6th Indrik mount incoming?

Jolipinator

We all know about the Nascent, Dawnwood, Luminous, Onyx and Pure Snow Indriks, but this is the first I have heard of the Spectral Indrik:

Onyx, Pure Snow, and Spectral Indriks are now visible in the Collectibles menu before being unlocked.

Can someone on the PTS provide any more information about the Spectral Indrik?

I like Indriks, I really do, but I'm so tired of farming them with all the feathers and berries and that decision to put all the stuff into collectibles, so we can't stock up on feathers anymore...

Edit :
@ZOS_GinaBruno let us hoard feathers! Please? Pretty please? Pretty please with a berry on top?

Hoarding feathers means you can skip event content in the future ... I don’t think ZOS is too keen on that happening.

Probably not that much of an issue anymore. Only one more Indrik to morph after the Onyx one. So only four (4) more feathers needed anyway.

1. Isn't it two? Pure snow and spectral?
2. ZOS seems to really like this indrik idea, so spectral may not be the last one

I hope they do not keep making more variants of the Indrik mount.

I'm not even going to use the Indrik mounts, but I have that Gotta Catch 'Em All mentality. No more Indriks, please.

ArchangelIsraphel

I pretty excited for more Indriks to be honest XD I found the events extremely easy to accomplish and I never really fell behind even though I missed several days at times or forgot. Plus I like the looks of the mounts in general. *shrug* Excited to see what the spectral one looks like. I'm going to guess it will be something along the lines of the ghost deer.

I stopped caring about indriks, feathers, berries and events a while ago.

I like the look of the indrik but
they cannot stand up properly when on an incline and they constantly adopt strange angles when ridden.

If ZOS wont fix them, I dont want them.

StormChaser3000

That's a half transparent ghost reskin... ZOS is getting too lazy...

kinguardian

I really like the indriks especially the snow and the yellow one.

I do hope they have something else coming like really cool senches or wolves.

I don’t see any reason to wish that ZOS would stop making new ones, unless it is because you wish they would create items for event tickets that you like more? I think it’s lovely there are a variety of Indriks to choose from. I only hope that the Dawnwood will be made available again in the future as I started the game much too late to get that one.

My indrik used to do that all the time, but doesn't do it any more. I think they stealth-fixed it without telling us.

I like the ghost mounts/pets, so I'd absolutely want a spectral indrik.

Dagoth_Rac

Dang. I was hoping the Indriks were because Summerset was the latest Chapter when the events started. I was hoping we would have some kind of Elsweyr themed mounts for 2020. I not only dislike the animation of Indriks, I am sick of them after an entire year. Time for something new!

Katahdin

Ugh so tired of farming indrik crap.
Just want to be done. Was looking forward to just needing to farm the white berries and be done.

DarcyMardin

I’ve been sick of the whole indrik grind for some time now. I never use indrik mounts anyway...nor do I see others using them.

Jolipinator

Thanks for the images. Not liking the idea of needing another round of feathers and berries for it though, I hoped it might be a one-off special ticket purchase to end the year of the Indrik. I agree with many others about having a diverse range of earnable mounts. I would much rather see a different type of mount each quarter, instead of each year.

For those of you who dislike the Indriks or began to loathe the grind, maybe ZOS made this new version just for you? Perhaps the berries you need to collect are actually poison berries and the transformation process is you feeding the nascent mount the poison berries and it dies and you get the ghost mount? Up for the grind now?

LOL. That's awesome.

They're just there to make people log in and pad out hours, so the player base numbers look good. XD

SeaGtGruff

You know, if you all keep complaining about too many indrik mounts, ZOS might go back to reskinning horses!

Yay!

Player Base & ZoS:
Putting an earnable in-game mount with events is an amazing idea!

Also ZoS:
Let's stretch this Indrik mount idea out at least 5 more years with 30+ variations.

Yes! Even more events to buy the same-looking berries over and over again. It's soooo fun.

You win with this my friend.

Well that's interesting.

I like the indriks, but I'm not sure I want 6 of them. I'm only going for the current 5 because the only one I knew I didn't want was the luminous and it seemed silly to just get 4/5, especially when that was the easiest to get tickets for. I'll probably wait and see what we have to do to unlock the berries and if possible see what it looks like then decide if I want to unlock it or not.

So far there hasn't been anything I absolutely wouldn't do required for tickets. Sometimes it's things I don't care for and wouldn't normally choose to do (like Cyrodiil dailies) but it was quick enough that I didn't mind doing it. My biggest problem has been the short notice before events start and some of the non-PvP ones which put you into direct conflict with other players - like bosses which only give loot to 12 people in locations where there's no way to control how many people join the fight.

But if they keep going with indrik reskins I'm going to be less likely to participate with each one. It would have to be something I really like and want in addition to all the mounts I already have, and that's going to get less likely with each one.
