Giant mounts

[martyk]

I just wanted to find out what kind of pets out there ae giant mounts. I meen, not like the giant carrion spat where you stunt the growth, but ones that grow ot full size after being mounted. The only one I know of now is the bol pack runner.

Grizzled Dewies is one of 'em I think. Wasteland Cu pas are also big too - almost twice the size of the normal ones...

My Swamp Humbaba mount is pretty tall. He's terrible to ride over rough terrain so I tend to pull him out only when I want a nice view from high on his back.

Swamp Humbabas used to be the largest mounts. They were big enough to be sitting above the roof of a small house, even if it was on an embankment.

A very recent change (unknown if intentional) is that BE pets now seem to have their size based upon CL. Some truely massive mounts might be possible if putting a saddle on does not stunt their growth.

Ya, but I'm pretty sure that even though the SBC is stronger than the BPR, it's still smaller.

I wasn't aware that Swamp Humbabas would take a saddle. Could you be thinking of Savage Humbabas instead? It was my understanding that they were the tallest mount. Mine is certainly my tallest mount.

At one time or another, in order to measure their speeds, I've had every mount. At least that's what I thought. I've recently noticed that more critters were listed that would take a saddle than I had previously thought. Maybe things changed more than I had thought, with the CU, because I thought I had done a thorough job in making the Mount and Vehicle Speed list in the CH FAQ on the main forum.

I received another surprise, a few weeks ago, when a cannibal dewback I had tamed grew larger than my mountain dewback, even thought the mountain dewback was the stronger animal.

Please pardon the rambling. I'm a little flustered at, apparently, making several glaring oversights.

Swamp Humbabas can be mounted. Prior to the CU they had no babies, so they were not usable until then.

Ahhhh, that would do it. It seems I have some updating to do. Thank you.

I did recently raise a rogue bageraset to adulthood, hoping that it would now take a saddle, but it appears that it can't. Before the CU, I hadn't noticed baby rogue bagerasets.

To get the biggest mount just get a BE to make a normally lower lvl mountable pet at a really high lvl. My lvl 60 dewback is massive.
