So who is gonna take one for the team & buy the Chroma-Blue Dwarven Spider Mount?

Looks like their greed is getting the better of them again.

Of course greed is getting the better of them. It's what happens when too many people praise the lower end priced items that appear once in a blue moon. The sweet spot for ZoS is obviously no one shouting "Bargain" and not too many complaints the other way.

Which mount were they saying was 4000 crowns, though. There are two mounts coming out. Both are just recolors, not new meshes. I don't see how either of them are worth 4000 crowns, as nice as they are.

It lists the dates, only the dwemer mount is limited time

I don't buy reskins

There's only one reskin I would buy: Brown Stag/Elk. (Arguably the most expensive mount to begin with.) I've wanted this since the day I saw brown stags in Wrothgar.

How much was the spider first time around?

Minyassa

I will be getting the blue spider. I adore my brass one, and the toon that has it is exactly the sort who would fill up a garage with cars if they existed, so yes, he needs it. I'm hoping that blue will go with the Vehk's Mystic Blue I do his outfit trim with.

I believe it was 3000. I remember it was less than the kagouti I'd been coveting so hard that was definitely out of my price range, so I snapped it right up.

Diggitydug

That's what I thought as well. I hope the price the reskin at the same price. Otherwise it will feel a bit gougey.

This Chroma Blue Spider mount was made to complement and match the Chroma Blue Spider pet that came with the CE of Morrowind.

Lylith

i've got the first one, so i think i'll let this one pass.

So this re-skin is 1k crowns more expensive... Nice one, ZOS...

Will this be available for crown gems, or just crowns?

There'll be a dwemer centurion mount next that we will climb inside and stomp around in, like power armour.

I'm glad I don't care about that mount. I hate flashy lights. I'm just fine with the plain one.

BloodWolfe

I have the first one so this is a big NOPE!

Im actually surprised, I have rarely seen any players with the first spider mount. I was sure that the spider mount was going to be the most popular mount ever but it doesnt look like many bought it.

So I am going to assume the blue chrome version will be even less popular. It doesnt look very good with that blue.
I definitely wont be buying it.

i was actually prepared to get one... then I saw it, and how it worked... great idea for a fun mount, but horrible execution.

I really like that pet. Lots of cool animation in it's 'move set' and you can see the gears continuously whirring inside the chassis. That pet is the sole reason I'm also a bit interested in the Chroma Spider.

Where do I find the future releases with prices on them? That would be a very helpful bookmark. I've only seen the previews without prices on them.

I had already decided against getting this one, since I have the previous one. Just don't need another one with the only difference being some blue trim. Yes, I have the spider pet from the pre-order, so the mount would match. But, I also have Razak's Opus, which matches the original spider mount.

Plus, at 4k Crowns? Just, no. I had decided no based on a 3k price assumption. Now it's definitely no at 1k more! Seriously, an additional 1k for adding blue lights? And, if someone had missed out on the previous one, for whatever reason, they have to pay 1k more to get this one.

I love my spider mount - definitely the smoothest ride in the game and much more lore friendly than the stupid crate ones.

Not me. I guarantee you it's gonna end up look goofy on 90% of characters.

Here's the thing about the dwemer mounts.

In Morrowind the character who rode that mount was grotesquely obese. That's the association I have with that mount.



Grotesque obesity is not regarded as attractive, cool, or appealing in our culture.

Speak for yourself

Volsera

I took one for the team and bought it. I love my walking mechanical toilet

Octopuss

I bought it. It's awesome. Also has nice offroad skills.

iiYuki

Seen a couple of players with it, though not as many as expected, all day stood around Elden Root and counted less than 10, looks pretty *** tbh. loved the little dragonfly so I got that but the mount is awful especially for the price, 4k crowns? *** that.

Minyassa

I snapped it up the second it was in the shop. I'm trying to train ZOS to realize that putting cool mounts in the store outright instead of in crown crates will make them more money.
