actually i already have 2 a light horse and an ignis steed. So what if there are no 10k gold horses left. I'm sure it wouldn't harm anyone if you speant a little xim on a mount.

Anpu: I know people have problems with buying xim in their countries and this is something NGD have to sort out should complaint threads like this keep popping up.

I'm not so sure the issue is about having a horse or not having a horse. It is about the imbalance created when you allow premium users to have this advantage and don't leave a (lesser) alternative for the non-premium users.

I was attacked by an archer once, he knew he was going to lose so he hit me with ambush (4) and rode away on a horse before i could get up

The Light horse has a VERY reasonable price. This is the first time i actually paid for a game, I just wanted to have a horse. Now I also started buying boosters by sms, once you sms for a horse, you continue smsing for more stuff, like paint etc. This way NGD will make even more money, so I think it's a very good idea

What I see, is that horses aren't that fast, they should be faster imo. So the "imbalance" you're talking about isn't that big. And there will always be "imbalance" between premium and non-premium, premium pay for the game, they deserve to get better gameplay.

the issue over horses, imo, should not be over who has them (rentable horses should be option for everyone), nor how fast they go (all horses should be same speed). Premium horses are, imo, premium because they are premanent, and name-able.

Rentable horses should be re-introduced for those who cant or wont buy ximerin, but should still remain 24 hr and 7 day options, and should not be name-able. So, they should come back as they were before update, while keeping permanent horses as an option.

Awesome. But I think the mount speed shall be upgraded with 10-15% more. It's really not that fast atm. And yeah I suggested mounts to last a lifetime after you buy them now like 1.5 years and it got developed

So it's actually your fault I have to run 10 minutes to get somewhere with my slow mage? It's fun really. 10 minutes of running, 5 minutes of fighting, dead, 10 minutes of running, and so on. They should've nerfed YOU!

I don't think it was your suggestion that made NGD implement the variable horses AND special mounts. The horses were in the game already but without rugging yet.

The maximum possible speed anyone can run is +50% (yeah, I'm aware it's been brought up that speed bonuses aren't what they used to be after the 20% speed boost but let's ignore that for now). Horses run at +50%. Any faster would widen the gap between premium and non-premium users (by allowing premium users to quickly mount and get out of the 'danger zone' faster).

Hm? My fault? Why because I suggested horses :P But yeah a bit faster horses would be awesome because it's really slow and you have to go a lot
