Having played the game for about a week now I've noticed a few nice transportation options; from flight for wing elves, acceleration for humans, tiger form for untamed males that seems to give a movement speed boost but as far as for the untamed females all they seem to get is faster swimming and a werefox form that does not seem to add movement speed (at least to me) so I got to thinking; with the untamed transformation ability and the venomancer's swimming mastery why not take it a step further and give venomancer kindof a mermaid form to allow for even faster swimming and possibly a bonus or two to fighting underwater. Just a thought I had but it could be nice.

    what's even sadder is...barbs also have faster swimming.
    more need for veno to get faster transport if u ask me.
    then again, thats what MOUNTS are for

    the problem is that everyone gets mounts, I'd like to see some kind of faster transportation exclusive to venomancers like the other races seem to get.

    Thats a great idea I think their should be a transformation for venos because barbarians have one to. Although barbarians have the swimming increase speed + to. I dont think veno is a fair class but they are cool and good for dps (sometimes)

    You get Summer Sprint at level 29. It's plenty enough of a movement advantage for venomancers.

    1.) Summer Sprint only works on land (and maybe in water, not sure), but not for flying. Who spends that much time running around after lvl 30?

    2.) Swim Mastery doesn't even work for Venos. Don't ask me why not. They have it working for Barbs, but apparently there's some uber-bug in the Veno code that they've never been able to fix or something.

    3.) The existing Veno transformation, the fox, well, it doesn't look terribly cool IMO. Kinda cute, maybe, but that's it. A mermaid transformation would be a very nice augment.

    just got summer sprint and my flying mount. As far as the flying mount its nice but a bit slow and for a swimming "mastery" I didn't notice much of a boost between swim speeds between my veno and my archer. Just thought I'd add a little bit after I did get these abilities. Even if the swim speed only got increased a little a mer-form would probably encourage more aquatic camps and add a new place to go for venos, especially if it did add some kind of a boost while fighting underwater.

    Actually I was thinking it wouldn't be able to be activated without being in water first.

    Anyone else find this to be an interesting suggestion? Could be kinda fun and it would certainly help and add to it with some water combat.

    It's an interesting suggestion but one I don't think we'll get to see implemented. Major changes like that would have to be done in China - this is just a licensed version of the original game and a drastic change to a class (or addition of a new race/class) just aren't within the PWI dev's power, as far as I can tell.

    Though I *would* like to see a fix to the Swimming Mastery. I didn't notice any change whatsoever after getting it >.<

    Well, they are called Werefoxes (Or you guys call them Venomancers) and they are supposed to be animals, not fish. If they were, they would be called Undines or somthin.
