Dwarf mounts

[Olszewski]

Ive seen items with wrong animation. WP with shield animation done on purpose? Possible new implement of the 2 hander. Ect...
So why can't dwarf mounts be rams or wild boars? The forum community please correct me if I'm wrong. Would you rather ride a ram or wild boar on your dwarf? I honestly dislike the rofl-copter. I had a Griffon on live purposely just because I don't like the rofl-copter. So why not implement new/a animal mount to the dwarf race?

Report a crucial game-breaking bug and you will get your Griffon back

Trust me I've been looking. But this topic is not based on a Griffon mount.

There was some kind of LotD horse a while back that everyone could use, might see if we get some of those.

Spoiler:

Aren't ye a dwarf, for Grungni's sake? Look harder

The WP shield appearance swap was done by means of a test. It used to be a Bright Wizard staff in the book slot; pretty lorebreaking if you ask me. Thus, the appearance was switched with a basic shield to see how the community would react before we introduced completely separate appearance only items of this nature.

It was a really easy swap that got a lot of good reaction (from Order at least), which may not be permanent. If we're going to introduce new looking mounts for one race, other races will want to ride other sorts of mounts as well, while other bugged appearance items are a plenty for every career (just gotta find them first)

So for now, we're not changing the mounts.

Yes there was. But a dwarf on a horse is lol. Dwarf race in movies and lore used wild animals like boars, rams, steroided muscular pigs ect..

While Lord of the Rings could be a suitable inspiration to Warhammer changes, I'd only consider giving them different looking mounts if it fits in the Warhammer lore. Now I know somebody else reported that Dwarfs in Warhammer lore used to ride pigs/bears, but there is simply no 'ridable' pig or bear model in the game to substitute such a change. We'd have to add in a saddle and armor on the beasties to make it lore fitting, which we currently cannot do.

I think it would be great if we could ride different races mounts like elves in contraptions or dwarves on horses.

I hope at some point in the future this will be enabled as I hate the helicopter. What I hate most in it is when you want to click on a npc but the copter's rotors cover him making him unclickable and since they swing around it's like clickable, unclickable, clickable, unclickable... Always have to adjust the camera or dismount

i love the roflcopter!!!!!

dwarves on orc mounts?? lol

Mounts for the other races suite the lore of warhammer. Ryan I'm not saying that it should be implemented now and before you shut this down with ur comment "So for now, we're not changing the mounts." I would like the forums community opinions bad or good but on correct topic. Since this is not Warhammer online and is now Return of Reckoning this could be something new in the future both reflecting on some of the lore and history of warhammer. Didn't want to make a double post so edit this one. I have to agree with positioning the copter to npc. Another reason I got the Griffon.
