Triceratops mount

[glenn3e]

So i just managed to get my Triceratops to level 7 and it became HUGE and mountable by my aasimar. Question is can I use a Reach weapon like Glaives or do I use a shorter range one to make sure both my mount and main can attack together. I haven't picked a weapon focus yet.

anyone know?

Dunno for the Triceratops, but based on mounted combat on horse, the game seems to treat the horse's space as your character's space, so a regular weapon will attack fine.

I do wonder how the triceratops deals with some of the game's really small doors.

Poorly actually.

My triceratops sometimes charges and attack but main mounted on top doesn't attack. I wonder if the weapon is out of reach due to the huge bulk of the triceratops. Need to find a good glaive to test this out.

its a glitch, i heard ppl on horse have no problem hitting with 1h weapons, but i can assure you that 90% of the time my cavalier on her mastodon wouldnt hit with 1h weapon.. until i switched to my glaive who has reach... i also tried other 2h weapons who didnt have reach and it worked too.

So reach weapons work? Was this in Real time or turn based?

I read that having a Reach weapon would cause your Mount to not attack so I'm really torn here on what weapon I'm supposed to be using...

I made a merc with 1 level in I think it's called divine hunter to get a triceratops, then the rest in paly while choosing to continue with the triceratops at paly 5. He uses a scimitar. He can hit things fine when riding the dino. However, when attacking the the attack animation is the triceratop's gore move. So I don't know which of them is actually attacking.

My concern is once the Triceratops reaches level 7 and grows huge. Have to test more I suppose
