So I was looking at a discussion (The Crafting Thread; posted in these forums) about crafting and one of the issues was bag space. In the discussion someone brought up using your mount for bag space. It is known that you can increase their bag space if you go that route (instead of increasing speed or stamina). The question is will you be able to own multiple horses and be able to call on them at any time? If so, I'd wager most people would opt into having one horse as their travel mount (putting points into speed and stamina) and possibly many more for carrying their burdens (all points into bag space for mainly carrying crafting supplies).

"Hopefully ZOS will steal creatively copy the brilliant and widely lauded system of crafting material storage that was used in Guild Wars 2."

Quote by Incendio stolen from said thread/discussion. My input on this is maybe they already have implemented such a storage through your 'beasts of burden'. That is, of course, if you are able to own multiple mounts for said purpose.

Anyone able to confirm or refute this information?

I did not even attempt to get a second horse. I don't know

Anyone in the Beta who also noticed that dismounting is sooooo slow?

From what i read.

You can only have 1 active mount at any given time, all inactive mount will be put into the stable. You can swap active mount at the stable.

You can 'summon/call' the active mount anytime you want i think.

I wonder if this would solve bag space issues that everyone keeps bringing up. You would kill two bird with one stone in making more bag space and having another gold sink. Everyone loves a good gold sink, right?

You will be able to have atleast 3 horses. That is stated I think it is in faq or the QnA they give .
