Riding Side Saddle

Which races ride side saddle? I find this looks really terrible and wish to avoid creating a character that I will only delete at level 11... Can someone please list all the races/genders that ride side saddle and if any races ride a different way?

There should be an option added to make them ride normally imo.

wait. you're deciding on a race because of how they ride a mount? huh. to each their own.

if the intro cutscene was any indication, Casta female and HE female ride side saddle. but that's only according to what I've seen in the cutscene prior to landing on the Island of Dawn.

i believe its just three;

castanic females

human females

and high elven females

i personally think that it looks quite sexy, plus it makes more sense due to those three combinations there have lots of dresses or dress like armors, so technically sometimes theyd have to ride side saddle :P

but thats just me, we're all entitled to our own opinions :) so yeah, those are the only 3 i believe.

strangely enough, the human female in the starting cutscene doesn't ride side saddle. weird.

Yah I didn't think it would be a big deal but upon reaching level 11 on a female human sorc I just hated it... Makes them feel...I dunno..."weaker"? I don't think its the right wording but I am certainly not a fan and the fact that I have to watch the toon non stop makes it a big deal for me.

Amani women the only women with any dignity. (•_•) Just watching how the other races run makes me wish they would get off the battlefield and let a real soldier go to work.

I like it, personally. Gives them a bit of elegance. Same reason why I like that most females wear high heels, I guess.

Remember that they're adding new mount types now, and if you got the CE (or if you went to or had a friend that went to PAXEast) you'll get a Regal Frostlion mount, which I've seen pictures of Castanics riding normally.

Elin's also ride normally. I guess they would fall off if they rode Side saddle. lol.

I personally like the side saddle riding as it's a nice mix up from every other MMO I've ever seen where everyone rides mounts the exact same.

Either way I'll be playing an [Male]Aman because their cloth armors are f*ckin' awesome looking.
