Description

A leather saddle complete with a girth and stirrups.

Equipped on the torso of a mount, a saddle will provide a slight speed bonus to movement and also prevent the animal from roaming.
Can be worn by:
To equip:
- Tame or brand the animal you want to put the saddle on to
- Right click the animal and choose look>equipment.
- Drag and drop the saddle to the torso
Saddle bags or saddle sacks can be put in the saddle.
Saddles only increase the speed of mounted horses. A horse hitched to a vehicle will gain no benefit from wearing a saddle.
The speed enhancement depends on quality, with a higher speed bonus at higher quality.
Enchantment with Wind of Ages or Blessings of the Dark will also add a speed enhancement, with a higher speed bonus at higher enchantment power.
Speed bonuses increase smoothly with increasing quality and enchantment power.
Girth quality affects the chance of creating. In case of failure, the girth can be destroyed and the saddle seat is damaged.
On creation failure, both components are damaged.
Riding an equipped horse will cause decay to the saddle.
