Indrik's of ESO (and the Fantabulous Overdose of Too Much Indrik mount's)

starlizard70ub17_ESO · June 2020

Yes. too many

Thankfully I never liked how indriks looked so I didn't play the quest/mini game to collect all the their skins. I have one evolved indrik, an early one but I forget which. I do the quests for tickets to pick up the style pages or other things the Event Ticket vendor has. We really need more stuff and less indrik.

Tsar_Gekkou · June 2020

Nope. We need something else, something different.

I want more dwarven spiders instead.

I would also like to see more than indrik evolutions, style pages( which i also dont care about) and the occasional pet. What about some other items like:

1. more pets
2. new furnishings or blueprints
3. new houses
4. maybe some old crown crate mounts like the apex or even a radiant apex.
5. other costume items such as markings adornments etc.
6. new clothes dyes?
7. rare materials like Aethriel Dust, Perfect Roe, Tempering Alloy etc.
8. etc

There is so much you can do with the event merchant to make people want tickets, but reskin of the same mount for years on end is not it.

1. yes. 2 yes. 3. hell yes. but also *confused* 4. ya. 5. ya. 6. ya. 7. that would be pay to win. 8. ya?

4. To clear up confusion. There would be event ticket exclusive houses. You would use your event tickets to buy a house "deed" or part of a deed( though i would increase total amount of tickets you can have to like 100). A small house would be 15-20 tickets total, medium would be 20-35 tickets, large would be 35-60 tickets and notable would be 60-99 tickets. One house would be available per quarter similar to indriks with all houses that season available for the last event of the season.

7. Its not. Pay to win literally means i pay real money to gain an advantage that is not available by any other means. You can earn both event tickets and every one of those items without ever spending any real money. Also the pay to win item has to give you an advantage over other players. Those do not give you an advantage over other players. And finally you can literally trade crowns for gold legally in this game now. So there is nothing about any of that is pay to win. In fact even if they sold armor in the crown store, it would not be pay to win as long as there is a method to legally trade crowns for gold.

Would like a red-themed Indrik to fit my char. No such luck this time around, Mossheart is colored after watermelon

. Perhaps one more, after this one? A red one, pretty please?

It's a cheap reskin for a "new" mount.

Money. It's cheaper for them to reskin an existing model vs. developing a new model and animations.

Tigerseye · June 2020

In a way I like them, as I only got two of them and then left the rest.

I was then free to get max cakes, in the anniversary event.

Which was still not enough cakes, as you can never have enough cakes, but it was still almost enough cakes to keep most of my houses in cakes until next spring.

...cakes.

Weird word, cake.

Enemy-of-Coldharbour · June 2020

Yes. too many

Instead of new mounts, I'd love to be able to use event tickets for special housing items.

If people didn't want them for some reason they wouldn't make so many... unless their research and marketing departments have fallen asleep at the wheel.
They are obviously trying to add different things to the event store, but maybe Indriks are too safe to give up until they hit on something that appeals.
Style pages seems to be the trend?

Reskinned mounts themed to each event would be better. Maybe creepy crawlies or broomsticks for Witches'.
Or maybe they'll just crown store that like they did with the fake stick mounts for Jesters <.<

They’ll run out of colours soon...

Sadly I don't think so. Didn't they basically start doing two-colour combos with the Icebreath? That's more permutations right there. And they can always go to a tri-colour scheme after that.

All mounts are too similar in this game. It's time to bring out a new base model.

Same for characters, they all share the same bodies and animations.

Would be great to have the lizards and cats to be a bit more different than humans with a cat/lizard heads & tails.
Must say that I found rather disappointing when I started playing, like you watch an old Sci Fi series where all aliens are humans with strange heads.

barney2525 · June 2020

First off, someone needs to learn how to spell " More ".

Here's the deal with Indriks - They Are Free. And each one is Unique. Free mounts give you variety and choice. And since the berries never get recycled, every New Indrik is a limited edition.

Bring em on

IMHO

They should have done them for one year only then do a different type of mount the next year and so on.

Looks like you will get a chance at obtaining a red themed Indrik, I see a Crimson variant listed here: https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Mounts/Other

Also Corrupted, and Mossheart versions listed.

goddess2015 · July 2020

Indriks are still a refreshing new mount style. One that I can earn and not pay crowns or crown gems to buy. I can ride it proudly knowing I did whatever event was needed to earn it and the baby one that goes with it. which is a feature that I love. They are very pretty IMHO. . There are only 7and one more in future unless I have overlooked one. Nascent, Dawnwood, Luminous, Onyx, Pure Snow, Spectral, Icebreath,( & Mossheart still to arrive) . As for them being a reskin, well, every horse, every cat, every wolf, every guar...they are all reskins. And there are far more of each of those at this point than there are Indriks. I have about 40 horses in my collection....and plenty of wolves and cats. So, I'm not tired of Indriks. I would love actually love to see a few more colors. I look forward to earning something nice that I can earn. That said, I do hope they offer different type of mounts, pets or even housing items or houses as earnable in future...that would be nice!

Muizer · July 2020

All mounts are essentially the same. Let's just stick with horses and dispense with all the cosmetic fluff until ZoS find a way of making mounts interesting gameplay choices.

Grianasteri · July 2020

Yes. too many

Initially it was a great idea. A new event mini game of farming for berries to gain the next Indirik mount.

But they didn't think it through.

Not everyone likes stags (Indirik). In fact Id warrant most don't like riding stags, given you don't actually see that many around, despite the fact that a new stag is available to farm for each cycle... so to me that's a massive waste.

If, however, each cycle it had been a NEW type of mount, some kind of magical conjured animal each time, cycling each event through horse, guar, camel, bear, wolf, sench etc... this would have drastically increased over all engagement since there would be something for everyone to aim for and look forward to. That's one way to provide variety and satisfaction for more people.

Better yet, though perhaps a little more complex to implement, create the mini game of "berry" farming, to allow a player to actually choose which type of mount they wanted to be able to conjure during each cycle, I like senches… but Im stuck with Indirik every event?

Nah, not interested anymore. How about WE decide which animal type we want through the minigame/farming process. Massively more variety and satisfaction for players who then get to farm for mounts they actually want. The skin for each cycle would remain the same effectively, a new skin, but the animal is what we would get to choose.

The Indrik following Mossheart is a "Crimson Indrik" and it is VERY Red.

It's already in the game files, just not implemented as a Collectible.

MasterSpatula · July 2020

Yeah, I thought (and am pretty sure they said) the Event Ticket thing and the Indrik mounts were just for the fifth anniversary. It feels a lot less special continuing it past the sixth anniversary, but I think it might be too late to retire the concept.

So better to move on to new things to buy and upgrade with tickets.

Michae · July 2020

Yes. too many

The original 4 evolutions were fine, one for each season of the year. Now with Summerset long gone it would be nice to get a different type of prize for our tickets, be it mount or something else entirely. Indriks cater to specific type of characters, mages and elves mostly, so no matter how many colors we get they're not for everyone and there isn't really that much variation between them. With crown mounts we get many crazy variations even in the same type of mount, we get attronachs, dwarven contraptions, ghosts of many flavors, lizards, mushrooms, few types of undead. With indriks we got few easy recolors and a ghost. I really don't want to sound entitled or ungrateful but indriks got really boring. They are easy to get and I got them all since I just like participating in the events but outside of being a completionist and having to spend tickets on something I really don't feel the need for them anymore. Is there going to be another one after the current one? I wonder if there's a point in buying another set of feathers.

Not caring even the slightest about the ones with the ugly FX effects.
