    It would be a cool addition, perhaps its wings could work when you jump?

    I'm on board for mount specific advantages such as increased speed for Guars, increased carry capacity for Camels or increased stamina for Bears.

    Mounts are a bit too boring at present. Throwing a spanner in the works would be a welcome sight tbh

    If they did this it would kinda blatantly favor High elves Ad over everyone else


    They would have to give ingame other races mounts just as impressive.

    Otherwise it'd be bs favortism

    Now that I just saw the size of the Gryphons... I doubt they will be made into mounts. Unless they can explain miniature flightless ones for us.
    But pets are already okayed, so that is something at least! :)

    I'd be happy with a miniature flightless one. They can just say it's a different species from the giant gryphons. I want it to have wings, but they can say that this species isn't big or powerful enough to fly with a rider on its back.

    Having a Flying Gryphon would be one of my deepest dream coming true since I love role playing ... since we’ve got the most beautiful game ever created in terms of diversity and environment, I’d suggest that the gryphon would hover the ground instead of flying lest missing of the richness used to create those amazing and unique regions covered by our grand tamriel map.

    seriously, the game engine can't handle riding a mount at full speed within STORMREST.... now multiply that with flying.

    They could just limit flying speed.

    If they would do something ridiculous like allow flying in the first place, then limit the speed, do you realize how much ranting about how slow the mount is would happen?

    I really hope they never cave and do flying mounts. The game wasn't built for it, and so much would be ruined if they did.


    We get it. You've stated SEVERAL times how you feel. Hopefully ZOS cares more about money than a minority group hellbent on dictating terms for every one else.

    I have no idea about whether the people who do appreciate and want to see the lore maintained are a "minority". If "everyone else" really doesn't care about the lore of the game world, there are other games out there that have all kinds of flying mounts. The Elder Scrolls lore offers a difference; if it doesn't matter, then any game with the flying mounts so many people want would do just as well.

    ZOS has fulfilled your other wish; if you want the Maomer motif, you have to buy the rng/gamble boxes. And it doesn't come in a "book", it comes in pages. It will be interesting to see the logs of how many crates are purchased in the hopes of getting all the pieces.

    They can never do dragon mounts anyway, they are not around in this time period. But I am all for Gryphon mounts and the idea that when you hit space bar and they either flap their wings majestically or glide briefly is great :open_mouth::)

    Different colored Gryphon's would be a Big seller for them and if they glided a small amount when jumping ...it would make them so cool.

    You can actually collect all the Maomer motif pages without buying crates now. ZOS made it so due to player feedback. I believe it's through fishing, which is surprisingly appropriate.
