I just hate the feeling of constantly rushing at full speed, especially in town. I know a lot of people are happy about this change, but I'll never understand why.
Edit: I also just removed all points from Steed's Blessing for the same reason. I just don't enjoy running around at warp speed.

Nothing can beat the speed of airplane Griffon and motorcycle Beetle mounts thoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2_ZGBF_MU4
I hope we'll get something like this in ESO.
I still remember times when Major Gallop was +40% mounted speed, and we had Ward of Cyrodiil set give +15% mounted speed as three piece bonus... And we had +2% mounted speed in green CP tree :'( My mount was so fast that my computer couldn't keep up with it back then.
...At least nowadays we got our Major Gallop back to +40% mounted speed (thanks to +10% mounted speed from new green CP tree). It's one of stars I have permanenetly slotted on all my altsOne of very few good things in this update.

I understand why they are happy about the change. What I don't understand is why they want to move that fast. I found it nerve wracking to constantly be moving at full speed. If I want to move a bit faster I'll use sprint, that I can control.

According to all the threads that popped up when ZOS moved Rapids to rank 5, playing without that speed makes it unbearably impossible to level alts, or quest, or anything; as it's completely required for PvE.
Or something like that. I'd never used it before, personally. /shrug

Players used to have control over it. Now they don't. I wonder if that is creating negative results for them like it had for me.

If the speed is an issue, don’t take the passive and don’t put anything into the mount speed green CP star. That’s how players can have control over it.
At the very least, could you make Major Gallop function ONLY WHILE HOLDING THE SPRINT BUTTON (i.e. spending horse stamina). If you're not holding that button, let horse speed be normal? Please?
Galloping is, after all, a horse's equivalent of sprinting - a thing that can't be kept up all the time.

https://youtu.be/cJAuPkR6fc8Don’t take continuous? Just to control mount speed would be a negative impact on PvP players. No one slotted rapids before, maybe one person in the group to buff the entire group.SilverBride wrote: »

Yes, it's called "Gifted Rider".Oreyn_Bearclaw wrote: »Are you sure that stacks? I havent tested it yet. I am a little fuzzy on what the actual mounted speed cap is. (non mounted is definitely 200%)
It definitely stacks
I feel it, but I had to use addon RavSpeed to show numbers.
Major Gallop is always on.

The mounted speed cap looks like 300%, but at the moment we can only reach it for brief moments after pressing Sprint button. I hope there will be more sources of mounted speed increase, to reach at least 300% speed.
I was under the impression that you did get a small burst when you sprinted, but wasnt sure if that was just my perception. So taking that burst out of the equation, where do you top out if you just hold down sprint with gallop and the CP slotted? 240%?
