    Yea it does make it feel like a true mmorpg though when everything isn't handed to you on a platter. Took me nearly the same amount of time for one of my latest grinds.

    Log in every day and its 180 days.
    Yes its an long time but mounts got an major buff then ESO dropped sub and they wanted to sell mounts for money.
    Previously you could only upgrade an mount 50 points so less than 2 months and but it was just 50 in stats. you could buy more expensive horses with +10 in any stats so you could get an +60 inventory or +50 speed and +10 stamina or an PvP mount. And you better swap mount before going to Cyrodil or you was on an slow mount.

    Change was move buffing from mount to character and give 3*60 point to spend, if some talk about having to feed mount they played before sub was dropped.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    As bad as the current system is it's light years better than what we had a launch having to feed your horse apples, barley, and something else for each stat and having progress only be for each mount instead of all mounts. OP are you saying that this is the first mount that you've fully upgraded?

    Congrats!

    We raced to get max speed mounts back in the day, it was a source of pride (and Cyrodiil survival) for our team. Nice to see someone took the long route and enjoyed it. :)

    The day after I filled it for mounting I got a crate item, one point in stamina.
    Had to convert to a gem.

    Great timing.

    I faintly recall feeding horse instead of character riding speed skill and not paying for sub when I tried ESO late 2015 (Imperial edition from December sale or something) but did not get it fat before I quit for years.
    Getting lv 10 and doing Cryodiil siege tutorial gives enough AP to unlock Continuous Attack passive which makes the unfed mount bit less useless.

    i stopped bothering with it on my 2nd toon, i started for a bit but was like "heck with this nonsense" now i very seldomly hit a stablemaster while im passing, and occasionally rank it up through riding scrolls lol

    im just going to wait for the day we can just do all of the upgrades at once at the stablemaster like we can for bags lol
