"Players who first obtained this mount were delighted as they kept his full size, making him considerably bigger than other mounts, even though that led to some issues like a comically oversized saddle."Ok, so fix the saddle, or change the design of the saddle. We want out goodest boy back in his original size and glory! And let me give a personal note here. I'm one of the many players who has earned the Thanks For The Carry achievement (500 mounts) and most of those I may have ridden a dozen times, but I do have a few favorites that are on one of my action bars. I loved Taivan so much that he has a permanent spot on that action bar for my main and ALL of my alts. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE restore the Taivan mount back to his original size š¢
That is really stupid, why did they nerf this.
I don't get it... this was a waste of programmer's time for something that makes no difference in game, that players DO NOT want, and that has caused a great deal of anger/upset. Why would Blizzard do this? If it is because of the size of a mount blocking mailboxes or something... there are TONS of other bigger mounts that are worse. There was no logical reason for this, and absolutely NOBODY wants this. Put it back the way it was and stop screwing over the things that make people happy... for god's sake, the point of playing a game is to have enjoyment not to be consistently disappointed.
Put his size back. Then on top of that, make his idle animation where he lays down and then we cuddle up with him.
Boo!Boo this change, boo!Bad call.Boo!
Well at least I don't have to farm for it anymore, if its just a regular sized mount who cares.From interesting to journal fodder for no reason.Edit: the only reason I could see them doing this is if they release an item to the store to make the dog big again, otherwise everyone in the community dislikes this as you have the AH mount and a large count of larger mounts that are more obtrusive.So if the change is not a monetary issue, or a size issue (as there are numerous larger mounts in the game), then it must be done out of spite to the player base.
Some of these comments are great, like, he was big but he was no Auctionsaurus. Maybe his running looked slow when he was full size, but for people grinding Meta-Achievements including 100-200 individual Achievements they want the biggest Goodest Boy, not the modest little brother of Taivan.
The dumbest part is that being big is part of his whole identity! The whole point of the quests is that he's too big to help with other stuff, but he's perfect as a good boy carrier
Literally unplayable
Literally unsubbed because of this
WTF Blizzard
They could just use the new mount idles they added to avoid clipping.
Still hoping Blizz will revert Taivan back to BIG BOI. So sad about this nerf. Cannot understand why they did it. Now Taivan is not the Taivan he should be.
still not fixed. Blizzard what are you doing?
Doesn't matter to me. Frankly I'd rather it be the size of normal mounts anyway. I'll be able to enter buildings then.
