Re: Griffons

Boats are a much faster way of traveling than flying mounts. They are something along the lines of 500% run speed (though you can't actually see the % on the mount window for some reason) while flying mounts are ~250%. The only reason I know they are about 500% speed is that in beta I had a wood elf bard run with his song run buffs and racial run buff where he could see he was moving over 450% speed and the boat still went faster than him.

Re: Griffons

unfortunatly, You can't ride a boat accross land.

Something I have always been curious about, that i have never seen:
Make being on roads and paths a +25% run speed? or something like that. It makes sense that If you are running on a road you would be able to move alot faster, then running over open terrain.

Re: Griffons

Horizions put in a run buff for when you were on a road. It really made you want to use the roads rather than run across the terrain which is more realistic anyways.

Re: Griffons

I would like to know why you deleted the griffons for those of us who received ours via the last days of open beta. These were promised to be permanent on the test server and I would like mine back please.

as I understand it there were some issues with griffons. these issues are probably going to be fixed before they put them back. I'm not sure how many people lost out on them, but I'm sure you are not the only one.

I know (from experience) that the DEV/QA teams will often state something they reasonably believe they can pull off (Hey you guys get to keep your griffon's!) then, when a bug is found and the fix is stated found - what seemed reasonable was actually preventing a full scale fix... (**cringe** they are going to FLIP when we take griffons away)

the long and the short of it is, they will probably be back and they were probably removed as part of a fix. Be patient, they will probably be back
