better off without it.
However as pointed out, it is completely avoidable with a permanent equip item.
So it’s not an issue if you don’t chose it to be
Yeah water walking is pretty overrated, not being dazed is way more useful, so unless you’re playing as a tank in the open world it’s definitely the preferred equipment.

Because it would keep those mounts unique as they were, while also giving the ability to other mounts as a choice.
And no mount equipment allows harvesting while mounted, so that ability is still unique to the Sky Golem. Which makes removing the waterstrider water walking ability make even less sense.
I don’t think it’s harmful to anyone or anything to have mounts with unique abilites while also having mount equipment that gives all of your mounts one permanent ability.
If they kept the unique mount abilities, you’d at least have the choice to use a particular mount for efficiency’s sake. Instead we don’t even get to have that choice.
