Taivan size nerfed! what gives?

[Eyati-nordrassil]

Check the tech support forum, they been ignoring it for 482+ days

It’s a shame blue’s are ignoring this post. There is not even a reason given why it was shrunk to a 13 in a dozen mount. Blizzard does not seem to care about their playerbase anymore. Why has this been done, especially while clearly 99% of the playerbase wants the original form?

[Lusandra-nagrand]

Confirmed he will return

Taivan Mount Animation Fixes in 10.2.7

In order to alleviate some animation bugs with Taivan, we recently reduced the default size of the mount. This was a temporary measure, and we’re developing fixes for everyone’s goodest good boy. We expect to return Taivan to a larger size in 10.2.7, and we’re planning to test those fixes in an upcoming 10.2.7 PTR build. We appreciate the enthusiastic feedback we’ve gotten on this!

Is it so gnomes dont look completely ridiculous on him??

[Zandos-dragonmaw]

Yey! Bestest boi has been saved

[Obahar-argent-dawn]

He shall be returned to Taivan, not Taismartcar! Glory to the name Taivan, not Tinyvan! Blessed be the very, very good boy!

I’m so happy. Now I just need the right cataloguer’s raft quest to spawn (and 10.2.7 to release)

[Hildrun-arathor]

Says “larger” size - hope that means the size he had before the nerf… But he will be a big boi again - so happy!

[Hildrun-arathor]

I am a gnome - I hope I will look “ridiculous” on him! It will be awesome!

When dealing with lawyers and organisations that have made it a habit to be less than transparent it pays to read the small print.

That is not the original size.

I’ll offer a groveling apology if it does return to full size but if I were a betting panda my money would be on Blizz making it a bit bigger and far short of the original size.

You are a Gnome
You look ridiculous on everything
You even look ridiculous without a mount!
So wish granted

I should bookmark your post

Completely gutted. I’m 3 metas from getting it, and I’m going to finish for the numbers, and the accomplishment of finishing one of those achievements during the expansion, but…I have no heart in it anymore. Give us our humongous doggo back! He’s not bigger than all the protodrakes and longboys running around Valdrakken!

[Gorkar-tarren-mill]

So he’s big again. YAY, but … oh no … he’s now prancing like a horse during a dressage routine …
How hard was it to just leave him be? Honestly blizzard. He had a great run animation (similar to the tiger mounts, buttery smooth) and now he looks like someone stuck something up his backside. Why even mess with it in the first place?
