Speculation: Festival Horse Appearances

I've picked up both the Harvest Brew Goat and Harvest Brew Steed recently from the recent in-game events. After having a close look at the steed, it appears all the bits of his barding might have been designed in such a way that it can translate over to the warsteed cosmetics system.

The caparison, halter and leg pieces look like they can all be taken right off the festival mount, and put on a warsteed in the future. This gives me a little hope as one of the things I really would like to see in the future after the release of RoR is the ability to get Festival gear for my warsteed, rather than a festival mount, or at least the ability to use Snout's clothes on my warsteed if I so choose.

Turbine Dev Diary: Warsteed

This is THE development diary for Riders of Rohan I have been waiting for, and I am pretty excited to see it. I have to admit that it contains less information than I was hoping for, but on the other hand I am actually skipping the beta invite so that I have more surprise when the content goes live. I guess the fact the diary does not contain a whole lot of information is good, from that viewpoint.

The diary goes on to explain the three main types of warsteed, the Courser, the Rouncey and the Destrier; and will give you an idea of what sort you want for your particular class. As well as giving  information on the various trait trees available to each type of steed.

If you're at all interested in knowing more about warsteeds, check out the development diary at the link above!
