@Gidorick .....clicked on your Concept Repository link.....some stellar ideas in there. Please continue to update it. I'm hoping ZOS branches out to players like yourself when looking at future updates/changes/etc......simply outstanding.

Thanks @Magnys ! I need to update it as there are some newer concepts not in there ... I too hope that moving forward ZOS engages the concept Community a bit more but I really wouldn't hold my breath.

Ia like all of them but for the root worm.Ugly puppy.Hehe.
However,I wouldnt want them to be only for a certain race.As I like the Silt Strider(as long as he has his lovely calling sound),and the Sabre Cat.I play mostly Imps,and while I do like that giant of a Jutlander,it would be fun to have t hem all to ride.
(I still want that Elk)

Oh, I didn't suggest that the mounts be race locked @Volkodav . Check out the original thread for more details.

The rootworm is pretty gross but I think that's part of its appeal.

I went and checked it out.I really like what you have suggested there.Also,if they made them look exactly like they do in your pictures,they would be worth spending crowns on.Much more so than the same,same,same horses and sensches we have now. Same build,different colors only.
(ok,I could see the worm appeal,going along making squidgy sounds as it went.) XD

You don't understand how dragons work in the Elder Scrolls lore @dtm_samuraib16_ESO .

Dragons aren't born. Suggesting that there be young dragons is kind of like suggesting there be young Daedra. Dragons don't procreate. There are no mother dragons.No dragon eggs. And no adolescent dragons for you to ride.

Just a question:
How come, when I make a post to add more lore or alter current things to be more lore correct, that I get the line: "It's just an MMO. Get over it.", and then get this: "It ain't lore, forget it!" when I make a post about a mount?

Being autistic, the logic eludes me here, so please bear with me.

One does not simply out-lore Gidorick

He's kind of a community lore historian.

Yeah,but they'd all look the same but for the colors.The Gypsy Vanner is an awesome mount,..if he looked like this one does. Wouldnt it be cool to have this one,or a Fresian? That didnt look like the others.
OR,..a Percheron,with his big arched neck and powerful muscles to carry a warrior with heavy armor?

You mean like...Skyrim's horses.... omg! That would be awesome!

I remember him from Skyrim!!

Perfect, all respect to him, still, this did not answer my question.
Where was he when I suggested changes towards lore, where I got run over?
But now he's here saying: "Oh, but young dragons, now THAT cannot be, lore and all, y'know."

Well, how about this, Gidorick, they are not young, no, they are extremely old, older than existence itself, hell, they actually created all, even the gods.
But the one I am speaking of are actually dwarf dragons.
Like real ones, but shrunken in too hot a bath.

I'm sorry: I'm being sarcastic here.
My apologies.
I'm born to be a cynical, sarcastic ***.. XD

What if they ate a mushroom? Or a pill,like Alice?

I did not mean to offend you, I'm sorry if it seemed that way. The community has diverse opinions. I like staying in lore myself, but that went out the window with people in scarecrow costumes. I admit that having small dragons might be a cool exception to the lore, easier on the eyes than scarecrows.

dtm_samuraib16_ESO · May 2016

THEY ATE ALICE!!!!
OMG!

We also need a Secretary Bird mount, especially since it has a killer kick.. useful for snakes etc..

I don't think they are lore breaking, but i doubt they will ever be implemented.

Shadowmere used to make me sooo mad! He would either get in my way fighting,or pick a fight with someone and Id have to jump in and finish it.OR,..he would walk off and when I was finished whatever I had to do,he was nowhere to be found,damn it.XD

A coconut crab..

I've seen a few floaty ice wisp pets and thought maybe an ice version of the Sea Dragon seahorse would be nice.. maybe in blue and white...

MornaBaine · May 2016

I would like to see more love given to horses. Different shapes to indicate different breeds, a heavy warhorse, a racing horse, etc. At a minimum I'd like to see a lot more colors/coats and far LESS Twilight Sparkle Ponies. But most of all I'd like to see us get more horse TACK. Cultural saddle/bridle combinations. For example, something like this for Redguard:

Eventually with something comparable for every race. These should be Crown Store items.

Ser Lobo · May 2016

Honestly, I really enjoy the coloration and styles of mounts. However, I would love if they had 'up armored' variations, either as a new equipment slot that players can craft, or some other mechanic.

I imagine a new mount screen, and the ability to apply new materials (cloth, leather, or metal) to various portions of the horse. The number of slots available would be restricted by your stamina score, so those with no stamina would have no slots, and those with max stamina would have five (head, chest, fore legs, saddle, hind legs).

The armor itself could then by dyable at the dye table, and if you wanted to go this route, you could even allow it to be enchanted, providing the player with small passive bonuses as long as that mount is 'selected', whether active or inactive.

I want a sabertooth mount. Like the sabertooth senche we fight off against in the wild sometimes. I believe they're found in the Ebonheart Pact. But yes, I want those to ride as a mount.

I'd like that but the sad truth is that if they decide to do a sabercat it will be a lioness with big canine teeth tacked on to it's face.

I already spoke about my desire to mount a wamasu, another creature in game that would make a good mount is the echalette-

dtm_samuraib16_ESO · May 2016

TBH: I like most ideas.
When I said to skip all previous, I was, of course, kidding.

Most I actually would love to see in ESO, save for the sea dragon thingy.
I do not believe it would last a long time outside it's environment, by this I mean: it looks too fishy to become a land/air pet.
For an alternative to the whisp I was thinking more in the lines of:
5633116_orig.jpg?700

or:

Demon-Origins-Creatures-Creation-Fallen-Angels-Rebellion-Evil-Spirits-Created-Biblical-Ancient-Nephilim-Birth.jpg

But the original idea could be fun, if it was not a fish.

This brings me to another point that has absolutely nothing to do with pets, save the fact a fish was mentioned:
UNDERWATER SWIMMING, BRING THAT IN!!!
And give the Argonians their Water Breathing ability, that made them so unique.
Addendum: whilst at that, give them back their Tail Attack.

But you could only ride this cutie in the water,or he'd die.

I like that, but I'd prefer a more sturdy horse type, like the Brabants work horse:

I can't really see a 200 kilo/440 pound fella drive that horse you posted, not to mention see it run, and absolutely not for long distances...
Could be me, though, I just think, the horse should look much stronger, with stronger legs.

Why would you need a horse that drives? We dont have carts ingame for that usage.

dtm_samuraib16_ESO · May 2016

A horse that drives?
Excuise me?

I did not aim at the cart, btw, but the horse type.
I thought that was fairly obvious?
