Unshrink Taivan

I don’t post often, but this needs to be fixed. His whole nature centered on being large. I know everyone has said the same thing . . But since no blues have posted yet, I think maybe the silent majority needs to chime in. My wife who has played since classic, just said “if they keep taking away all the fun . . . . .maybe the dev’s didn’t even do the quest chain . . . They are just out of touch.

You’d think Taivan remaining big would be right up their alley. The whole quest chain was how the centaur wanted Taivan to be this monster of a hunter based on his looks alone and when he didn’t meet their expectations, they wanted to kill him off but Taivan found his purpose in helping people and rejected what others wanted of him.

Agree - he should be unshrunk.

If he isn’t unshrunk, then he should be made WAY more easy to get.

Why?

Because of how the legendary axe was made more easy to get, and because of how reaching 40 in Plunderstorm was made more easy to get. If the current flow of design is to make things more easy to get after they are released then Taivan should be made easier to acquire based upon the model being shrunk.

The risk has to match the reward, and we exist in times where you can easily get legendries, and reward tracks are shortened, so make the mounts reflect this by being SUPER easy to get too.

It’s challenging to get him?

I’m just… I’m so tired of this. Taivan was great. He was fantastic. He basically won DF for me. Now he’s just a barely recognizable wolf. I’m so pissed. I logged in to see how small he was and was livid.

It’s against the story. It’s against fun. It’s against people who already got him.

Clipping issues? How about you QC your game before putting something in? I don’t give a single iota of a care about any of the bugs with his mount. —HONEY, UNSHRINK THE DOG!

Adding my support for huge pup! I’m a couple stupid RNG iterations away from claiming my own Taivan and would prefer him in his original large glory, as the Wild Gods intended!

Please return Taivan back to his original larger size.

He’s the most special mount and deserves to be larger than the basic wolf mounts. I’d very much have some clipping rather than have him shrunken down to some boring average mount size.

A normal sized Bakar mount could be a thing, yes, but it would not be Taivan, and definitely not something worthy of a Meta of Meta Achievements.

I didn’t get to see how big he was because I didn’t him until the evening after the hotfix went out, but did this really need a nerf?
If he was bigger than the Brutosaur, I could see that being an issue. But he looks like a regular wolf mount now, this was too over the top. This was a cool and unique mount for a very time consuming achievement, very disappointed to see this change.

He wasn’t bigger then the Long Boi…just big like a Mammoth …

It still doesn’t make sense. The bloodhoof and DF ksm mounts are monstrous.
They are non mammoths, but are some of the biggest lizard sausages.

Why not big floofy boi?
