We need rare mount/pet drops in game!!

Molec✭✭✭I'd absolutely love to see mount drops from the last boss of each trial. A couple rare pet drops from random mobs would be nice too. You know, give us a reason to kill something.
This is a great idea, just like the skin and pet drops from Molag Bal in Imperial City sewers.PC-EU 666cp+

Lucius Bal - Altmer Magika DK

Warden of Red Mountain - Bosmer Stamina Warden

We already have a reason to kill stuff. It is called quests, pledges and that slim chance of getting the piece of gear we actually would use.
3 gold from a world boss doesn't equal a reason to kill stuff.
As far as the WBs in all the original zones. They should absolutely not drop mounts or pets. They are a complete joke and many of us could solo them before they were nerfed so most everyone could solo them. They also drop more than a mere 3 gold, not much more, but still.
As far as the new DLC, many WBs do offer more. Wrothgar has daily quests associated with them and um, yea, more than a mere 3 gold from that.
So, again, no need for adding this to the drop table. Oh, and if they did add them to the drop table then they would need to delay re-spawn to something like 2 hours since people would just camp the bosses. That would be a very negative effect, all around.
Well the OP said the mounts should drop from the last boss of a trial. My comment had nothing to do with world bosses dropping mounts, I was just showing how there is no reason to kill stuff in this game.
Your comment had everything to do with WBs. It's was specifically and only about WBs.0 -

✭I keep saying, mounts, skins, pets, and dyes should be part of completing hard content. I love that Vet Maw has an exclusive skin and I will make it mine.0 -

✭✭✭There are 2 pets that drop that I can think of, The Stonescale Scamp from IC sewers, which is a rare drop and I have, and the Necrotic Hoarvor. Rare mounts would be awesome though.
Other rare pets and mounts that were available are the "Beta Monkey" and " Striped Senche", but those were special cases.
As to OP, there are some already, but would love to see more!
Huzzah!

Correct. As I said, I wasn't referring to the OP's suggestion. I was merely showing you how there is no reason to kill things in this game. For example, world bosses dropping 3 gold. Can you understand that?0 -
Tobius✭✭✭Not so sure about this, I played a lot of FFXIV where certain pets or mounts dropped only from certain bosses or in specific chests in dungeons... if I remember right, only one might drop and had to roll to get it so got frustrating. Been a while since I played, so I could be remembering wrong."Remember: Sometime the Dragon wins."1 -

✭✭✭Everyone like and want everything for free...
You miss the boat. If this were a standalone game you'd get a sense of accomplishment from earning something. Unfortunately this sense of accomplishment is all too often lost in b2p/cash shop MMO's because they simply sell everything, and everything is better from the store. In many ways I agree with the OP, because it does kill part of the fun of an MMO. At the very least they aren't selling armor/weapons in the crown store.
I realize that obtaining Arvak in Skyrim is not a huge accomplishment, but there is a certain sense of 'ahh that was cool' once you've acquired and can use it.US/AD - Dodge Hopper - Vet Imperial Templar | US/AD - Goj-ei-Raj - Vet Argonian Nightblade

Ragemar✭✭✭If you got a mount from a raid no one would pay the gold for the ones at the stable. Then it should be changed to a raiding skill from vendor that you would have to buy before being able to ride.
Gold sinks are there for a reason.
But other than that, yes I would love seeing some more things drop than the 3xRNG-Gear then it might not be as frustrating farming trials over and over.0 -

Hey, you never know what weird things the monster's eaten over the years.
Despite some really silly posts about "wanting things for free" the idea of cosmetic items being dropped by elite monsters is nearly as old as the medium itself. This is how it works, just like in D&D, when the players finish slaying the dragon and they find the Dragons Egg stashed by the Hoard.
I maintain that a Senche Mount, rare horse, skeletal something, Giant Clanfear (yes Lore hounds, I know they're incapable of being domesticated, and are practically just let loose when summoned or set on enemies) as trial drops would be good for the game.
World Bosses later placed in new zones could have rare cosmetic additions to housing, dye packets for those pour souls who have to buy dye stamps, and other cool stuff. It would make content even more replayable.0 -

✭✭✭✭Problem is, just like the skin in Veteran Maw of Lorkhaj, a casual complaining conundrum. "This trial is too hard for my hybrid double bow vampire sorcerer" and then trials get nerfed. I'd rather not have the cosmetics crowd ruin hard content.Edited by Woeler on August 1, 2016 4:08PM0 -

Therwind✭✭✭Yes, their should be some type of pvp mount also. Maybe have one of the tuffer banner men drop a super rare alliance mount??0
