esp1992✭✭✭OtherMine had to be the Great Elk. A perfect mount for my Warden Shaman.
I even named mine Yakul, after the Elk-Creature from Mononoke!
EDIT: In Hammerfell and Hew’s Bane I also ride a White Camel named Lucy, and in Morrowind I ride a Nix-Ox which I haven’t named yet.Edited by esp1992 on March 28, 2018 2:54PMMY CHARACTERS

✭✭✭✭✭Big CatsI'm an animal lover generally, but big cats are a favourite of mine and especially clouded leopards. So the clouded-senche leopard is easily my favourite mount. It's so unusual to see them in games at all, especially as pets/mounts rather than enemies or background creatures that it was a must-have for me. Plus my main character is a khajiit from the Tenmar forest in southern Elsweyr, so it's perfect for her.
But I like a lot of the others too. I've got and use numerous horses (probably too many), all 4 shadowghost mounts (horse, senche, guar, wolf), the ice wolf, the black sabre cat and I'm hoping to get enough gems from free crates to get the elk too.
The only ones I don't have any of are bear and camels because I don't like the way they move. I've tried both on the PTS and even with the camera zoomed out it made me dizzy just watching it.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

Those are the only mounts I've actually bought. I got a guar and a wolf from event crates, and a horse from level-ups. None of them are skeletal, mechanical, or have flames, leaves, or other glowing parts, or they wouldn't be used.

Zorrin✭✭✭✭✭Good Old HorsesHorses will always be my favorite, although I do think they could use a little TLC to bring them up to the aesthetic level of the other mounts. Senche are a close second favorite though

✭✭✭✭✭Dire WolvesWolves and horses, because those are the two I use the most. Senches come in third.
Bears aren't even on my list because of the bouncy animations that make me feel sick to my stomach.

Aeslief✭✭✭✭✭Good Old HorsesThe Witch-Knight Charger is still my favorite mount that I’ve ever seen in the crown store or a crown crate. I’d love to see more gorgeously detailed and culturally unique ‘mundane,’ non-undead, non-Daedric mounts.2

The black nightmare senche from the Summerset preorder is rather nice too.Edited by Orticia on March 27, 2018 11:16AM0 -
Zeni0s✭✭Daedric/ElementalA ghostly black sench with red effect around her. Quite nice but can't remember her name.

Asardes✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭Good Old HorsesI've earned several other types of mounts but they just don't feel right:
- riding a big insect with a wide back would be pretty uncomfortable IRL, because you have to spread your legs wide and can easily slip; just imagine someone hitting you with a well aimed arrow right in the crotch while playing PvP in Cyrodiil.
- riding a cat with a flexible spine is another no-no: if I try to saddle one of mine with something small, they lie down and sneak from under it; if I insist they scratch. Imagine doing that to a 900 lbs tiger on steroids rather than a 9 lbs domestic cat Beta tester since February 2014, played ESO-TU October 2015 - August 2022, currently on an extended break
