So this is like auto follow?
If you have two accounts, like I do, you can throw a mule on the back and pull him around to mobs and he can ride for xp? Sounds exploitable to me.

if it works like wow - you have control over your camera and when to get on or get off, but the motion is controlled by the player driving the taxi mount. that said, IMO - its much easier to ferry people around wayshrines the way we already can. by using teleport to player feature.

I AM however looking forward to taxi mount as its going to make it MUCH easier to dual box my accounts. because I'm not using any software at all and control characters individually (I have a laptop next to my main PC) and there is no auto follow feature - moving characters individually through the world can get a bit tedious. with taxi mount? at least out doors is going to get a bit nicer.

I could be wrong about this but I'm fairly certain you're not allowed to be on two accounts at the same time, even if you're playing them both physically and aren't using and macros or some other program to move them around for you.

you are wrong. its been confirmed multiple times that its ok, as long as you are not using anything extra to control aforementioned accounts. all the input is manual and all that. here's the first thread I found when searching the forums, has green posts and everything. https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/504118/multiple-accounts-at-the-same-time/p1

bots that use software do get banned eventually, but botting is very different from what i'm doing. because as i said. all the imput is manual and I only control one character at a time. and unlike the guy in a thread, i'm even using two separate computers. the only difference between this and just logging out of my main account to log into my alt account to play is well.. the process of fewer loading screens thanks to having 2 computers I can run at the same time.

Anyone knows if the second person on the mount can get up while in combat? Because if so this could potentially be huge in PvP. Have someone fight and if things turn bad, your escape taxi is right around the corner waiting.

It's not great in PVP. I was riding with a rogue in PVP WOW, and he carried me right into a large enemy mob, hopped off the mount, and vanished. I got slaughtered. Lol.
