I don't mind glowing cats, at least there is some Khajjit'ish backlore; flame and ice horses though...


When do the Dro-m'athra Senches drop?

    I love how it spawns

    I agree! I hate how the other mounts just fade in and out of existence.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Honestly what is wrong witha flame or ice horse? Our characters are so powerful that we're able to summon up/converse with Shalidor. Some of us can even summon atronachs. Why is this so amazing?

    Because they don't exist in any lore, in any stories anywhere.

    If there were old books and stories about frost horses that nords rode then maybe. But there isn't.

    Atronachs and all the other daedric creatures actually have hundreds of backstories about their creation, why they've come to exist, their behaviorism, metaphysics and literally everything you can think of in Elderscrolls Cannon.

    Fire horses and frost horses were just made up for a quick buck

    Very cool, especially the entrance; would be worth revisiting all the current mounts and give them a new animated entrance as well. Like having the horse gallop up a few yards and the player mounting as they run by, etc.

    I absolutely love that they have FINALLY justified these kinds of mounts in game and, as such, I will be buying this mount when it drops.
    What ESO really needs is an Auction Horse.
    That's right... Horse.

    I like my striped senche. The fact it could never be purchased and must have been earned is the main reason. Ya this looks cool but think about it. Everyone is going to have one. I prefer unique items.

    Why not both?

    Give it two months, and almost no one will be using it. Like my Nord Hero Costume that keeps confounding people.

    Uhmm are there stories about Dro-m'athra Senche mounts? Could you post a link?

    I mean, tbh not many lore books specifically mentioned who was riding what. I don't remember any mentions of guars, usual senches, soulshriven steeds etc. being used as mounts. The absence of proof is not the proof of absence. Just because something wasn't mentioned - doesn't mean it didn't exist. Maybe it was so common that authors didn't bother? Maybe those books were just destroyed and we didn't get to read them in 4E?

    Interregnum itself is mentioned very briefly and with no detail. Pretty much everything in ESO is new lore. Maybe flame and ice horses were there but then nirn mages lost spells that summoned those mounts? or broke the contract or something.

    The entire game, most pets (and the fact that they could be tamed and accompany people), many stories/quests, some locations, and all other mounts except for horses were just made up for a quick buck. I don't see how it's different. There are no backstories about guar-mounts or frogdragons or dromathra senche mounts or 4man dungeons/trials etc. Maybe they'll add backstories later to justify flame and ice horses :)

    A lack of lore is a lousy excuse maybe no one documented it maybe the lorebook was on that pile of notes that doshia had we burned? We got arvik in skyrim I don't see any lore on flaming spirit zombie bone horses from the soul gem realm.

    We got frozen ice men that attack us in direfrost keep maybe our horse is Just one of those in horse form. Maybe our fire horse is a daesric steed from mehrunes dagon because ya know princes can create daedra and summon them as they please and each seems to have their own daedra types for their realms. maybe he's like yo dawg running sucks ima make a horse too bland ima make it on fire yeah!! Screw lore I'm mehrunes dagon!! Ain't no man or mer watching me make stuff.
