How to Get Mounts in Where Winds Meet: Early Horse and More

Have you ever found yourself trekking across the vast plains of Where Winds Meet, wishing you could travel faster? Well, you're in luck, because the game hands you a horse pretty early on. But did you know there are many more mounts, each with unique skills? From now on, enjoy riding in style.

Right after the tutorial ends, your first quest, "Chapter 1: There Are No Piers in Heaven," begins. This quest sends you and Ruby to the General's Sanctuary. As you approach, you'll meet Roundy, the rude fellow who just stole a horse. After he yells at you for a moment, you'll get a bonus objective that lets you chase him down.

Catch up to Roundy and interact to pull him off the horse and claim it as your own. If a notification reading "Mount Acquired" appears at the top of the screen, you've succeeded. And just like that, you've got your first mount!

If one horse isn't enough, you can add more horses to your stable. To see what's available, head to the Mounts tab in the Appearance menu. There are two categories: Ingenious and Exploration Rewards. You can steal or capture mounts in the Exploration Rewards section, but Ingenious mounts must be purchased or obtained through gacha-style draws.

For Exploration Reward mounts, select one and choose "How to Obtain" > "Capture Horse" or "Steal Horse," and you'll see a map showing the nearest location where you can find that mount using that method. This is a handy way to track down your next ride.

Each mount has different skills suited to different tasks. Ingenious mounts boast powerful abilities, such as finding treasure or teleporting you directly to your destination. Exploration Reward mounts have simpler but still practical skills. Here's a summary of the mount skills we've discovered so far.

So get out there and start building your stable. With a trusty horse by your side, the world of Where Winds Meet becomes much more manageable. Did this guide help you get your first horse? Let us know in the comments below!
