Among all the "zomg hackers" posts I figured I'd post something constructive thats been on my mind for a couple days. Okay, okay, think of this ooooo *drum roll* a horse you buy with silk, same levels as shop ones. But these don't dissapear when you dismount. Or sell them for like 1mil like the wolves. Or even cooler, they level as you ride them. I think it'd be neat. I dunno though, tell me what you think. And I doubt this is as unique as I think it is, I'm sure somebody has posted this before lol.
So discuss :)

This would be a cool thing to have at higher levels - some kind of "spirit horse" type item, as opposed to the horses we use now which are all flesh and blood. Although... then we get into the cliche "epic mount" thing... bleh.

Sounds like a Super idea!!that would be awesssooommmmeee!!!! a horse that doesnt disappear! that would help so much when i have to do those agonzing treks and have no horses. Pitch to joymax but and we might get it by the year 3500.

That would a good idea, transport like the wolf, if it dies just res it ot w/e, but it would be cool to have alot of diff things, instead of just horses where everyone is on the same things.

i would like to see them sell special saddle at the stable NPC. You would be able to use the special saddle on any champion/giant mob and they will become your transport until disbanded lol

I like the idea :D Then trading would be worth it :shock:

The downside is sum high-lvl WILL have a faster horse and he'll pop the shit out u :( That's pretty predictable.
Only way 2 by-pass that is that ur horse get pet-EXP like the wolf so that u can train ur horse more and also get pills 4 ur horse 2 get faster.... 8)

This sounds so like Hero Online. There they have mounts and pets which are able to fight for the character. I play it during server downtimes.

I really like the idea of a horse that doesn't disappear when you dismount. Come to think of it, why have two different types of horses (trade vs regular)? Maybe Joymax should get rid of the trade horses altogether and just use regular red/shadow/iron/etc horses. When you want to do a trade run, summon your shadow horse or whatever and load it with cargo. This will add cargo containers to the horse and slow it down.

That, IMHO, would be more realistic. If you're in town on a normal horse and want to do a trade run, you shouldn't have to kill your horse just to spawn another one. Just strap some cargo on it and head out. When you end the trade, take the cargo containers off and your horse is faster again.

Also, I think it'd be sweet if you could attack while on a horse (whether trade or normal). Right now if you're on a horse, you're completely unable to attack unless you have a wolf summoned.

dragons with wings and hot flames are Western dragons, Chinese dragons doesn't have wings and doesn't breath hot flames.

and according to Chinese history, during wars, all the generals and elite troops fight on a horse with a spear or glavie, and skillful archers can ride a horse and shoot arrows at the same time.

you should be able to attack on a horse when you're high lvl
