i just brought my ancient boa from cash shop for $50 and it does nothing but run. so whats the point of having levels, exp, and feeding it?? who invented this??!!! $50 for something that does nothing and that snake blocks most of ur view on screen lol, and also if u get attacked u need to resummon it and in the process it has 100% drop rate if u die ^^^^^^^ what a rip-off cash item!!!

    ?? You thought it could attack players ? or thought it could go underground ?

    Im not sure what you thought it could do.... b:puzzled

    Its a mount, and it gains lvls when you feed it. So when its lvl 11 :O it will have max speed.
    This game is getting more & more Hostility each day.

    what about the exp of the mount?? how would i gain exp to lvl up the mount if i can't even attack on it??!! lol... feeding it only raise its loyalty lvl not the pet actual lvl.

    Before you complain about the mount, i would suggest that you find out how mounts works in this game.

    Mounts gain "xp" while you use them, so the more you are on mount :O the more and quicker lvl it gains. That means, you dont need to fight to gain XP for your mount.

    feeding -> more loyality

    more loyal mount -> more xp gained and less chance to drop you when attacked

    having mount summoned -> mount gaisn xp -> lvls up -> +0.1m/sec speed gained per lvl, up to lvl11

    ...Wow.

    It doesn't drop when you die (unless its in your regular inventory). It gains exp from you riding it. Feeding gives it loyalty, and loyalty makes it so it doesn't drop you as much when you're attacked by enemies. It's main purpose is to look cool and to get you to a destination faster. I think that about sums it up.

    Be sure to read what things actually do before you purchase them... cause it doesn't give you a reason to complain if you didn't. >_>

    Just to confirm what some other folks have said in this thread:

    Feeding your mount will decrease the chance that you will get knocked off when hit. Feeding your mount will also increase the rate at which it gains EXP.

    As your mount gains EXP, it will level up. Each level makes your mount slightly faster.

    You cannot drop your mount as long as you have it hatched and equipped. If you have your mount sitting in your regular inventory, unhatched, and go red, then you have a chance to drop it.

    Word to the wise, never have items that you will regret losing sitting in your regular inventory. There are banks in most of the towns in-game for a reason, use them. b:victory

    Ok, I was a teensy bit harsh. I'm just a newbie (to this game). I still find it very tough to comprehend blowing fifty dollars on a single item in a game. I understand the company needs to make money or go subscription but, fifty dolloars is alot money. Thier choice. Looks awesome!!

    I like my mount. It gets me to where I need to go faster.
    I don't care about it dropping me if I get attacked. I just don't want to waste precious resources I could use for other things

    Just to clarify, I really don't NEED to feed it, right?

    Correct. It won't leave you or anything like that if you don't feed it.
