Don't the reptilian fliers on Dath keep up with swoops? I say have BEs create giant versions of those and slap the saddle from the flying mount in Episode II on it.

Both of your ideas have been presented many, many, many, many, many.........(20 minutes later), many, many times in the past. The devs just simply dont havent been given the approval to put in the time to addextra content for a profession that represents such a small population of the player base.

You are preaching to the converted. No arguements from this board.

Faster mounts would be a step in the right direction. There are really only three obvious reasons someone would want to use a vehicle/mount instead of going on foot. Visual appeal/coolness (we probably already have that covered, though flying mounts would unquestionable be off the hook in the coolness factor ). Increased gameplay advantage/combat (not really an improvement over fighting on foot at this time). And movement speed. The big one in-game right now being movement speed.

I agree we need more fast mounts, but even so, I do like popping things with myrifle from the back of my Bantha So what if i'm little slower and cant outrun some of the mobs, I can fight back on a creature mount....

I use a couple Giant Lantern Birds for quick missions because not only can they keep up with my swoop, but they can also CATCH up when they fall behind (briefly outpacing the swoop).


It would be cool to be able to ride the larger cats (ie Grand Wrix) a la Heman!
