Mounts

For an alphabetic list of all the mounts see, Category:Mount (Equipment Type) instead.

Mounts are one of the methods of transportation in the game. Think of a mount as a beneficial spell cast on you for a specified amount of a time that increases your running speed and has the bonus of looking nifty at the same time by showing you riding on a creature's back.

Note: Along with the release of Leapers and Gliders, all ground mounts now travel at 130% or 135%. Leapers, Gliders, and Flyers remain slower. Leapers and Gliders travel at 60% ground speed and 200% air speed, while Flyers travel at 75% ground speed and 150% air speed.

General Information
Mounts are typically summoned to a caster by activating an item, such as a whistle. Of all the mounts in game, only the tinkered ones and certain quest rewards have a set number of charges and must be procured anew once their charges are used up. All others are yours to keep once they are purchased, but may need to be resummoned after their standard duration time expires. Most mounts last for 24 hours or until you dismiss it, whichever comes first. After that time you must resummon your mount.

Mounts will temporarily disappear any time you ride another form of transportation that flies or runs, such as a gryphon, sokokar, horse, or cloud, but will automatically reappear once you land. They also temporarily disappear any time you climb a wall. In some zones, your mount will temporarily disappear from view but still provide the benefit of any buffs until you zone out again (for example, many crafting zones).

Some mounts may slow down or become unable to fly, or both, if the player is attacked while mounted, even if the player does not engage the hostile attacker. Ground mounts like horses do not seem to be slowed by being attacked.

Players can have 'appearance mounts' which override the looks of the mount in use. These must be of the same type. A submenu in the character menu allows mount configuration. There is an option to not show mounts at all, even though you will still get the effect of the mount (Character, Options).

 * Usage notes as of 06/10/2012, (it is "likely" that these notes are valid for all flying mounts)
 * To fly press the spacebar, otherwise you need approximately a two and a half to three second glide through the air before your wings will catch wind and allow you to take flight.
 * You are not allowed to fly within your home city (further testing is needed, however it might be that all such cities bar you from flight even if it is not your home city).
 * While equipped and NOT in combat, you glide down. You don't fall.
 * Warning: While equipped and IN combat, the wings will not allow you to start flight. You will fall.
 * If you stop flying in mid air you will hover.
 * While flying, if you dive bomb down you don't crash into the ground, you just land.
 * You are not allowed to take flight from the water while swimming. You must first exit the water, then take flight.
 * Alert: In areas such as floating islands where you die in the air if you fall off the edge, the game will kill you if you fly down low enough to reach the "kill zone".
 * Alert: You are not allowed to start or continue flight inside certain buildings, caves, or other enclosed areas; even if there is plenty of room for flight. To avoid unexpectedly dropping in on the mobs below you, it is best not to fly into unknown buildings or other enclosed areas.
 * While in flight the game prevents you from attacking (spells or otherwise) and your pet will also be unavailable. So be aware of flying mobs.
 * You will be unable to interact with game objects such as quest books (that you must read in order to progress a quest), NPC's, and mail boxes until you land. However, some quests (such as Intelligence Monitoring and Shut Them Down!) allow you to advance while in flight by clicking trigger points for the quest. Also, after you start reading a quest book you can take flight again and finish reading the pages while hovering up at a safe distance.
 * If you fly low enough to ground based mobs that are hostile they will attack you and you will be unable to attack back. However, you could fly up out of their attack range.
 * In certain conditions mobs will follow you out into the air for a short distance and be able to attack you. Keep flying away from the surface they were on and they will reach a barrier and be unable to follow you further.
 * For characters with pets: if a mob attacks you while in flight, then when you land your pet will run off to attack that mob. Even if it is on the other side of the zone. Unless you call it back or you told it to not protect you.
 * Necromancers: If you are controlling an undead creature via Control Undead (or it's upgrades) and the timer runs out while in flight, that creature will simply disappear. It will be gone when you land.
 * Losing your network connection while flying may cause you to fall out of the sky the next time you log in. If this happens to you then the moment your character appears after logging in simply press the spacebar to start flying again.
