Tiger Mount Request

tigerborn62 · January 2020

Please. Please. Please. All I ask is that it look like a gorgeous Bengal tiger, is silent when it runs and has a cool roar. Thank you!!!

Already missed it. There was a unique crown gem exclusive senche-raht with tiger stripes a few months ago

I want this. It's hard to express how much I want this.

This was a loyalty reward before the game was live on consoles. It would be really nice if console players had the opportunity to get it.

Console players had the option to start the game on PC, file some documentation, and then have their account copied to console. Some had their 300 days of paid subscription time on the original edition of the game and qualified for the mount prior to their account copy.

By the time console launched, the game edition had turned over to Tamriel Unlimited. The loyal program had discontinued earlier in the year as it was intended for only the original subscription-locked edition of the game. It, among other collectibles, was a thank you for being an early adopter of the game when you paid $15 a month just for access to the game.

Yes, I am aware of this. I was not about to buy a PC gaming setup just to play the game prior to console launch. I would have gladly paid the subscription during that phase of the game if I had been able to play without buying a new gaming system. (I've been an ESO subscriber and played nearly daily since the game launched on console.) It's no big deal but I am sorry to have missed out one this mount.

TequilaFire · January 2020

Yes I had to sub uninterrupted for one year from launch on PC to get my striped senche tiger.
When I transferred to PS4 it went with me.

Qwazzy · January 2020

Almost 5 years of asking support for this mount. Maybe one day.

ProfessorKittyhawk · January 2020

The day they make this mount available to people who weren't in on the ground floor when the game came out, there will be riots. Saw how angry people got after they released the white gryphon pet for crowns or whatever after being a gift for gifting people stuff last year. But lo, they went and put it in this seasons crates as well. 😂

I can maybe understand having something similar, always wanted a white version of the senche tiger. Have a pet but no mount version. That would be acceptable. But the original senche tiger is a testament to how long a player has been in the game. That and the dwemer sphere and ice wraith pets, and mask of cheerful slaughter.

I used to see that tiger mount about very often.... I literally cannot remember when I last saw it within the last year

I see that mount quite often but if you want a mount that's like never seen I'd have to go with the original Kagouti mount released back in 2016. I like never see anyone else ride it but me.

^ Pretty much this. ^

The Senche Tiger Mount was during a critical time for ZOS ... when players were on a subscription plan.

I doubt they will reverse their promise to keep that mount exclusive ... which would alienate those loyal players.

Oh man, you dont want to go down that rabbit hole. I suggested that as well, since ive been subbed for a long while on Xbox and all the PC players here absolutely chewed me out. Like i stepped on their puppy.

idk · January 2020

I have a nice stripped Bengal tiger mount. Zos gave it to us for free after about a year of subscribing from the launch date. Basically it was the last subscriber rewards Zos gave us before going B2P. It is a nice mount.,

Zos has reskinned the mount a few times since and offered it in the crown store but they seem adamant at keeping that original striped senche mount special to those who faithfully subscribed during the first year of the game. I have a black one as well. So OP can find variations from the store and crates.

CMDR_Un1k0rn · January 2020

Interesting... I thought my quitting of Elite Dangerous got me away from this type of topic.

This mount is the same as the Cobra Mk IV in that game.

karthrag_inak · January 2020

Perfect Idea - make it available to non-stop eso+ subs over a certain age. Coming up on 3 years, which is -way- longer and more money than any sub was the first year.

OP wanting a legit Tiger and telling them they can have any other Senche BUT the single one they want.

Nemesis7884 · January 2020

honestly i wish i could get the tiger mount but have given up on it... i am around since launch but missed it since i didnt play the game after launch (didnt like it back then).

This tiger mount and the shadow rider senche mounts are the mounts id really like to have....well

MurderMostFoul · January 2020

I'm rocking the tiger on Xbox, booya!

yeah that could be an idea...if you are an eso+ sub for at least 3 years in total (i wouldnt do continuous to be honest - for example i jst missed continuation for a day because the auto-renewal failed due to outdated credit card info)

the mistake is comparing a personal decision with a business decision.

when the money overwhelms the personal commitment, money wins every time. They are not in business to make friends.

if there is enough vocal desire for this, it may happen.

IMHO

One of the alts use it, now that I know its story I probably use it more.
Most has probably forgotten the origin thinking it was another 1500 crown mount you bought.

Think I used it on my main because she is an tiger striped Khajiit, then I bought another mount for gold and switched to show I got it.

To be fair I don't think the OP was asking for the 300 day subscription mount to be made available again. The post reads like they didn't know there was a tiger mount in the game and were asking for one to be created, considering they specified how they'd like it to look and sound.

@tigerborn62 - because of the subscription mount it's unlikely you'll get one which looks exactly like a bengal tiger, but there have been a few other tiger patterned mounts which might work. I think the closest one so far is the Goutfang Seche-raht:

That was a crown gem exclusive, costing 500 gems (meaning you had to open a lot of crown crates to afford it) and might well come back at some point, either with the same acquisition method or a different one. Or they might release another tiger patterned mount in future which might work for you.

Iccotak · January 2020

What do you plan to do with that Tiger?

The Ka Po' Tun said they would invade to get back their brothers and sisters

Nemesis7884 · January 2020

they could get "kinda" around the promise and make the same tiger mount but as a white / snow tiger...so its not the same

caperb · January 2020

I understand people like the mount and also want it, but if they ever make it available again I would be very, very unhappy. Together with the imagkin monkey it is the only item that shows you were here since the beginning.

Oh man, you dont want to go down that rabbit hole. I suggested that as well, since ive been subbed for a long while on Xbox and all the PC players here absolutely chewed me out. Like i stepped on their puppy.

If you were here then, you'll remember that the mount, among other things, were one of ZOS' ways of atoning for going back on their word regarding subs and was announced as an exclusive, one time only reward. Giving away the same mount now would show ZOS in a very bad light indeed.

Minyassa · January 2020

There are quite a few other tiger morphs, though this is the classic. It was rather stupid of ZOS to make the most common and recognizable form of an iconic cat that is the favorite of so many people into an exclusive item, but now they're committed to it and the best they can do is offer other colors of tigers. If they would get around to that it would be great. Marmalade's lovely. White's nice. Maltese would be nice.

You seriously want to justify 'they could get "kinda" around the promise and ...' ?
Seriously?

I paid my dues.
I got my tiger.

Whats next?
People can say 'But I didn't even know the game existed back then, It's unfair and I want one'?
Why don't they ask to be a beta-tester, too?

No.

JKorr · January 2020

I might be okay with the tiger being available again, BUT only under the same conditions as it was originally. Sub for 300 consecutive days, not available for outright purchase or in the crown crates.
