Mounts
This article is currently a stub. Help us by expanding it. |
In Ashes of Creation basic mounts are obtained through an early quest that is available to all players in starting areas.[1]
Runic steed
The Runic steed has emissive textures on its body that glow; along with particle FX that come from it's mane and tail.[2]
Obsidian stallion
The Obsidian stallion is covered in emissive runes that glow with power. While this mount runs, its hooves will emit fire FX on the ground around it.[2]
Spectral mare
The Spectral mare is a ghostly beauty. The textures on this mount have a degree of transparency, and a mist FX flow from the creature into the wind.[2]
Moonstrider mule
The Moonstrider Mule, is a hybrid mule that acts as a slower mount though also allows for the transit of goods (on a much smaller scale than the caravan system). This little guy has some cool saddle bag animations on his sides that show the contents moving around during movement.[2]
Dawnbreaker
Dawnbreaker was a Kickstarter gliding mount reward for backing at the Braver of worlds level or higher.[5]
- The Dawnbreaker has the ability to glide through the air, and has a shimmering emissive that glows on its wings in many colors.[6] It stands larger than other mounts of its type. The Dawnbreaker also emits a dust particle effect (FX) that comes from its wings on takeoff and landing.[7]
- The Dawnbreaker mount's color can be set by the player.[8]
Tidesnapper
Tidesnapper is an aquatic mount that has the ability to glide through the water.[11]
- Tidesnapper was a Kickstarter reward for passing 9,500 backers goal.
Dragons
Dragons (sometimes referred to as Wyrms or Wyrmlings) are able to be used as mounts, others will serve as NPCs: Some will be bosses or monsters that players can fight.[16]
- Dragon mounts are classed as royal mounts (tier 3) that are capable of true flight when utilized by Mayors of metropolis nodes or Kings and Queens of Guild castles.[17][18]
- Royal mounts are 3 or 4 times larger than gliding mounts (tier 2 mounts).[19]
- Certain tier 2 mount skins can be upgraded to tier 3 skins to accommodate the size difference.[19]
- Dragon eggs can also drop from legendary world bosses.[20][17] These will be temporary mounts that exist for a limited duration.[21][22][23]
We reserved it to very very few people per server, which is also going to make it a lot more meaningful when those flying dragons come into play for certain events.[18] – Steven Sharif
