Will Mounts merge their stats into one in 1.6?

Snowstrider · February 2015

Will the mounts merge their stats into one? Or do they only merge if they are fully leveled? a friend of mine told me that on pts only the stats of his fully leveled where there. I hope it just was a bug if not i have wasted 17 days of feeding my inventory horse

If you or your friend haven't already done so, you should report this as a bug. I'm not so sure that all that many people who even have horses "in training" test playing on the PTS and pay attention to exactly what happens.

Only the highest stat-level that one of your horses has will be converted to your new level in 1.6.

If you have 3 horses each with a different stat at level 50 then you will have level 50 in all of your rider stats.

But if your horses stats are like:
1. speed: 30 stamina: 20
2. stamina: 30 capacity: 20
3. capacity: 30 speed: 20
then you will only have rider stats at 30.

To expand a bit more. Let's assume one of your horses has 50 speed, one has 40 stamina, and the last one which you're feeding right now has 25 strength.

Now the patch hits and your character starts with the following skills: 50 speed, 40 stamina, 25 strength.

If you have two mounts with the same attribute raised, you'll keep the higher of the two.

Once the patch is live you can just continue to train your riding skill (rather than feeding), which in the end allows you to max all three stats at level 60.

All my horses for 8 different characters show the stats I have gained on that horse 1.5.

For example: My bag-horse (50) character still has just a bag-horse with the other stats being at 1.
My speed-horse character still has a speed horse with the other stats being low, so not getting the bag space merged as stated above

etc., etc., etc

So will horses be account bound in 1.6?

So for example I only have one horse on one characters, but 5 char total.

In 1.6 all of my characters will have my main chars horse stats? Or is it character bound and they will each have their own individual horse stats?

It's the latter. But any acquired mounts will be shared by all characters. I don't know if a character has to purchase a mount first though, before getting access to all account mounts. Anyone know this?
