Skill in riding terrestrial mounts. Higher skill allows you to keep your mount calm even in terrifying situations. Earn XP by riding in many different and dangerous locations.
=== Training {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} ===
* [[Mythander]] in [[Eltibule]] teaches Riding to humanoids for a fee or in exchange for doing a quest, and also sells a mount. He also unlocks levels 51-60 and teaches some high-level riding abilities (Gallop and Gentle Horse). The horse-based riding skill is available to all humanoids, as well as Giant Bats, and Rabbits currently. Other [[Beast Form]]s have alternative mount-forms.
* [[SylviaSilvia]] in [[Sun Vale]] teaches mount-form to [[Deer]] players who are at least level 25, as well as a unique speed-up that reduces mount anxiety and increases jump ability.
* [[Raul]] in [[Animal Town]] teaches mount-form to [[Cow]] players who are at least level 25, as well as a speed-up that consumes grass.
* [[Norbert]] in [[Animal Town]] teaches mount-form to [[Pig]] players who are at least level 25, as well as a speed-up that increases both land and water speed temporarily.
* [[Legs]] in [[Animal Town]] teaches mount-form to [[Spider]] players who are at least level 25(?), as well as a Move Those Legs speed boost.
* [[Mittens]] in [[Kur]] teaches mount-form to [[Spirit Fox]] players who are at least level 25and have '''{{favor|Friends}}''' favor.
* [[Sanja]] in [[Kur]] teaches the wolf mount-form to Lycan players who are at least level 30 in [[Lycanthropy]]. Hunting Speed (1 through 3) are now Wolf mount abilities (they used to be sidebar abilities), and are activated in the usual way at the [[Altar of Norala]] each month at Full Moon.

=== Mount Window ===
The '''Mount Window''' provides statistics for an active horse or for a beast-form players mount form, a button to mount or dismount, and slots to equip horse tack. (Beast forms at present use standard horse tack to improve their Riding stats.) It should be noted that mount equipment is tied to equipment loadouts, therefore you will need to equip your mount (or mount form) with your desired tack and save it for each loadout.
