Can we have jousting in Cyrodiil please? :)

Jousting such as in the video below would put the new Alliances horses to test, I am certain of this!

If you do not turn into that WW first. The other person will.

*slaps you with a white glove*

OMG that would be a perfect new emote when duelling goes live!

"I challenge you, to a duel!"

Need this as a new emote! Please ZOS!

Also YES to jousting! Especially with the new Alliance mounts!

Jousting a Nightblade, he hits you with his lance and procs velidreth and viper killing you instantly. Could be fun

But only Templars should be able to joust lol with the aedric spear
In fact just make it so we can ride on our horse with the spear and impale enemy players into the ground..
That would be a great new skill..

Don't want to be a party pooper but it won't happen.
It would require precision which is near impossible with latency issues etc
(Hence why there is a soft lock for bows etc)

One can dream though

Ahh yes that soft lock for bows..
So they can have one for jousting/impaling too??
YES!

I can imagine something like

5 players - 2 "jousters", 2 templars with Piercing Javelin ability and a judge.
"Jousters" stand 40m apart, with templars and the judge somewhere in between (judge in the middle, while templars are 10-15m away from each other).
When judge gives the signal, both "jousters" buff themselves with Shuffle, mount up and start racing towards one another. As they get past their templar, he throws a Piercing Javelin into the opposing jouster. Jouster who is hit by the javelin and stays mounted wins.

I know that it is not always possible to knock a player from the mount on the first strike, but who cares - we can always bring more templars to hurl 2-3-5 Javelins at once

Beardimus

100% YES! PLEASE!

Any while we at it can't we have jousting at the Olypmics in real life?? Enough of the dancing ponies and lets have country on country battle!!

It should be called 'Impaling Charge' and should be part of a new 'Mounted Skill Set' that all classes have access to.

Dragon Kights will have the ability to temporarily transform their mount into a dragon and do fire damage
Nightblades will be able to evoke 'Phantom Equinus' where the mount will rear up and kick an enemy in the face with its front feet (like the horses in Skyrim)
Sorcs can turn their horse into something like Gandalph's 'Shadowfax', it would be highly intelligent, strong and able to ride out more quickly when in a group, proc loads of skills and appear to look like a glowing unicorn. Useful when riding towards a zerg..

Well, given that you can perform a CC gap closer skill (thus dismounting safely) while mounted and hit someone on a mount which, if it overcomes their mount's current stamina stuns them and knocks them down for 4 seconds, the person who actually stays on their mount would be at a distinct disadvantage.

I did accidentally morph my caltops to anti-cavalry caltrops on one character. Hmm.
