The process of domesticating equines in the virtual world involves repeated attempts to mount the animal until it ceases to eject the player. Successful domestication is indicated by the appearance of heart particles. This outcome transforms the equine into a controllable mount.
The ability to control equines provides a significant advantage in transportation and exploration. Domesticated equines can traverse terrains more efficiently than players on foot, enabling faster travel across vast distances and facilitating the transportation of goods. Historically, equines have been a valuable asset in the game, enhancing players’ mobility and logistical capabilities.
