Mounts inDragon Age: Inquisitioncan help players traverse the world much faster than simply walking. In addition, they can also be a fun way to change how they travel thanks to the various kinds of mounts they can choose to be traveling companions.
The mounts inInquisitionare all the same in terms of stats and speed, so it’s all about cosmetics when it comes to picking the mount players want by their side. With this in mind, these are some of the best-looking mounts that players can unlock during their time withDragon Age: Inquisition. Remember, each mount travels at the same speed, so these choices are all purely cosmetic.
9Asaarash
Armored and Dangerous
The armored horses in the game don’t have additional strength or stamina, but they certainly look pretty awesome. The Asaarash is a Qunari horse that is known for its resilience, often used bythe Qunari military. Players can’t access this mount from the base game alone though, as it can only be obtained by those with theSpoils of the QunariDLC pack.
Players that have the DLC need only access theSpecial Requisitions chest found in the Undercroft in Skyhold. After interacting with the chest, the Asaarash will be available to use as a mount straight away.
8Greater Frostback Elk
Frost Giant
Harts are another kind of mount available inDragon Age: Inquisition.Harts embody the beauty of nature, making for a great mount for those who want to do some role-playingwith a Dalish elf Inquisitor. One of the harts that players can use is the Greater Frostback Elk, which has a shaggy coat and is covered in Avvar warpaint. The striking black and white warpaint of this hart makes it one of the more memorable mounts.
This is another DLC mount, as players can only unlock it when they have theSpoils of the AvaarDLC. Much like with the Asaarash, access theSpecial Requisitions chest in the Undercroftto unlock the Greater Frostback Elk.
7Imperial Warblood
A Pale Beauty
The Imperial Warblood might be a regular horse, but it makes it onto this list as it is a particularly pretty one. The white coat of the Imperial Warblood makes it stand out from the other horse mounts. It’s the kind of horse that players can envision the Inquisitor riding while leading their army into battle.
6Inquisition Barded Charger
Ready For Anything
This is another armored horse that players can ride gallantly into battle or use to explore the various areas of Ferelden and Orlais inDragon Age: Inquisition. This breed of horse is described as a “valiant steed,” and it wears its own set of Inquisition armor to emphasize that bold nature.
This mount is only available as part of the promotionalFlames of the Inquisition Armored MountDLC. This DLC came with certain versions of the game: the Deluxe, Inquisitor, and Game of the Year editions. For those who have this DLC,recruitMaster Dennet to the Inquisitionwhen visiting the Hinterlands and complete the In the Saddle side mission. This will unlock the “Flames of the Inquisition Charger” operation at the War Table.
5Hunter Shade Dracolisk
A Unique Companion
Dracolisks are a unique mount type inDragon Age: Inquisition.These creatures look a bit like a cross between a horse and a dragon, and they have an interesting historyinDragon Agelore. Some dracolisks have unique abilities, such as being able to breathe ice or fire like dragons. Unfortunately, the dracolisks inInquisitiondon’t have any special abilities.
Still, they do make for fun and interesting mounts, such as the Hunter Shade Dracolisk. Once you have turned in enough dragonling creature research items or killed a high dragon, you will unlock the Hunter Shade Dracolisk operation at the War Table.
4Red Hart
Majestic Beast
The Red Hart isanother DLC mountthat comes as part of the Deluxe, Game of the Year, or Inquisitor editions of the game. It is a rare and gorgeous creature that is often thought to bring good luck when spotted in the wild. Tamed Red Harts are even rarer, making this mount a particularly eye-catching one.
3Bog Unicorn
For players looking for something a little darker and more angsty with their mounts, the Bog Unicorn is a great choice. The Bog Unicorn is described as a creature that was once owned by an evil marauder, though it is now not quite dead and not quite alive. It gets its name from the sword that is embedded in its skull, as the blade points upwards and looks like a large unicorn horn.
The Bog Unicorn is another mount that comes with DLC from the Game of the Year, Inquistor’s, and Deluxe versions. Much like with some of the other mounts,recruit Master Dennet and complete the In the Saddle quest,and you’ll then get a War Table operation that allows you to unlock the Bog Unicorn.
2Light Torn Steed
A Light in the Darkness
The Light Torn Steed was a promotional one that came as part of the NewEgg Logitech Promotional DLC forDragon Age: Inquisition, so unfortunately, it is no longer available. It’s a shame that this horse/exotic mount can’t be obtained anymore, as it has a striking design that makes it one of the best mounts.
The Light Torn Steed is made up of pure, bright blue light, but the horse’s skeleton can be seen lit up inside its body. The mount looks like an X-ray come to life, so even though it isn’t available anymore, it is definitelyone of the best in the game.
1Tiddles Majoris
A Distinguished Gentleman
The best mounts inDragon Age: Inquisitionhave to be the giant nuggalopes. They have all the cuteness of nugs but are big enough for players to ride. What’s not to love? Tiddles Majoris earns the top spot thanks to its brilliant name and the fun way in which it is obtained. But any of the giant nuggalope mounts (such as the Greater Nuggalope, the Avvar War Nug, and the Knuckled Thunderer) make for amazing mounts as well.
If players want to get Tiddles Majoris for themselves, they will first need to buy theMystery Box from the seller Deraboam in Val Royeaux.This will cost 10,000 gold. Once the box has been purchased, a golden nug statue will show up in Deraboam’s shop. Interact with it and a War Table operation called “The Big One?” will unlock. Once completed, Tiddles Majoris will be ready for players to ride.
