Water Strider Mounts?

Unread post by Acherontia »

It totally didn't occur to me that these might actually be meant for running over water. The idea of a water-running mount--even if it's just 60%--sounds awesome; is that what these will be? Anyone know? (I hadn't seen any news about 'em!)

Thanks!

As far as I've been able to figure out, The Anglers are in Krasarang Wilds, they're a bunch of guys, Pandaren and other races, who love to fish, and for some reason they have a shark you can ride around on and punch to death. :P

Awesome!! Any idea how fast it is? I'd hate for it to be 100%, or it'd make normal mounts a bit obsolete!

What would be awesome is if they could make it faster on water than on land, making it useful without obsoleting normal mounts :)

Someone needs to introduce the Kalu'ak to these Pandaren Anglers. I think they'd get along famously!

Yeah that's exactly what I mean--maybe 60% on land, and 100% over water, would be awesome :)
