[UPDATED SEPT. 18] Choose the Next Shadowlands Mount

A concept art how it would look like would be nice. Making it easier to vote.

Merci pour cet initiative ! Je choisis le Spell tome. J’adore les livres et me promener avec un livre comme monture me plaît bien.

Seriously, whats the point to having just more of the same, BUT WAIT! it looks different… Don’t get me wrong, I think the game’s artwork is amazing, probably better than the other departments, but how about making mounts useful instead of flashy? Like lets get people off the “flying” debate and make mounts matter. For example, unable to fly in the area so winged mounts can do a glide or a flap to reduce falling speed, cats/sabres can jump slightly farther, wolves run faster, spiders that can wall-climb to a degree, possibilities are out there… But no, just more of the same old stuff… and don’t mention the utility slots for mounts, whom ever thought that was a good idea should not be in a position of making decisions…

Ancient is the worst choice imo.
It’s like the gronnlings.
To big you can’t enter any building
looks goofy when walking at high speeds
It’s a tree, A TREE!!

I too am sad about the tree being top. They walk so slowly and they’re too big … and if they walk any quicker, they wouldn’t be authentic.
Much as I love the tome (and assumed it would win) I voted for the caterpillar which I presume would be like the Timeless Isle caterpillars. Now regretting my choice as the tome isn’t winning …

If one will be free will all others in game too? Idea is really ncie, and some events in game need new stuff. So you can add them as spring event reward, halloween or christmas.
Do some oen still remember concept arts from Blizzard studend art contents?
There was Corgo the Ancient Scroll Carrier, The Goaty, and Tikus the Swift.

Nice idea, but to me I think Blizz should give way more priority to other stuff then this.

  1. Update older mounts, because my Black Dragon is way outdated to my high graphic toons.

  2. Fix current mounts, I really stay behind the idea the Pirate ship should also be able to float or drive on water!

  3. Where is my enchanting mount??
    No not the book!

  4. Where is my Inscription mount??
    I would like to be able to create a scroll which could turn a beast or so in a mount for 5minutes. Then, Hostile beasts would more likely, get way earlier angry and attack you while channeling the scroll, then Neutral beasts, ofc.

  5. And why not create all those 5 ideas of a mount???
    But to me, there are enough mounts in game allready, just update/redesign the older ones.

I vote for the Phat wriggly catapillar boi. He will be glorious

Merry and Pippin were riding a tree, Samwise went with Frodo.

This is something I support.
I loved to use my basic ram mounts. But I stopped using them overtime due to the graphic differences.
Now I’m stuck with the update stormpike ram as my only choice.
My wildhammer transmog doesn’t really match it :frowning:

For at least, give us the possibility to also VOTE for UPDATING - REDESIGNING an OLD-model Mount !!! ** I will make a new topic of this.

No need, old mounts are not interesting for me in any way.

Where’s the poll to vote for mount ??

On top of forum.

This is such a cool idea. The only improvement id suggest for the next time would be giving a few sketches to at least have direction of what the mounts are supposed to look like

Whoever not chose the book represents the part of society that doesn’t READ.

As Plamcia says, post at top of forum. You have to scroll down past the message in all the EU languages to find it.
I got very annoyed last night because I didn’t think of doing that and was searching forums and website in the hope of finding it. I may have said bad words at my PC screen too …

its a bit obscure. do i need shadowlands the time i vote? or can i vote without and if i buy shadowlands on release date i still get the mount ? hope 4 blue post.

Surprise us and make all five of them. Knowing this community they are going to vote for mountain sized mount that gets stuck everywhere and noone ever uses. Still a nice gesture for the player base to make us a cool mount free of charge.

How about you make all of them, put them in ingame shop and change the vote thing in the way that we all get the mount we voted for (so each gets one they voted, not everyone the same) as gift, having rest of them available in store if someone wants them all. Then no one gets disappointed and gets the mount they were wishing for and you (Blizzard) will get nice cash from people buying extra mounts and can use it to build proper player housing system for the next expansion (spoilers, it’s gonna be called World of Warcraft: Radiums little house in the Ashenvale).
