Mount Abilities

Description
This mod adds abilities to all available base game mounts that had none before. They are not too strong but can give a slight advantage in combat. Also adds 1 new exotic mount, the "White Warg" available via a new form trait.

I wanted to make mounts more unique (especially the Tier 1 mounts) while not making them feel overpowered, so most of the abilities don't cost any action points but can only be used once per combat.

Mod Features
  • All base game mounts now have an active ability.
  • 1 new Mount "White Warg".
  • 1 new form trait "White Warg Mounts".

A good mod! It remains to add a description of the skills when choosing a race!
Your mod makes the choice of mounts more interesting

Would be really cool if it was updated to include all the new mounts from DLC but good job already!

@primeambitions: eventually yes, but I don't feel like modding these days. Does the mod no longer work or is it just missing some skills for the new mounts?
primeambitions 5 Mar @ 5:05am 
plans on an update at all?

Are you planning on adding abilities to the new mounts in the upcoming DLC?

can you please fix the fact that you don't get fire resistance from riding the horse made of lava and then fix the fact that the item and trait don't give the same stuff for the nightmare the logical inconsistency is quite irritating. also frost resit to white wolf because theirs no reason for it not to be consistent with the item or the unit .
