A small clarification to our plans with Mount Equipment–
Hitting level 100 on one character will unlock this system. Once unlocked, the system will be available to all characters, and the equipment pieces themselves will require level 20. If your goal is to have waterwalking while leveling, you can just enable the waterwalking Mount Equipment (there will be one available via Anglers reputation that will be bind-on-account), and it’ll work exactly as before, with the benefit of making all of that character’s mounts walk on water.
note the “all of that character’s mounts walk on water.”
“THAT characters”, as in singular it only affects one single character and that is the character that it is used on, if you want it on all your other characters like it is now, you will have to purchase one for every single character…
For those of us with the water strider, we are not gaining anything from this, in fact we’re just being forced to fork out who knows how much gold just to have exactly what we have now.
