Report #1257
Skillset: Cavalier Skill: Various
 Org: Serenguard Status: Completed Aug 2013
Furies' Decision:
Solution 1, 2, 3.
Problem: Cavaliers are required to be mounted in the heat of battle. The
following skills cannot be used while mounted, which causes an additional
inconvenience in order to use them that other warriors don't face. In this way,
one effectively does not have the same access to his skillsets, which may be a
small oversight.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #1: One cannot charge while mounted. There does exist
 STEED CHARGE in Cavalier which does effectively the
 same thing, but costs 1 power and requires two
 directions. Perhaps change this skill so that the
 second direction is optional and costs power, so that
 one could STEED CHARGE in a single direction for free
 if one desired.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #2: A user of totems cannot SEIZE in the trees while
 mounted. Add this to the list of skills that one can
 use with advancedriding. If need be, perhaps change
 the message for when someone is mounted to make this
 more role-play friendly. Perhaps consider
 tree-climbing as a pre-requisite beast skill for this
 as well.
[A: 0 R: 0] Solution #3: One cannot barge (neither doors nor people) while
 mounted. Perhaps add an equivalent skill in Cavalier
 or remove this restriction.

All supported.

Do solution 1. Then do solution 3. Finally, follow up with solution 2. In
that order. Also, if you want another quality-of-life thing for beasts- make it
so that CLIMB UP / CLIMB DOWN does not dismount you if your beast is trained in
climbing.

That would be nice too, Xenthos. Other beast skills behave that way (burrowing,
fly), so it would be a welcome change.

All of these changes are fine by me.
