;How do I get better at Riding?
By riding of course! And I have a technique for getting better fast: you should ride in lots of different places, and always ride near dangerous monster.
; I should ride TOWARD dangerous monsters?
Just ride near enemies -- don't get so close that you get injured! Just get close enough for the horse to experience anxiety. Then you can practice overcoming that anxiety.
; So I should just ride around monsters? Like, in a loop?
No, no! You can't get better if you just stay in the same area. You have to ride near different monsters in many different places! Explore all types of terrain, and dodge monsters everywhere you go.
That's how you get better at riding: keep exploring! Keep fleeing!
; That sounds insane, but you're the riding expert.}}

The basic instructions for gaining XP in Riding are to ride near monsters and enemies, and you will gain Riding experience, which will increase both your health and armor while riding. Initially, this encourages a practice of quartering a zone map so that you try to cover as much of it as possible and keep riding near monsters and enemies. However, at level 30 in riding, you can equip player-crafted reins which include an XP checkmark to indicate whether you have gained riding XP in a particular area. Once you have done so, you should move on to a place where the checkmark disappears and then find another monster or enemy to ride near to gain XP again (and light up that checkmark).
