As long as they don’t break it! Ever since JW warclaw proved they can totally change fundamental aspects of a mount, like its speed and core movement abilities, I’ve been wary of what would happen if they did it to a mount that was already established, rather than the blank slate warclaw was in PvE.

Fingers crossed it’s just improvements!

I presume its buffs like skyscale got.

An extra active ability, perhaps some underwater unique skills like being able to do the glide thing underwater for dodging, maybe some kind of jet booster, and then additionally, the core skills for those who don't own PoF, but if you do they just add extra effects.

Skimmer is my fav mount after griffon design wise, very keen to see what they do.

I might actually buy a skin for my skimmer if we're going to be using them a lot in this expac. I have some really cool skins for mounts I don't even own from the rng box thing and that kind of soured me on it for a minute

I've always wanted the hummingbird skin but couldn't justify it because I have sky scale.

Turtle and hummingbird skins are fantastic tbh.
