    They look like weird dune buggies. Soon we'll get a lore revision for the long forgotten Dwemer hover boards.

    The price is great as well. This is a great success for ZOS and I once again say I hope they see how lower fairer pricing makes for a happier community.

    The funny thing is that we all got used to the high prices so now 3000 crowns seem to be 'cheap'. But objectively the mount is still really expensive assuming that the crowns were bought on full price. I remember when the Frostmare was released for 3000 crowns and everybody was like: the price is insane. Now we congratulate ZOS for the same price being 'reasonable'...

    Personally I think 3k is a fair asking price for the mount since its unique and objectively different in many ways from the typical mount. Horses, Lion Senches and Guar are pretty basic mounts in this franchise. Considering how expensive some things like the Elk have been. When it wasnt all that unique or particularly different. Id say this is much more reasonable of a price when it comes to more unique mounts that stand out from other LTSs.

    This will definitely be a mount that... I will not purchase. This will be annoying seeing these mounts running around.

    I know I know I am being negative emily but there is a reason, I hate Dwarven everything. I seriously hate going into those dungeons, I hate everything about it. Now a mount? I think I am going to get sick, now.

    Why? Because we have to pay for cool things and don't get everything handed to us for free? Cash shops keep MMOs running, they're not a single player game.

    Best mount in a long time. Its original, well done animations and priced reasonably (compared to past mounts).

    I think the spider mount looks pretty cool, but I still prefer my black senche-lion mount (2500 crowns) so there's no reason for me to get it.

    The Frostmare was just a reskin of a horse. The Dwarven Spider is a brand new model with brand new animations.

    You realize it already exists in the game....as a spider, right? Also, 3000 crowns is more akin to DLC areas..... not a mount. Costs them NOTHING to make it.

    I broke down and bought one. Not sure why but it called to me.

    It should be immune to terrain slowing. Heck, it should climb otherwise impassable features with that many legs!

    To those saying it's not lore friendly, Yagrum Bagarn in the original Morrowind says otherwise.

    Been asking for a Dwemer Spider Mount since January 2015:
    A massive 24-man Dwemer themed raid (not a timed Trial) that can take several hours to complete... with boss fights that have unique character models/artwork and mechanics unlike anything we've seen in ESO thusfar. That's what I wanna see! Oh and the final boss should be nearly impossible and should drop a Dwemer Spider mount!
    It was a different time back then... so naive...

    Anyways, today I broke my longstanding boycott of the cash shop and picked up this sweet, sweet ride.
    You finally got me...
    Well played, ZOS...
    Really we do it without like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.

    Does this mount get slowed down by every single dip and bump in the terrain like every other non-wolf/non-senche mount?

    I answered my own question. It doesn't seem to suffer the same terrain negotiation issues as the other mounts :smiley:

    I really love my Guars, but they are just too slow for my fast lifestyle.

    It is by the far the most ridiculous looking mount ever. But god damn is it awesome. That ride is so smooth.
    Completely agree. It has a very nice distinct feel to it when traversing terrain.

    I'm thrilled with the Dwarven spider mount! It's cute, fun and was reasonably priced! It was a win/win/win situation for me! Thanks, ZOS. What a nice way to start out the Morrowind launch! Good job. :)

    But what are the 'sounds' of movement like? I cannot have a mount with extremely loud and annoying movement sounds, which is why I cannot use a horse mount. I wish the OP would have not added music and just allowed us to hear the movement sounds.

    It's extra loud, but that's the best part! :)
