Bone Dragon pet size?

Am I the only one who thinks the bone dragon pet is too big? Some of the Crown pets are less attractive because of their size.

    Can anyone post pictures? I might actually buy this if it's big. Would be a sweet guard dog for my house.

    Hi there, @Bevik!

    We would argue that, at least in comparison to other dragons, this one seems a little on the small side.

    Jokes aside, we really appreciate your feedback. Thanks so much for sharing!

    Yeah well atleast it's not flying around and sets everything on fire. B)

    Don't get me wrong it's a really nice pet but feels too big when walking around people in towns. But I will get used to it.

    I like the size, but I wish it would fly higher up and not directly above the ground.

    Hello @ZOS_Holden,

    Any chance the Bone Dragon pet could fly a little higher, like pictured in the Collectors bundle Crown store image?

    I was expecting him to be flying like in this store bundle image that is used but in reality he's scooting just above the ground like in this screenshot and makes the flying aspect visually pretty underwhelming compared with the crown store advertisement of the pet.

    I assume this is because the Bone Dragon pet is using the same flying animation rig as the flying snake pets.

    Also, the height is the same when on foot, and even the Nixad fly's higher than the dragon.

    I hope this isn't intentional as I'd love it if Rattlewing can fly at the same height as advertised in the crown store promo images,
    Thanks :)

    It is too big for sure, but the details in the pet are really neat. If it was smaller i definitely would buy it.
    They'd better not nerf his size because a couple morons think it's bad to have a big pet.

    Couple of morons? What are you, a moron? Nobody is even saying it is 'bad' to have it, its size is just humongous. That dragon is in the size of a god damn barrel. It clips through buildings because of it when flying.

    Looks pretty big, but that's not necessarily a bad thing! Most pets are tiny in ESO; it's nice to have some variety.

    Of course, in saying that, I can just see it now: pet sorc with clannfear, matriarch, and dragon pet all on prominent display in a crowded city bank...

    Was actually thinking not buying it because of the size and I can understand if people expect smaller pets. It is big, not huge but definitely can use some downsizing.

    It is very nicely done, noone said the opposite, still a majestic pet.

    LOL, even if twice the size of an winged twilight it would be smaller than most dragons

    I am not one to use pets myself...but one of the things I dislike about them is their small size for the most part. I don't want any pet following me around worthlessly, but if I did, I would certainly want it to be more imposing size-wise than most of the ones that exist.

    I think ZoS said in a livestream they weren't planning on adding flying mounts into the game.

    Dead lizard, made with bones only... Fly higher... How could it ba able to fly at all, that's the question.

    Speaking of its size. Lolly-pony - that one is ridiculously big for a decore pet. Sorcerers' twilights and scamps, wardens' bears, and now these ponies. #ElderZooOnline.
    One of the two of us definitely has gone mad. It only remains to define whether this one is the world or me.

    It's a dead lizard made with bones and reanimated with necromancy and you're concerned with how it flies?

    Yes. I know it was reanimated by necromancy, the fact that necromancy exists in Nirn makes dead walking lizard possible.
    But what makes possible its ability to fly, I wonder?

    I don't find the pet to be large at all, in fact its kind of small. It has a wide wing span yes, but it is 10x smaller than the pony.

    I am whatever the people need me to be. A guardian. An oppressor. For some, too distant. For others, too meddlesome. I am the canvas upon which they paint their dreams and resentments. A vessel for their hopes and doubts.
    A mirror. Nothing more.
