Do you have the Berylglow Nix-Ox Steed?

I got mine a few weeks back, but I very rarely see anyone else riding one. Personally I'm not a big fan of Nix-oxen but I was really happy they added an earnable mount in a chapter. Wondering why I don't see more.

    the only really slow part of this achievement to me was doing 30 bastion nymic dailies, and this was before the changes to make them easier (before the changes for the less ichor and herald seeker nerfs)

    i could easily see that being one of the most difficult parts of the required achievement, unless you have poor RNG with the mythic leads

    Can't get it because my quest states are bugged, so no questing for me.

    Hoping this does get fixed in the update, because going over a month without being able to do any questing whatsoever is... really obnoxious.

    I did the whole thing solo. Mainly did it to support the idea of earnable mounts, maybe next time it will be one that I like more, for now this one is a nice match for my Dunmer necromancer alt.

    I already have the normal Nix-Ox and use it from time to time. Earnable mounts are great, but aren't the requirements a bit exaggerated? Still missing the last antiquity lead for the Dwemer wolf, btw. Soloed and duoed DSC2 several times, never got the lead. Not willing to repeat this any longer so I'll might be lucky the 30th or the 50th time - or the 70th, or not at all. It's not worth the time for me.

    yeah, same for me

    I also haven't finished the antiquities part yet either. I still need all of the dungeon-related leads. Unfortunately they're all from side/secret bosses or activities in DLC dungeons; I can't count on pugs being willing, doing them solo even on normal is wayyy too slow, and I only have one friend who still plays after U35. I'd feel kinda weird to join a guild just to farm these leads and then immediately leave.


    Not to sound biased, but I would bet the quest part + antiquities part are the main reasons why it's rare to see (maybe a bit of people don't like bugs). The quest bug makes the quest part impossible, and there's a lot of RNG behind the antiquities part in addition to the fact that so many leads are from ''weird'' sources like the last secret boss of Coral Aerie.

    I think nix ox are really cute so I hope I get it eventually

    I don't want it.
    I saw that new Nix-Ox has nice glowing belly which can light large area around it. I like mounts with nice effects to entertain me sometimes, and I would collect this Nix-Ox as well - but only if it didn't require any work, because I wouldn't make much use of it anyway :) I pre-ordered current chapter (due to certain real life reasons only) and I barely liked any pre-order cosmetics to justify the money spent - so I would expect to get this Nix-Ox mount unlocked by default to get more value.

    I still don't have all Mythic items from Blackwood and High Isle chapters - and for one of them in particular, I am hunting the last lead for more than a year almost each day :D I don't even hope for it anymore, but it happens to be contained in one of my favorite casual activities... It would be horrible if I actually needed that Mythic item. And I absolutely hate the idea of forcing players to farm leads to get zone achievement (which is required for this mount).

    I have Nix-Ox War-Steed from old Vvardenfell chapter promotion. The mount's face looks scary and cool, and I named him Razor for his teeth. His riding pace is smooth and silent, but overall just one mount of such specific model is enough for me. Owning it really helps me with not wanting the new Nix-Ox :smiley:

    The requirements for the out of the way dungeon boss leads and dungeon treasure room lead for the Necrom mythics are WAY too inconvenient to get. Up to the point where it is just not worth it.

    I did do everything else for this achievement/mount already.

    none of the stuff required for the achievement needed treasure map chests (all of the mythic stuff)

    I got the grindiest nonsense out of the way early and I was relatively lucky with the dungeon mythic leads, so all I have left are the Necrom zone questing achievements. And thanks to the Necrom audio bugs that decided to show up just as I was ready to start the story there, questing is gonna be on hold for a while. So... I'll get it someday.

    I'm not actively trying to get it, but all I'd need is the 30 Bastion Nymic dailies, unfortunately I don't feel like doing an activity that is group mandatory for 30 days for an achievement that was never this difficult to get...for a mediocre looking mount. It kinda bothers me a little this is the first savior achievement I'll never get though.

    Every time I ask in guild chat if anyone wants to do Bastion Nymics, everyone suddenly needs to wash the dog or mow the lawn. Odd things to be doing at 8:30 PM PST, but I try to keep an open mind.

    Anyway, since I'd really prefer to do these with guildies than with puggers and randos, no, I have not finished this.

    Necrom dailies and all that were fine but getting dlc dungeon side bosses when you know people want a fast run queing random, makes it totally not worth bothering with. Maybe one day when im doing a random i end up with them but ive put it behind me and focussing on other things.

    Bastian Nymic is pretty easy even with a pug. They built it with the idea it would be pugged. The bosses don't need to be tanked and there's no extreme damage that needs to be healed. The mechs are mostly simple, like interrupt or don't stand in stupid. It's about on par with a Harrowstorm in terms of difficulty.

    You also have to unlock parts by killing mobs, so you don't have to worry about people rushing ahead. There's no dialogue to be missed. The npc explains things before stepping in, so if you want to hear it just gather the ichors yourself and then shout a group after you've talked to her. So far, I've not had a single failed run. It's all been fairly quick. And the pains that come with normal dungeon rushing is not existent due to the gating of progress.

    I like the mount. It looks really cool and Nix Ox in general are cool mounts. But...

    The amount of time and resources I would have to commit to get this mount is ridiculous. 🤣

    I'd have to sacrifice two weeks of vacation and buy all relevant DLCs, just to have a chance of getting this mount. 🤦‍♂️
    If anyone here says: OH! But, PVP! I swear I'll ...

    Thank you for the valuable input and respectfully recommend to discuss that aspect of ESO on the PVP forum.

    Isn't it an achievement? If so, it's guaranteed. The antiquities are RNG but you'll get them eventually and once you do, you'll make definite progress towards the achievement.
