Mounts

Some animals are mountable, meaning they can be ridden by the player.

Depending on the animal, movement speed and jump height is either reduced or increased.

An animal must be raised or tamed first in order to mount it. See "Raising Animals".

How To Use a Mount

1. Remove the adult animal from its habitat.
2. Place the animal in the pet slot.
3. Two options will appear when your pet is near you:
   • "Ride": Press "E" to mount and ride the animal
   • "Stay": Press "F" to tell it to stop following you. Your pet will stay exactly where you left it until you press "F" again ("Let's Go" option) or take it out of the pet slot.
4. To dismount while riding, press "F". 

Standard Mounts

The table below outlines existing mounts, as well as their requirements and feed requirements.

With the exception of the piglet, baby forms of animals cannot be mounted.

Legendary Mounts

Legendary animals require the same habitats as their non-legendary counterparts (Bunny Habitat, Chicken Coop, Dung Beetle Habitat, or Stable), with the exception of the Ghost Cat, which needs a Crystal Paw.

Taming legendary animals is instant, but they still need to be led to a habitat to complete the taming process.

Spawning Requirements

Once requirements for a legendary mount are met, there will be a small chance every morning for that mount to spawn somewhere in the world - typically on the Outer Islands.
