Couple of questions about horses :)

thesmallsmithgamesb16_ESO
Hello!

I am a little confused over the horses in ESO. There are 2 types of horses so to speak, the cheap horse and the expensive horse. Now overall, am I right in saying that the expensive horse, if upgraded down a single line(stamina, speed, capacity) will provide either a 10% speed increase, 10 extra capacity spaces (bag space) or 10 stamina over fully upgrading the cheaper horse in the same lines?

If this is the case, is the quite large price difference really worth it? The only one that really sticks out is the 10 extra bag spaces as possibly being worth the extra gold. 10 extra stamina and 10% speed do not seems that great considering the amount you would pay.

I was thinking about getting the store horse for £9.99 which is equivalent to the Common Horse (the cheaper one). Would that be a waste or should I wait to save up for a more expensive. Also, would it make sense to have 3 different horses, one for each of the upgrades so to speak, one for carrying, one for speed and one for stamina(mainly useful in PVP), if so would it be better getting 3 cheaper horses or 3 expensive ones?

Sorry for the long post!

Thanks a bunch :smiley:

    After you get a horse you can upgrade one of the three abilities, once a day, by feeding it. (this costs 250 gold). So fully upgraded you can have all three abilities at 100. The only thing an expensive horse gives you is a head-start in one of those abilities.
    A cheap horse takes longer to fully upgrade (you get +1 point in the ability when you feed it), but is overall cheaper and the end result is ultimately the same.

    So personally I'd take the cheap horse.
    Hope this helped :)

    Horse can level up just to 50, that means you have to choose which stats

    Umm... something that hasn't been clear to me, do the horses have a max level?

    I assumed it was 50 like the player so you can't get everything to 100 but the tutorials in the game don't mention anything about the stats of mounts.

    Edit: Thanks Mutharex, thought so.
