Black Rope Bridle  

 

After a series of foot races with horses the following results were discovered:
the rope bridle is faster than foot with no buffs, but not faster than "Jboots", etc.
the silk bridles are faster than "Jboots", run 3, SoW and SoE.
The Chain bridles are significantly faster than the silk.
The SK and Pally AA horses are faster yet than the chain bridles!
We have yet to race with the ornate bridle dropped in SS, but when we get one, we will update the run speed for you! Hope this helps aid in your decision on which bridle to purchase. Happy horse shopping!

how do you sell a bridle???

WEll heres the easiest way to explain it to all newbs nad or think people. Horse are mainly a symbol of wealth ushaley its a caster thing becaus they cna med and move(pluse it looks cool to be a wiz atop a horse nukeing) So casters ushaley buy the cheeper bridles becaus they dont use them for travel much just to move while med. You will raley se a chain bridel mabey ornate chain form a raid but people will spend 100k on something more usful than a horse(such as new spells weps armor ect) As far as the Sk/Pally AA it is worth the wait im still wating on my lvl 37 sk so i have a while to go. So all you people whining y are theis so expensive and will petition a GM or Soe to lower prices, just dont bother there just status symbol.

P.S Drogroms look cool but horses are the classic look and Sks ROCK

This lists most items/abilities/spells/songs that offer changes in run speed. This information is accurate to the best of my knowledge and searches. I see the question posed often and thought I would make a comprehensive list. I didn't include items that have spell effects you can cast (ie shammie boots that cast sow). I bear no responsibility for any changes or nerfs after this post.

Anyone know how to dismount your horse without having to make it disappear? In other words can you get off the horse but keep it there and not have to recast it? Would love to know the command for this =)

are the rope bridle's worth the 10k for a warrior?


(ignore the sig)

I was interested in a Horse and i am a paladin and need speed, any ideas on a good fast horse for cheap? thanks

Can you trade in a old brile for a drum to summon the new mounts?
Also, Do you get back your paying price for a bridle when you turn it back im?

If you hand the bridle in to Wendal Amondson he will give you the money back for an unwanted horse.

You just hand him the bridle and he will give you a Bag of Platinum. You can then sell the Bag of Platinum to any store. Haven't tried to see if you can get better prices at different vendors, but that may be a good way to get more for the horse.
