Possible bug for Blessed Highmane Lion mount

Gopher

Hi, I'm a gopher.

not entirely sure if this is a bug or if it is intentional, but I'm bringing it up anyway.

@ZOS_Kevin (mandatory @ of Mr. Kevin )

The mount "Blessed Highmane Lion", when you attempt to mount it, for a second your toon will completely disappear, then reappear with the effects of the mount upon summon.
This screenshot was taken as I hit the mount button


And this one was taken a second after




At first, I thought it was simply a visual bug on my end, so I restarted the game and ported to new zones, but nothing seemed to fix it.
Can someone confirm if this is in fact a bug, or is it intentional?

Thanks,

AaronGuilder

Confirmed, this is happening to me on this mount also - Xbox EU server

Any chance you can ask about where my zombie horse mounting animation went? I swear it used to do more than just appear.

Edit: nevermind I found an old video I guess I just have a powerful imagination. Disregard.

I'm predicting this will be another case of "working as intended"

You may well be right, it's now almost March 2024 and it's still bugged.

I think it works just fine. Yeah, it's a bit weird that you completely disappear... and funny as you start sprinting while invisible and then just miraculously 'appear'. But apparently, IMO, it's meant to signify that you dematerialize and rematerialize through the beam that shines down from above (that cannot be seen by player themselves due to not being able to zoom out far enough to see the light beaming down).

However, it's also the coolest mount in that it changes your appearance when you ROAR- giving you horns and glowing eyes too.

That being said, I have found a big negative with this mount... it's TOO bright during nighttime. It's so bright that you can barely see the path you're running on- the ground beneath you is will lit, but the brightness makes it difficult to see forward. It really needs a day/night brightness setting- or at least- completely turn it down a tad bit.

It's already been confirmed as a bug, 4 comments before your's.

And... that was in December... it is now March and the newest patch is already about to go Live. So perhaps it isn't a bug after all?

Considernig this mount now has an animation for mounting, I'd say that confirmed it as a bug...
