It's a pretty minor thing, but I find it pretty aggravating that I get dismounted when my mount runs through a puddle. I haven't found anything in the store to spend my crowns on, but god dammit I would throw all my crowns into the store for a freaking bright yellow, blow-up rubber duck that could run over land AND swim through water.

    We need swimming animations for mounts to solve this issue. I don't mind if the mounts get as slow as our character while swimming, but dismounting is annoying.
    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:
    Spoiler
    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.

    They already said on a livestream that flying is never coming.

    Flying mounts spawned a whole bunch of bad apples on WoW. Ugh, never.. please. :persevere:

    Yeah, our mounts shouldn't vanish when we ride through puddles. What is this madness?

    I personally think mounts SHOULD be able to swim but their stamina runs out QUICKLY until it dismounts you. The swim speed on your mount could be slightly faster than normal swim speed for non-argonians.

    There's not really a ton of big bodies of water to cross and most can be jumped across at some point . However , I'd like that to change and have a some form of water transportation in the future . Even if just for fishing in the middle of a lake .

    just make an argonian mount and you can use it on land and sea. You would ride on his shoulders as he ran/swam

    EDIT: you could optionally hold a whip so when he sprinted you would snap the whip and startle it to make it run faster lol

    You regenerate stamina while swimming. While silly when you actually think about it, the resource mechanics should at least be consistent.

    But we don't need mount swimming. I think the fountains provide an ideal limit on how much water your mount should be able to normally walk through without dismounting.
