Not to be confused with mounted combat skill. As it stands now there
seems to be little or no benefit of the mount skill. i suggest that there
be a new ability granted to a mounted combatant if their mount skill
is sufficent. i suggest they be able to make an attempt to re-mount
their mount while in combat. success would be dependent on agility
and skill level.
Just a thought, because when i get dismounted i get PWNED.
And as it stands, the mount skill is near worthless.
New use for mount skill.

Mount permits one, at the higher skill levels, to stay mounted whilst riding indoors.
As for shieldblock versus mounted combat, mounted combat is significantly superior to shieldblock. I won't go into details, but there are some definite advantages of mounted combat.
I'll discuss the idea of permitting mounting in combat with Shevarash and let you know our decision.

Actually it's one of the reason I, as a ranger, never bothered practicing mounted combat. Every time I tried I'd fumble a sword, then have to dismount in order to get it back...
