There are several ways to get a horse in Where Winds Meet. In this guide, we will explore the available methods to acquire a mount — from stealing to taming wild stallions.
The wild expanses of Jianghu (Jianghu) in Where Winds Meet are filled with bandits, dangerous locations, and many wild creatures that will attack you at the first opportunity. To confidently navigate this world of combat adventures, you need a reliable steed. Getting your own horse significantly simplifies travel in the early stages.
In Where Winds Meet, there are a large number of mounts that allow you to significantly speed up movement around the world. The choice of mounts is not limited to just horses. This makes exploring the game space even more interesting, as some riding creatures look funny or cute. However, the main mounts in the game remain horses — and what is especially convenient, you don’t have to buy them. You can simply take a mount from another character if you are not afraid of breaking the law.
Please also note that while riding, the capabilities of your weapons and combat skills will be limited. After you get a steed in Where Winds Meet, you will be able to summon it by pressing the 6 key on the keyboard. If you want to change the horse to another mount, then open the Appearance menu.
The first mount in the game is not associated with any task or reward that is in Where Winds Meet. It opens thanks to hidden mechanics, which the game does not report until you accidentally stumble upon it.
Buy a Mount in the Store
The most obvious and easiest way to get a horse in Where Winds Meet is to buy it in the in-game store. To buy a horse, you will need one of the in-game currencies or real money. Below is a detailed instruction:
- In the main menu, press the ESC key;
- Select the «Store» item;
- Go to the Appearance section;
- Open the tab with the horse icon.
Here you can purchase horses or other animals used as mounts for pearls — the premium in-game currency. In addition, rare and unique horses are presented here. However, obtaining some mounts depends on luck, as the system works on the gacha principle. These mounts offer expanded customization options compared to ordinary horses.
Tame a Wild Horse in the Open World
Another way to get a mount in Where Winds Meet is to saddle a wild horse. While exploring the world, you will often encounter such freely roaming steeds. Having found a wild horse, you can try to tame it.
You need to approach any horse from behind and mount it. However, the problem is that horses are very shy and run away at the slightest approach. Then you have to go through a rather difficult mini-game, where you need to press the direction keys in time in accordance with the prompts appearing on the screen.
Steal a Horse from an NPC
If taming a horse is difficult for you, you can simply take it from an NPC who is riding. At the very beginning, you will encounter two such characters. This will lead to the quest «A Horse Neighs in the Forest», in which you can steal one of their horses. But remember: as soon as you do this, both NPCs will immediately attack you.
You can also steal a horse from any NPC you meet in the game who is riding, but be prepared for the consequences — after the theft, they will become hostile and most likely attack immediately.
How to Sell a Horse
If you have too many horses in Where Winds Meet, you can sell some of them to Wen Pu, who is located in Qinghe, Sundara Land. His exact location is shown on the map. If the map of this area has not yet been opened for you, first talk to the traveler — he will be marked on your map and will allow you to unlock the region. When you have an excess of steeds, you will be able to exchange them for additional coins.
This is more a way to earn money in the later stages of the game than in the early ones. At the beginning of Where Winds Meet, it is not easy to find horses, but after several level increases in single-player mode, there will be enough mounts. In addition, you can earn some money by selling stolen horses captured from bandits.
