What if we had a mammoth mount!

I’m sure it is unlikely but what if we had a mount that was a mammoth, I understand it may be too big but they can lower it a bit to be as tall as the camel and a little bulkier then the bear. That would be so awesome to ride a mammoth, I need it

✭✭While it could be cool, the bear alone can block a lot (and the storm atranoch bear is already slightly larger then all the other bears), and anything just slightly bulkier than that would be inviting plenty of trouble, more so if it was as tall as a camel.
Although... if they made a storm atranoch version as well... I could shout Come THUNDER TUSKS! There are Flowers that must be picked! and stamper off on a massive electrical charged rock with tusks ... yeah I'd buy it.Edited by StormeReigns on April 12, 2020 6:58AM6 -

✭✭I've been asking for a mammoth mount since at least 2015. I'd totally buy one."Knee-jerk reactionist."

✭The very second a mammoth mount would pop up in the Crown Store I would magically know it, leave everything I might be doing, turn on my PS4, start up ESO, dash to the Crown Store and buy it. I would even buy it, if I weren't actively playing and not certain about ever returning at that moment, just for the slim chance that I'd change my mind.
Honestly, a mammoth is on the very top of my mount wish list. I would love it, if ZOS decided to give us one!

The size is what makes it different. Flappy birds and normal mounts are bad enough but you can usually find an angle to get around them. Having one mount so big that it can completely cover the entire writ area so you can't even see anything will be abusedPS4 EU1 -

Well, yeah, but only if the potential mount would actually be mammoth-sized, which I highly doubt. It's a lot more likely that they'd make a version the approximate size of the other mounts (I mean, there are pocket mammoths, so why not have mount-sized mammoths as well?), which is why I said there would probably not really be a difference.Edited by CassandraGemini on April 12, 2020 2:10PMThis poor little Bosmer stealth passive had passionate friends and a big loving family!0 -

✭✭✭I would like to see mammoth mounts. Maybe they could keep the size under control by saying they are "pygmy" mammoth mounts or something.
Even better, as a potential new kind of mount we don't yet have, it could be the next series of event mounts. As much as I love the indriks (and I really do, especially when they get matching pets), I think it's time for a change. There are some cool things they could do with mammoths.2 -

Guyle✭✭✭✭✭NO! You only get reskins of the same 9 mounts! If it's not a Horse, camel, wolf, senche, guar, bear, stag, dwemer spider, or a nix ox - YOU CAN'T HAVE IT!!! Geeze guys, I thought you would have realized this by now, you are being so unrealistic and demanding. Be more understanding of the poor dev team.1

ScardyFox✭✭✭✭✭Oh please, you're at a wayshrine for a handful of seconds if you're traveling. It would be great if they added a mammoth mount to break the unending, relentlessly mediocre, collage of reskined horses, bears and whatever.2 -

BackStabeth✭✭✭✭✭There are already too many flappy things, large things, pets etc that make trying to get into a chest or talk to an NPC a hassle. Why in the world would you want a fatter, taller mount?
Nope, no way, not unless they made the little mammoth pet a mount so that people looked like they were riding pit bikes, I'm okay with that. Or just give them a tricycle if they want to look ..... You know....0 -

✭✭Oh please, you're at a wayshrine for a handful of seconds if you're traveling.
Assuming you can 'e' the wayshrine.
If it's covered in mammoths you could be stuck there a lot longer.
Thought though - with the criminal system having been broadened to include things like some necromancy and vampire abilities, just stretch it a little more to include super large mounts.
Realistically you wouldn't want them tramping through towns. They'd be a safety hazard and also more likely to cause damage to property and roads.Edited by Nerouyn on April 13, 2020 10:08AM0 -

Realistically then if that was to be added, all mounts should provide a trample/knock down effect and do 5% max health damage when running through mobs (as well as players in Cyrodiil/IC) for 1.5 seconds.Oh please, you're at a wayshrine for a handful of seconds if you're traveling.

Just adding things onto the justice system for blanket reasons is foolish, and should be treated as such.
Be easier to just have Wayshrines dismount players once they get within a certain range of the center (say; 5-7 meters), but that as well will open a can of worms in of itself.1
