No class details in that regard have been released yet. Hell, no class details in any regard have been released yet

It's been brought up before, good luck finding the thread, the consensus was "no". Not to worry though, Heralds are rumored to have 2h-bladed skills, so as a squishy human we might still be worth a damn jousting on a mount. It has also been said that the 2h skills are purely for the summoned weapon, but that's lame, and I'd put my money on the former being true, the specialities are separate: 2h edged weapons and then summon weapons.

All we got right now are guesses and vague dev posts that only add to the mystery. This early in development there's a chance we could talk the devs into getting us a special mount that only our demon forms can summon and ride, I'd suggest the idea, if it hasn't been already.

my wild guess is NO and I think you can be in demon form only for so long at once.

I wonder if you can decide how your demon form looks (to some extent) or will all heralds look the same?

[Rohanna]

im sure the form will be somehwat customizable yet.. but how is the big question. Will their be teired skills? Skill 1 2 and 3. Will it let us design them with slide scales? Will it depends on what resources used to conjour them? Too many unknowns right now to know for sure.

This is just speculation on my part, but I think it is more likely that the Herald's demon form will change by lv (have alternate forms, increase in size, new appendages to match new abilities, etc) then be custimizable, like innitial character creation.

So given that, you will probably see that all Heralds will look the same, who are close in lv. Equipment might also show in their transformations - bringing up the issue of "will all chars look the same bc they are wearing the same armor?"

Another possibility is that there will be a few different demon types you can turn into. So there will be 3-4 different "looks."

If you mean just for transportation purposes, it sounds like you'll only be able to be in demon form for so long, so you would probably wait until you're in combat. That's just speculation, though. Maybe you'll be able to fly in demon form, negating the need for a horse. By flying I mean levitating a few feet off the ground.

1 other thing to remember that a Herald can summon demon weapons I donk thing u be able to use summon demon weapons in human form we all know demon form is form melee I don’t think the Herald demon form will have wings or float above the ground just be a wast of time programming a graphic that u don’t need but we will see when the game comes out
