[Partially Fixed] Horse Mounts Bugged Animations

Greetings,

Alliance Swift Horse mounts (the epic ones) have changed since the 2.5.2 patch and it’s quite ungainly.

They now very very rapidly smack their hooves onto the ground and the sound effect has also become rather loud compared to other sounds. With speed increases beyond 100%, it gets even worse.

How to replicate:

  1. Purchase a Swift Horse from the mount vendor in Elwynn.

  2. Mount up and observe the new animations/loud sound.

Would like to see this change fixed/reverted if possible, its a fair bit nerve wracking riding around on this thing now. Likely going to change to an elephant or cat in the meantime.

Bug is not yet fixed. Also some new info:

In addition to the animation changes, horses were also made bigger. You can no longer fit through the door of the Stormwind bank and are forced to manually dismount at the entrance :(.

I definitely hope this is changed and soon, it’s very irritating

Just want to add that the horse mount animations are now fixed and back to normal! Hurray! Cheers!

However, you still cannot fit through the entrance of the Stormwind bank on a horse. Not sure why that is still happening.

Here are some examples:
