On the 10.1.5 PTR they’ve updated it to use the slitherdrake animations! It looks glorious!

Making me miss my gif / picture postin’ powers.
That animation is way better. Still a noodle but now I don’t feel dizzy lol
Nice. I really liked the look of that mount, but the janky animations turned me off from actually using it. Guess I’ll dusting off the cobwebs once this goes live.
Woah. This mount is actually usable now. Nice.

i’m very happy…hoping this one is also on the dragonriding list. probably one of the nicest looking mounts of all time.
wonder if this series of pixels will be trading postable in the future? 
I’m cool with this! Looks good!
Looks much more dignified now.
Woo this will actually be a good pally mount now.

Apparently I’m the odd one out. That’s not a “fix” to me. It ruins the dragon, imo. So I guess another I can blacklist from my favorites. Oh well. Guess the rest of you get to enjoy it, at least.

Nice. I bought this mount when it came out. Rode it for thirty seconds and dismounted. Never to be summoned again. It actually gave me motion sickness. Most of the guild were upset by this mount.
Anyone have a gif of the old animation?
I never used it just because it seemed like an ugly asset Frankenstein tbh
Can we dragon ride these?
I hope they keep the old one as well. You know give us the option to use either.
this change is really bad, i returned to the game to find one of my favorite mounts has been nerfed visualy and by removal of the /mountspecial 
if they wanted this other lesser version to be in the game they could have added it not nerf/replace a mount you paid for.
