This article is about the items summoning the three horse mounts. For other uses, see Saddle.

The Dusty Rawhide Saddle, Royal Gilded Saddle, and Black Studded Saddle are mount-summoning items that summon the rideable Painted Horse Mount, Majestic Horse Mount, and Dark Horse Mount, respectively. All three horse mounts are functionally identical. Once they reach a high speed, they will deal damage to enemies they come into contact with. Saddles are sold by the Zoologist for 25 GC each, after completing at least 30% (162 entries) of the Bestiary.

Notes

• The horses' top running speed is 46 mph, reachable in 3.2 seconds.
• When surpassing 38 mph, they will start dealing damage to enemies and critters they run into, similarly to the Unicorn and Goat Mounts. They will deal 30 base summon damage and inflict a knockback of 7 (Strong).
• There is no jump fatigue while riding a horse mount.
• When using a saddle, the respective horse mount will appear in a puff of gray smoke.

Tips

• A horse mount is best used on a large platform without obstacles, extending across the map. This facilitates maintaining maximum speed without having to worry about slowing down.
