Buy The Stick Mount!
-
nudel✭✭✭✭✭YesMy PvE guild has decided that for non-score runs, we will always slot our stick mounts for Hel Ra Citadel. Hitting Rapids and running with sticks in tow has become a tradition already. It is a thing of beauty, especially when the healers have to decide if they should keep riding their stick to the top of the stairs or dismount to save the ppl who were already knocked off their sticks behind them.
I do not regret my purchase!
EDIT: I apologize in advance to any pug groups for HRC I join in the future. I will be slotting my stick mount. Sorry not sorry?Edited by nudel on March 24, 2019 8:20PM2 -

✭✭✭✭✭YesNext fake mount should be two coconuts you clap together while galloping. Only cool people will understand that one.3 -

The cool people already have family members doing that behind them while our characters ride the stick horse.

✭✭✭✭NoI was going to. I was so excited for the dragon one. I was absolutely prepared to buy crowns for it. But they have made it for gems, and I'm not spending a couple hundred dollars on crown crates full of stuff I'm not interested in just to get the gems for that one thing. Once again their decision to make something available for gems has resulted in them getting less of my money instead of more of it.1 -

✭✭✭YesI got the horse (love horses and this is another to add to my collection!). Did vAA last night and at one point during while group took a quick break, a couple of us pulled out our horses and galloped around everyone else in circles, neighing and jumping. It was a blast.

I didn't mind so much that it was for gems, but 350???? For 350 gems I'd expect a real flying dragon mount that can shoot fire and pick up sheep mid-flight.1 -
DR4GONFL1✭✭✭✭YesInitially, I thought I would, even though the EP Dragon stick-mount is 350 Crown Gems. But then I found out that riding and stamina boosts don't affect it, and I changed my mind.
I think they do. I'm able to sprint on the mount for ages before it runs out of stamina. So it's either not affected by your stamina skill, or they give you a heap of stam by default.
Incase anybody is wondering, you can also use rapids while on the "mount". If you're looking for something quirky and have the crowns spare, it's definitely a worthwhile purchase. With it you get; weird neighing sounds and spluttering to emulate a horse while jumping, a bow emote (like actors/dancers do at the end of a theatre show) when you press jump while still, and while idle your character just randomly starts stroking the stick mounts head.
So I'm not sure about the cost of the dragon stick mount but my buddy and I each bought the horse and it easily worth the cost. And honestly the horse mount is my favorite one anyway. Yea its ridiculous but that's the point to have a little fun. Its not something I'm going to ride much outside of town or city but thats not really what its for.
Among everything already stated it can also be placed in your house as its listed under mounts.2 -

✭✭YesYes, and I'm getting a bunch of silly entertainment out of it, even if I still think it's priced too high. The reason I got it now is I have a bunch of crowns from the sub renewal and crown sale last year, and there hasn't been much else of interest to me the past few months in the store. So I had the extra budget to mess around with this month.Main: Drio Azul ~ DC, Redguard, Healer/Magicka Templar ~ NA-PC

✭✭✭✭✭NoIt's clever and funny, but I don't want to spend real life money on something that would just be a joke item in a game, that I wouldn't use all that often.1 -

✭✭NoI got the stick horse. I held off on the guar but I'm curious what it sounds like.
The stick dragon is about a hundred dollars outside of my price range.
I had a lucky moment yesterday when I could capture both Novelty Stick Dragon and Novelty Stick Guar mounts jumping together

Finally we can hear how the dragon "roars"!
...When will we have ability to preview mounts in store before buying them (I mean, full preview with sounds and movement)?
