    What is the fastest mount I can get with Station Cash or by in game atm for kiting mobs?

    Horse Speeds

    Fast is the fastest. Some mounts like Topiary Lions have 2 versions: default Run2 and Fast which is based on a character flag triggered by having a mount that is always Fast. If the name of the spell doesn't give away which mount it is, you can Click on the spell name.

    Bard drum is fastest mount.

    If bards could ride their drums, they would never leave the privacy of housing.

    Bard with Drum will always be fastest, and I think the Seru / Emp mounts from SOL are still the fastest?

    I was under the impression that all current marketplace mounts were at the fastest level, along with seru, black drogmor drum (casino), and pally/sk AA. I thought they were at all run speed cap and then bards get an AA that extends our runspeed cap by a small amount and that was the only real advantage we had as far as top speed. Selo's is much better due to mobility.

    I think the market place is one step below (or more), because i have the shadow wurm mount from the marketplace and it is not as fast as a seru mount.

    Some of the legends of norrath loot cards are seru mount speed.

    I think some of the marketplace mounts scale to speed of fastest mount you own.

    How does one get that to work ? I have a emerald sokokar (fast 1) in my house and I only get the wurms speed, do you have to keep both in inventory ?
  11. Trajet D'Or Augur

    Pretty sure it's use the Fast mount to flag the character. If that no longer works blame me and the other people who abused that on FV to make Topiary Lions fast by trade-click-trade.

    The following is a rundown of mount speeds... There are 5.

    Fast
    Run2
    Run1
    Slow2
    Slow1

    Examples of Fast (ie Fastest)
    SK or Pali holy or unholy steed
    Black Ornate Chain Bridle (aka Seru mount)
    Most LON (not all Lon Mounts).
    Whirligig Flyer Control Device - DSH Anniversary Task
    Class V Collapsible Roboboar - Claim plus essence of speed drop
    Bridle of the flying Imperial Sokoka - Field of Scale Raid
    Queen's Prime Minion Saddle - Cliknar Queen Raid
    Prime Cliknar Mount Saddle - Reward for many many UF tasks

    The above mounts are ALL the same speed (yes include Pali SK as one of them)

    Examples of Run2
    Black chain Bridle -Aka 100 K Baz horse (4 colors to choose)
    Class IV Collapsible Roboboar
    Most Station Cash mounts for marketplace
    A Few LON mounts - eg). Firescale Wrulon was Run2. All other Wrulon are Fast

    Example of Run1
    Class III Collapsible Roboboar

    I won't bother running down anymore slow ones because most are not interested in obtaining the slowest horse in the game.

    Have fun riding across the lands of EQ

    Thanks Google

  15. Cakvala Augur

    Yeah I found that information too, just ran some tests... Loaded up Emerald Sokokar Mount, cast the spell ran to zone line. Loaded my Shadow Wurm mount, cast the spell and ran and the Wurm Mount is not as fast as my Sokokar mount.

    Blah.

    Years ago I had a Seru mount on my box, and it seemed a tiny bit slower than my SK AA mount. Don't know if it REALLY is or not, but the SK mount was slightly faster when I would change who was leading with Auto Follow.
