PTS Update 46 - Feedback Thread for Timber Mammoth Mount

This is the official feedback thread for the new Timber Mammoth Mount. The Timber Mammoth is a brand-new mount and the largest we’ve put in the game thus far. We’d appreciate any and all feedback on this new species of mount, but we’d encourage you to be on the lookout for situations where movement is restricted or camera detracts from the gameplay when compared to other mount types. Thanks!

    The mammoth feels a bit lacking and unfinished. Maybe some extra stuff on the saddles and turn it into a 2 seater?

    The mount-up animation, specifically where it helps you up with its trunk, is absolutely adorable. Kudos to whoever made that choice.

    Main feedback - We were all hoping for a 4-12 person riding mount rather than solo.

    I’m hyped af

    Edit: @ZOS_Kevin is this going to be a crown store exclusive mount or something that we can potentially earn in the game via a cool questline or accessible achievement? If crown store exclusive, pricing wise what are y’all thinking?

    I'm so happy for a Mammoth mount! But I'm also hoping in the future, they can make a Mammoth mount that can carry 4+ players. Please make it happen ZOS!

    The textures are too low-res, making it look less alive. This is especially bad around the eyes. Yes, you will be zoomed out most of the time, but if you zoom out in its current state, the separation of the eyeballs and the skin around it is so bad the face almost looks more like a tree trunk. Other than that, I love the mount and I think with this new tall seated position, we might possibly get a real gryphon mount akin to what Siroria is riding in Cloudrest, maybe?

    This mammoth is a great approach to what people like me wish for, but I really expected it to carry up to four players or at least two referring to its immense size. I hope you can bring that argument up before it will be released @ZOS_Kevin.

    Others already brought it up in this threat and it should also be considered in future terms as to mounts like haj-mota, gryphons, wamasus etc which already exist in certain zones.

    This is what I expected it to look like ->

    The jump sound is very repetitive! This is an issue with some other mounts, but it could use some variety or not fire as often.

    When you land from a high enough fall, there's a great impact sound, but it's sometimes slightly delayed. Still funny.

    The legs seem to move too fast for a mount that was sized down so much, but that's to be expected. It's a good mount--don't think I would pay Crowns for it.

    Always dreamt of a Mammuth mount; my only piece of advice would be to make it a regular crown store item and NOT a crown gem exclusive... It's really good and I can see it sell well for crowns, count me first in line.
    (Maybe a tiny bit more "orange" the tone of the fur?)

    I always wanted a Mammoth mount for my Nord Warrior. I even asked for Mammoth mount back when Orsinium DLC came out and Greymoor chapter. I also asked for Welwa mount as it would be great for My Orc Warrior (A horse?? Give me a beast to ride!!). Took time but it eventually came a Welwa mount with the Blackwood chapter and more versions came later on. And now Mammoth mounts are coming :)

    Can we get a visual setting to hide other players mounts and pets?

    I still get fancy mounts for myself for my own enjoyment but other seeing it simply doesnt matter to me.

    Chilling out in towns is becoming not fun. Literally debating avoiding populated towns for crafting because of how bad it is. This mount will make it worse.

    What I like most about this mount conceptually is that it’s absolutely ridiculous and I think I low-key love it.

    Fun to ride, has an awesome mount up animation. Minimal barding means this looks pretty nice when placed in houses as well - do wish we could remove barding from mounts when placed in houses.

    Super happy the first one is a single rider version, thank you!

    This kind of reminds me of the war mammoth in Age of Conan years ago, it was fun because you can make the mammoth fight while mounted. Knocking around enemies with those big tusks was fun.

    This would be cool if you could carry your 3 team mates or more.

    Giant mounts don't do it for me.

    I would dearly, DEARLY love a tiny mount. Heck, if the hobbyhorse mounts were not merely cosmetic, I'd never ride anything else. I don't want to be ostentatious or annoying. I want to recede into the background. I want to be the smol stealth archer.

    This mount? I might buy it, but that's only because it might have mechanical use, as pointed out by others, for reaching high things. Otherwise, I wouldn't want to ride it in public.
