That's right there is some water you can do it in but I think if you go in with mount it dismounts you. But you can't go underwater and there are waters that will kill you cause slaughterfish.

It's not the fact that you are in water that causes the slaughterfish to kill you. It's because you are getting outside the boundary of the game. That's why it only happens along the coast and not in inland lakes or streams.

Ah well I remember in cyrodil at least most of the water kills you regardless of if in boundaries probably to prevent people sneaking across the water. Even the water by the bridges kills you.

Or a Dwarven spider mount made out of metal?

So can wolves, tigers, bears and most other animals.

Think about it ZoS. Give Argonians some other passive (or add more to the current one, since they got nerfed this patch), and let us not be dismounted when we enter waist deep water.

The speed can be no faster than unmounted if you want, just stop the dismount. It's pointless and even immersion breaking.

Thanks for your consideration!

On the other hand, have you ever seen someone raiding on a tiger, wolf, bear or guar? or on their undead versions? or burning versions? no, exactly, it's just the game and it needs more crucial QoL changes and fixes. And we still need a "running on a mount" bug fix. Soooooo no, thanks but I can live with my mount hiding in a pokeball each time I go for a swim.

Which is a shame cause it cuts out soo many possibilities like underwater areas of delves and dungeons and secret hidden places underwater.

I hope someday we'll get this, as well as flying mounts

And we still need a "running on a mount" bug fix.

It would actually look amazing if player was running on the mount while underwater...

Dwarven spider would use new animation for swimming, like all other mounts.

I like some places in Vvardenfell, where I can ride through the watery areas without dismounting It feels like my mount is swimming.

The river up to IC between AD and EP will kill you, same with the lake around IC, probably some other places to guess the border river south east for EP. Water in Cyrodil is generally not dangerous unless borders

Now the slaughterfish in Cyrodil is very lethal and tend to instantly kill you. I guess this is so people can not try to cross with help of healers.

Animals with a rider cant swim.

Deep water that will knock you off your horse looks different than shallow water. It is easy to avoid.

Yah they actually can. People have done it and can do it. It's no big deal.

You mean like orcs in full heavy armor? That's one helluva horse.

Sink like a stone pony.

Through Dwarven ingenuity.

no sane being would swim when there might be slaughterfish involved

Yes, yes I have...

I can deal with the water, my problem is when I try to jump over the water hazard suddenly grabbing a torchbug takes priority over jumping lol.
