Pearl Abyss released update 1.06.00 for Crimson Desert, a 2.5 GB patch on PC that introduces a wild mount system. You can now tame bears, boars, wolves, deer, camels, lions, tigers, iguanas, and raptors, each with unique saddles. To earn their trust, you must first defeat them and then feed them. The patch also adds features for extracting materials from equipment upgrades and nighttime adjustments. 🐻
Taming mechanics and resource extraction 🛠️
The taming process requires defeating the beast and then offering it food, a system reminiscent of survival titles. Once tamed, the mount is registered as a means of transportation. Additionally, a function is included to extract materials invested in equipment upgrades, preventing total losses when changing builds. Also added were the option to display weapon sheaths, nighttime tone correction, and new melee skills for Unka. The Valor Talisman allows canine pets to attack enemies. Improvements to the Vision gear and a toy extraction machine at the Smiling Marionette circus complete the patch.
Taming a bear: the ultimate Uber of the desert 🚗
Finally, if your horse gets tired, you can hop on a bear. Of course, you'll first have to beat its face in and then offer it a snack. A rather peculiar friendship dynamic, but effective. And if you regret maxing out your sword, no problem: now you can extract the materials from it like a vending machine. The only thing missing is the tamed lion giving you a ride to work.
