Mounts

Mount concept art by Jeff Delierre.

Mounts are obtained through an early quest that is available to players in starting areas.

• Mounts can also be found in the wild and tamed.

Summoning mounts

Animal husbandry mounts are summoned via an item that is obtainable from a stable (husbandry stall). De-summoning the mount returns the item back to the player's inventory.

Land mounts (Ground mounts) are tier 1 mounts that are obtained through an early quest that is available to players in starting areas.

Flying mounts

Dragons (sometimes referred to as Wyrms or Wyrmlings) are able to be used as mounts, others will serve as NPCs: Some will be bosses or monsters that players can fight.

• Dragon mounts are classed as royal mounts (tier 3) that are capable of true flight when utilized by Burgemeesters of metropolis nodes or Kings and Queens of Guild castles.
  • Royal mounts are 3 or 4 times larger than gliding mounts (tier 2 mounts).
  • Certain tier 2 mount skins can be upgraded to tier 3 skins to accommodate the size difference.

• Dragon eggs can also drop from legendary world bosses. These will be temporary mounts that exist for a limited duration.

We reserved it to very very few people per server, which is also going to make it a lot more meaningful when those flying dragons come into play for certain events. – Steven Sharif

Gliding mounts

This is the gliding distance that you can develop a little bit with these gliding mounts. So there's some some good amount of distance traveled. – Steven Sharif

Gliding mounts are tier 2 winged mounts that jump/glide/hover close to the ground. Unlike royal (tier 3) mounts, gliding mounts are not capable of true flight by default.

• The higher the level of the mount, the further it can glide.
• Gliding mounts gain the ability to fly for mayors of Metropolis (fase 6) nodes or Kings and Queens of guild castles.
  • Certain tier 2 mount skins can be upgraded to tier 3 skins if they also apply to royal mounts.
• Gliding will require some level of player skill in relation to gauging the speed and distance needed to successfully glide to the desired location.

Aquatic mounts

Aquatic mounts are Tier A mounts that may be obtained from taming underwater creatures.

• Aquatic mounts are faster in water and slower on land.
• Aquatic mounts will be able to fully traverse naval areas and water areas.

An intrepid explorer could choose to traverse on his tide snapper alone. – Sarah Flanagan

• Aquatic mounts will have utility skills that are useful in fishing, such as fish finding.

Mounts will have skills that relate to fishing in some way shape or form, least the water mounts. Whether that be getting out to a particular area, whether it be like some type of fish finding or chumming the area. There could even be benefits while fishing in the water while mounted, like, you're on the back of your turtle out there just sitting in the water casting your rod, or your line. – Steven Sharif

• Animal husbandry will affect aquatic mounts.

Crowdfunding mounts

Kickstarter/Summer crowdfunding mount beloningen worden op deze manieren uitgegeven en gebruikt door backers die hier recht op hebben:

1. Basismounts worden verkregen na een beginner quest die beschikbaar is voor alle spelers in de startgebieden.
2. In de account management pagina wijzen spelers cosmetic skins toe aan een character in hun account.
3. Deze skins kunnen vervolgens worden aangebracht om het uiterlijk van de in het spel verkregen mount te wijzigen.
   • Dit verwijderd de skin niet. Het kan alsnog in de toekomst toegepast worden op een andere passende mount.
   • Spelers kunnen de skin van het ene character verwijderen en aan een andere character toewijzen.
   • Skins kunnen alleen actief zijn op een character en een mount.

De Dawnbreaker mount skin wordt in eenzelfde manier gebruikt, maar is alleen toewijsbaar aan een bepaalde klasse mount. Aquatische mount skins, zoals de Tidesnapper, worden ook op eenzelfde manier gebruikt, maar zijn alleen toewijsbaar aan de aquatische mountklasse.

Mount list

• Pridestalker
• Dawnbreaker
• Moonstrider mule
• Obsidian stallion
• Runic steed
• Spectral mare
• Tidesnapper
• Midnight mare
• Radiant stallion
• Cursed charger
• Daystrider mule

Racial mounts

Characters are able to obtain racial mounts via a quest in that race's starting area.

Each starting area will have a different quest line that will yield a different type of starting mount. But by default you don't just choose human and here you get a horse, so to speak. Because you can be a human in our game and choose to start in a different racial area- at a different Divine Gateway- and as such then you could follow the quest line that gives you the Orc mount. – Steven Sharif

Group mounts

Multi-passenger group mounts were unlocked during the Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign.

Temporary mounts

Temporary mounts that drop from bosses age and die.

Naming mounts

Mounts are able to be named by players.

Mounted combat

Certain mounts will have combat abilities.

• Players can't use their class skills while mounted.
• Mounts can be killed by players, but can be resurrected.
