Omg the raptor looks like Godzilla.

Yeah, I rather enjoy watching the Raptor swim. The animation was rather nice.
What I find hilarious is that almost all of these mounts have had water animations forever, and it was only ever used for that brief moment between being submerged and disappearing. All I can say is, this change is LONG overdue.

Heh, Many of them just look like they're walking underwater =P But the bears, raptor, and Hawkstrider look especially good ^^

I think my tauren will be grinding exhalted with Sen'Jin to get his raptor mount.. either that or losing 30 AV's in a row for the war raptor. Decisions decisions..

or you could get rep from them with the Argent Tournament coming up.

/sigh
The wolf animation proves that they truly hate canids in Blizzard :/
Riley Feb 27th 2009 11:18PM
yeah it looks like an injured walk, not a swimming animation
Mister EDgAr Feb 27th 2009 10:03PM
And the best swimming animation goes to.. the Raptor! ^^
I always thought that a kodo in water would sink to the bottom!? I wonder who is full of air, the kodo or the taurren?

I'd like to mention that Druids in Travel Form can also swim now.

beware of the new kings of the sea. RAPTORS!!!

Am I the only one confused about that change? I mean... I don't see the point in giving mount the ability to swim. I understand walking over small water spot where there's no dismounting and all, but giving them the ability to actually swim in the sea while you're on the back of one of them sounds like a pain in the ass for that poor little mount. = /
Was there that much whining from people dismounting in water that blizzard just said "Ah, fuck logic" and gave them what they wanted? Unless we go faster in water by being mounted, sounds like a weird idea to me.

I guess you never quested in Dustwallow

or maybe it could be that the next expansion will be based around water...maybe the Maelstrom????
