A mount is similar to a pet and can be seen as an advanced pet system. Players can start using mounts from level 60 onwards. You can only use either a mount or a pet at a time, you can not use them both (although you can equip both). There are advantages and disadvantages when compared to pets:
| Advantages Compared To Pets | Disadvantages Compared To Pets |
|---|---|
| Can boost multiple characteristics sometimes beyond what an equivalent pet can give (e.g Vitality, Wisdom and Strength). | Huge experience donation from the user to the mount in order to level it up to receive it's full benefits. See Mount level. |
| Can carry items, much like a portable chest, up to a certain number of pods depending on color and level (you can still use this feature if you have a pet equipped). | The mount inventory is completely separate from the user's inventory so access to the bank is hard: it has to be traded first to the user's inventory then to the bank. Unequipping a mount requires you to empty its inventory. |
| Does not have a regular feeding time, only needs to be fed when energy is depleted. | When mounts energy reaches zero it becomes unridable until energy is raised (by feeding or using a Manger). |
| Losing battles does not affect the mount. | Pandawas can't pick up and throw. |
| Wide range of mounts available giving you more options to pick-and-mix the characteristics you want. | Time consuming if you are breeding to obtain a specific mount. |
| When a pet dies you must complete a dungeon to revive it, whereas mounts do not die. | Can only equip 1 mount at a time and changing mounts requires a paddock. |
| Mounts make your character travel faster across maps - letting you reach places quicker compared to those without mounts. |
Since the update "Riders of the Dragoturkey", you can mount a Dragoturkey (currently the only species available, though Ankama has stated there is a chance on future species).

Mount is a beast that can be used for transportation. Most mounts are created by Beast Masters who have the Create Mount expertise. Some mounts can be gained as quest rewards, collection rewards or expansion rewards.
Every mount moves at different speeds when walking (holding the Shift key down), running, and galloping. All speeds are listed in meters per second, and time in seconds. For reference, an unencumbered player runs at five meters per second (5 m/s).

Average speed takes into account a mount's running speed, its gallop speed and duration, and its gallop rest time. It calculates the total distance covered by a mount's gallop, the total distance run during the gallop rest time, and then calculates the average speed travelled during that time. The total calculation is such:
![]()
This is an approximation of your mount's average speed assuming you gallop as soon as your mount is rested.
