Description

These are said to bring luck! Apart from improving horse speed and safety, of course.

Horse shoes are U-shaped metal items which can be equipped on a horse's hooves to help it move somewhat faster.

Notes

  • 4 horse shoes are needed per horse.
  • The horse must be tamed before attaching horse shoes and other equipment. After equipping it can be untamed.
  • Horse shoes are damaged with every step the horse takes while mounted. Horse shoes are not damaged on horses being led.
  • The speed enhancement depends on the quality of the equipped horseshoes. 50 QL is required for any bonus. A bonus of .24 km/hr is gained for each shoe at QL50, another .24 km/hr at QL70, and a final .24 km/hr at QL90.
  • Enchantment with WoA will increase the efficiency of the horse shoes. The same bonus is added as for the QL: a bonus of .24 km/hr at 50 WoA, another bonus of .24 km/hr at 70 WoA, and a bonus of .24 km/hr at 90 WoA.
  • Speed bonuses are only at each threshhold. For example, a QL70 horse shoe will give the same bonus as the same shoe improved to QL89, and a horse shoe with 50 WoA will give the same bonus as the same shoe with 69 WoA.
