I leveled mount skill for all 8 of my toons back when the skill was tied to the specific mount, rather than a global mount skill for your character. Hence, I was able to level all 3 skills daily, using 3 imperial horses, whose progression then got merged together when the game changed over to B2P.

Speed to 60 so I don't slow others down when I am grouped. Then balance stam & capacity up together. Some char's might factor in the visual upgrades earned at 20 to mix that up a bit.

I level a different one each day, but that is the order I do them. Capacity first day, speed second day stamina third day ... repeat until they are maxxed.

speed till 30 then stamina till 20 then speed till 60 then capacity to 60 then stamina till 60

Capacity is first for me because no space is a real problem and a huge hindrance to do other activities, I've wasted way too much time sorting out full inventories, space is too much important.

Speed as second even if in pvp I keep losing objectives with alts because at the time they arrive riding the potato horse, all is well gone. Though I truly prefer to have more space, it's not so incredibly important that more AP, while it's incredibly important I don't go insane with items.

Same for Stamina, it's annoying, also in pve, falling from the horses within a second from trash mobs every time, but whatever.


Anyways, at the time I play with new alts they usually have the capacity maxed out, so I'm starting with speed or I have some points already (not many but the finish line is a little closer).

Speed to 30, stamina to 20, speed to 50, stamina to 60, capacity to 30, speed to 60, capacity to 60

And I've thought about it way too much.

Balence... and even numbers.

Because what use is it getting to a new place faster if you have to make the trip twice as often because your bags are full? Capacity first, always.

Speed to 30, then capacity to 30.
Then 1 of each to cap. Stamina is last.

I do speed first because a slow mount is frustrating. Then I flip-flop back and forth between stamina and capacity.......5 days stam and 5 days capacity and back to 5 days stam and 5 days capacity until done.

10 Stamina since that goes along way in Cyro, then max speed to save the most amount of time. More Stamina after if it's a PvP char, more bagspace if PvE.

I went for max speed, then got the other two up to twenty for the upgrades, then finished of capacity, followed by stam. Speed was the only thing I was truly concerned with.
