PTR Gryphons mount are changed?

[Sasrei]

I thought my bird mount looked a little wierd they got an overhaul! It doesnt look finished cause there are no eyes.. and see through butt but they are for sure different then before! not sure if this was posted somewhere.. but if it was sorry haha

Before


after the new build

/kek. That's quite hilarious.
Looks like the armor graphic has entered unwanted places, like what happened with the drake models.

[Sasrei]

the drake model... it has a butt that doesnt stop and hips that never end!

This gryphon looks really amazing though, the wings instead of looking like wings its armored wings, and its.. alot hairier and has more white it does look unfinished which is why I thought maybe there was some sort of glitch but the wings are totally different and so is the helm, it used to be the color of the mount was but now its pure solid gold and they look more majestic then before. I really do hope the fix it up and go with this model cause its soo amazing, you can see the detail work in it.

Oh! and did you try walking the drake? its hips move back and forth and its way more noticeable so it looks like hes shaking his butt at you

[Lisaara]

Oh wow...

[Lupis]

Oh, hey, can you check if the non-armored Gryphons still have that graphic glitch where the lion half doesn't meet the eagle half and sticks way down? (You can see it from below/at the side)

O.O...

Ew, I hate the armored wings. I doubt any creature could realistically fly with full armor over its wings as that would inhibit movement. I really hope that's just a glitch and not a true overhaul.

Given the fact it has NO head, that its chest armor is now colored like it's head, that it is tailess and the wings have the chest armor detailing and well the fact IT HAS NO HEAD.

It's a glitch.

Can not unsee faceless griff D:

I know, I figured as much, but some people were almost making it seem as if the wings are intended (I may have read wrong). If the wings are/will be in any way intended, I think it's a bad move. I was just stating that I hope it's a glitch as clearly the rest of the gryphon is a glitch.

Poor...bird? o.o;;

[Cialbi]

I'm sorry, but the armored wings look hideous - makes the poor thing look like a cyborg, as if some nasty gnomes decided that our gryphons' wings were too weak and needed to be amputated and replaced with mechanical wings. Not to mention the low-quality 2D graphics look like crap.

The rest of the model is unintentionally glitchy form what I can tell, but if the armored wings was an idea that they were thinking about implementing, it's not a good one and should be forgotten about.

[Kalliope]

This was fixed in the latest build. Thank goodness.

[Cialbi]

Come to think of it, that does look like all the textures for the gryphon's armor somehow found themselves mapped across the wings. So, I'm chalking it all up to a glitch or glitches that have now been fixed.
