The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind Guide › Adventuring Across Tamriel › Mounts

Mounts and Stables

Mounts provide a speedier means of transportation with a longer sprint time and increased storage space for the player. Anytime you are outdoors and not in combat, pressing the Toggle Mount button causes your character to hop onto your currently selected mount. Note that a mount cannot be ridden until it has been set as your active mount at the Collections tab. While you’re riding, the mount can gallop and jump.

Horses are most common of the mounts, but there are various animals available for this purpose. All mounts are equivalent, with a limited number of Speed, Stamina, and Carrying Capacity upgrades available at any Stablemaster. Exclusive mounts are purchasable from the Crown Store.

Available Mounts

Visit the Stablemaster or the Crown Store to purchase a mount.

* The Crown Store rotates its stock of mounts, providing more options than are listed here.

Stables

Stables are available in most major cities and offer a few horses for sale, as well as training. Talk to the Stablemaster to see the list of mounts available and to train your riding skills.

Training

Once every 20 hours, the player can visit a Stablemaster and train in one of the following three riding skills for 250 gold. Riding Lessons are also available from the Crown Store for a set amount of Crowns. Each lesson allows the player to increase a stat by one, but still limited to the maximum of 60. There is no daily limit to these upgrades and you must own a mount to make the purchase.

Visit a Stablemaster every 20 hours for the ability to train your mount.

Riding Skill

Stat Description
Speed Increases movement speed while mounted, up to a maximum of 60%.
Stamina Increases your stamina while mounted, up to a maximum of 60, allowing your mount to sprint longer and take more hits before you become dismounted.
Carrying Capacity Increases your carrying capacity, up to a maximum of 60.
