    I think people are forgetting those mounts are not on the store. Just because someone data mined a patch doesnt mean every single piece of art work and asset they find will be put into the game. We know senche mounts of some kind will be in the store eventually. We dont know when or for how much.

    Exactly, we've been officially given word that those reskins are coming to the store, it doesn't mater when, because they simply are being added.

    No the only official word is some kind of senche mount will be in the store. All the rest is conjecture. There is no proof except people saying it (spreading rumors) it is the same exact mount only reskinned we get for a loyalty reward.
    Imperial Edition Nibenay mudcrab? Reskinned into rufous mudcrab. Plush pony guar? Reskinned into striated pony guar. Whiterun wolfhound? Reskinned into Windhelm wolfhound.

    What do you think other senche are going to be, honestly. Smaller cats? Cats with longer tails? Does it even matter? A cat mount is a cat mount.

    Could be smaller yes from the hints they dropped. Again you are just ASSuming. Also we get it free where others will have to pay for it. We get it long before its available in the store. I mean what else do you want? The tiger mounts will be a money maker did you really think they wouldnt sell some form of it on the store?
    I don't want anything. :) I'm totally fine with this reward, I didn't even expect to get it until Gary's clarification (I'll be about two weeks short on March 16th), so I'm glad I qualify at all. And I knew they'd sell reskins the moment I saw the Road Ahead. I'm arguing because it's more fun than studying for my exams (even this forum, poor as it may be, is better than reading coursebooks all day long :p)

    What hints did they drop about it being smaller? I haven't seen anything.

    Again you have no idea if its just a reskinned mount. They mentioned in the chat that this particular senche tiger would be different. Then they talked about size of elephants etc. Nothing but hints nothing official.
    None of them will be the size of elephants, that was just Jessica referencing earlier lore telling us what the striped senche isn't. I seriously doubt they'll be anything but reskins, but you're right, we have no proof as of yet.

    Noone said they would be the size of elephants. I got from that they hinted the loyalty mount might be bigger. I dont even care. I just wish people would stop posting all this stuff as fact when it is not confirmed at all. Would you still be upset if 6 months later they put some senche mounts on the store?

    This is why I'm glad they're getting rid of the loyalty program. It's pointless because they will always favor the crown shop.

    The senche mount is not part of the loyalty program. Its separate otherwise noone who didnt pay for AND use up 300 days would be able to get it. Im surprised more people arent upset they will never be able to get the sheo mask honestly.

    I am happy with my 300-day striped tiger, and I always understood that the skin would be exclusive, not the entire model. No surprises here.

    I'll be happier if/ when they introduce wolf mounts. And a goblin morph. And... heck, that would be enough :)

    Looks very much like a recolor to me. Only the mask is different, but that's not enough to say "nothing like the jester thing." Even the rest of the hat is identical.

    What is so special with a mount or anything for that matter if everyone can buy it in the store? Everyone will run around on mounts. How fun will that last? 5 mins?

    Dont get me wrong, I think mounts in the store is a good idea. Better if you could buy for gold in game or earn in some way like if you beat Arena on hardmode?

    Rare things are valuable and you want them because they are rare. If everyone can buy the Imperial motif in the store......the motif totally looses its value doesnt it?

    The mask is the only part that you get. So the mask being different (VERY different) is significant and kinda defeats your whole argument.

    It was said that the armor was from the riding skill upgrades. As far as I have heard or seen is that the 300 day senche is a tiger what makes it exclusive compared to the other options leopards, panther and lioness (If they turn out to be the options, nothing confirmed yet).

    And if this happens to be the case then I'm happy about it, I would pick tiger over any other option, but of course this is just my personal taste.

    Erm, correct me if I'm wrong (someone else, not you), but you get the whole costume. It's just called a Mask of Cheerful Slaughter because the mask is its central point.

    Look closely at the picture; unless the mask has horns, there is a jester's hat attached. And that isn't armor he/she is wearing. Unless fancy stripey pantaloons is a new version of armor. It isn't the same color as the jester's outfit, but it sure does look the same aside from the mask. http://imgur.com/MqhS1Yy

    EDIT: personal opinion; I think it must be uncomfortable as heck for the Argonian who is wearing the plain jester's outfit; how is the jester's mask fitting on an Argonian, anyway?

    Sure, flaming epic horses of legend, now available for everyone for 15E, from farm-boy to archer. One single flaming steed in the game is okay, not a hundred+. If it required some sort of quest where you have to learn to summon and tame it? Then that would be better.

    The mounts aren't going to be different sizes. Once they have a working model at a particular size, that's it. Anything else is overworked imagination.

    The way steeds are included in the game change with 1.6
    You have them available to all characters. Same with pets.
    There's a new menue called "Collectibles" (not sure if that's the exact term) where all your pets and steeds go. Buy (get) them once, all alts can use them.
    That's why all the horses attributes are now character "skills".

    At least I still have my pig! Paid $20 on Ebay for it because I am a collectivist impulse shopper, i.e. a chump who throws away money like confetti on cosmetic digital goods.

    Still, a far cheaper habit than cocaine.

    20$ for a digital pig ? I think it's a scam ! A IRL pig might be cheaper... Next time, buy the physical one :p

    I am indeed a chump. And it's not like I even use it. Very difficult to RP a guy who has a pig following him around. And I can't even name it. At least that would be nice, for people to see how clever I am for naming him 'Arnold Ziffel' (or more likely how old I am ).

    But I like my digital goods. I have probably spent a year's salary on useless fluff since 1999. Eh, some people collect stamps. All I collect are memories.

    But isn't that truly the essence of a well spent life?

    Hey everyone. This thread has gotten a little out of hand, so our moderation team has gone ahead and cleaned up some of the comments that violate our Community Rules.

    To answer the questions raised in this thread, we can confirm that we have no plans to sell the Striped Senche mount in the Crown Store. As Jess mentioned in chat during Friday's episode of ESO Live, we will offer variations of the Senche mount in the Crown Store, and those variations will be the same size as the Striped Senche we showed in the Road Ahead article.

    I dont understand what you are asking. Are you saying because both slightly resemble a jester hat on top its just a reskin? Have you seen the mask has more than one face and the faces have beards etc? Thats a significant difference. Its not just a reskin of the jester outfit. As far as the in-game stuff from the store yes you get the whole outfit. The sheo mask we dont know because its not out yet.

    As far as the armor in the sheo photo its just a demo.
