cost is 5k crowns. Is that finger clipping on all passenger races as well?

    I refuse to pay 50 bucks for a digital mount. Not unless the passenger gets the use of the brakes.

    It also removes Argonian tails as well, if the passenger is a Beastfolk (tested with Ember) it happens to them as well. :(
    Main is Blue-Thuxis, a Argonian stamSorc, whose also is a werewolf! 2nd main, Cobalt-Thuxis, a Argonian stamArc, an identical twin sister to Blue-Thuxis, even is a werewolf as well! some alts:
    Nirn-Scale Rajthux (Argonian, Templar), Ros-Ei Nature-Thuxis (Argonian, Warden), Crimson-Thuxis (Argonian, DK), Bone-Thuxis Tharn (Argonian, Necro) Why Bone-Thuxis has Tharn as a last name:
    The siblings were separated at a young age due to a Dres slaver raid, Blue, Cobalt, Ros-Ei & their mother were able to escape, Crimson & Bone weren't that lucky. Crimson was later "rescued" by some Orcs that later ambushed the House Dres Dunmers, unfortunately one Dunmer remained & sadly successfully brought the young Bone-Thuxis to the Dres plantation. Later an Imperial, a Tharn, bought Bone at a auction & later told he was free, the young Argonian sadly had no idea where to go & doesn't know if his family was still alive, so the Tharn adopted him into House Tharn. This family of Argonians finally reunited years later.

    So many people wanted multi-rider mounts but I don’t think I’ve seen one in-game…

    I thought the spider might have been cool, but not at that price and not if it removes tails! :(

    I have the spider and love it. Wish they'd fix the tails issue. I wish it had a better animation when you hold down x. Best 500k I've spent in a while.

    A couple obviously cosmetic problems:
    • The driver character actually doesn't hold the levers (they hover just above them) 9auxde83hry5.png
    • The clipping of the hands for the passanger is... something else
    • The hands are not "attached" to the object they're holding, so the" vibration" effect they're going for looks janky and silly
    • The tail of both driver and passenger is removed if they are beast-race
    Considering the pricing is within what some other MMOs charge for mounts on the "unique" side, I don't really object too much. For example, it's roughly the same in price as Lunar Whale in FFXIV. However, I would also like to point out that the Lunar Whale is an 8-person mount and is their most expensive mount to date. So there's no real comparison to be made. I really do think the crown store prices for mounts (and most items) needs to be re-evaluated. I expect better quality for these given the price. Consider, too, that these were delayed for a long time, specifically the Duo Dynamo Dwarven Spider.

    What did they use the extra time for, because it wasn't quality control? I would guess they were working on the back end to ensure people didn't get banned for using it and being seen as botting.

    In Cyrodiil, while standing next to a player who was using the mount, I complimented the mount; I think it looks nice. The player offered to give me a ride and I accepted. Oh my, being a passenger was different. My character's point of view stayed the same so I needed to 'fake steer' to look ahead and to stop that funny feeling that was growing in my stomach. :D
    Weeeeeee

    Anyway, I didn't notice my fingers.

    In general, I like the spider mounts. I have plenty of crowns from subbing and I might get this one. I have not yet decided.

    I will say that one of the fun things about taking a duo mount in Cyrodiil is that it allows new characters (low level or mount not fully trained) to keep up with the group. We've done that a few times where someone would Uber me around since I was on a baby.

    Which was also effective, because that meant I could spend the ride looking at my map to see if anything flagged while the driver kept their eyes on the road.
    ...or didn't and then drove us both off a cliff, but I don't think that was a problem with the mount itself :D

    My mount's fully trained, but I had the opportunity to ride as a passenger on that deformed horse in Cyrodiil and was surprised at how fun it was. It was nice to be able to sit back, enjoy the (long) ride and not worry about choosing a non-suicidal path through the unfriendly topography.

    Couple in a guild has it, nice if you have leveling alts in Cyrodil.
    Tested this as an passenger, it clips Khajiit tails as passenger to.
    Makes no sense, make a gap between seat and backrest and it would not even clip Argonians.
    Would probably bought this if it did not remove tails mostly for Ember.

    Think of it from a safety perspective: appendages dangling from the seat could get stuck in the spider's engine, with disastrous results. So Argonians and Khajiit just unplug their tails and store them in their packs while riding. I'm sure that's what the devs were thinking.

    To add what I said earlier, from what I read tails also disappear with the horse mount as well. For this happens with both I presume either:
    a. In coding for the multi-rider mounts, for the passenger slot to work the devs probably code it into the tail mesh/model slot.
    b. A coding conflicting issue with the tail mesh slot.
    c. The dev in control of mount coding probably straight up screwed up.

    Edit: Despite of tails get sent to the void (that they should fix), personally I like this spider one, of preference for some of my toons when I have a companion out I prefer them in this than on a individual mount.

    I noticed this some time ago as well. Clearly some Dev dropped the ball and didn't think it through, that a race with a tail the size of your leg wouldn't design a chair they couldn't sit in. I think, "realistically" a stool, bench or a chair with an open lower back to accommodate the tail, would be more likely.

    Can't see a problem, if Argonians can use an Argonian stool, they can also use the chair :).

    They can't use the chair because of the back. There is no place for their tail.
    If the top half were solid where their shoulder blades would rest, but the bottom half were open to allow the tail to pass through, then it would be fine.. As I stated earlier, If you had a tail the size of your leg, sticking out of your lower back, you could not sit "properly" in this Argonian chair. They would have to sit sideways or even backwards in the chair. Your picture even proves the error in design, as the tail is clearly clipping through the seat, and yet there is no tail hole in the stool. The ergonomics just aren't there. Although, to be fair, one could argue that the chair was built BY an Argonian crafter for the tailless races, but not FOR Argonian use.

    This is one of the main complaints about this (and a few other) mounts is that it removes the tail to make it "useable"
