Tier 7 horse at level 20 with only 6 skills unlocked.

[Cardboard10]

i know it is RNG based but when the heck am i gonna get more skills for my horse. on top of the regular RNG i have an additional 10% because of the costume on my horse. any help?

Dump the horse on the market, very little chance that it will learn a lot more skills in the last 10 levels.

Besides from the training costume you just need to keep on training till you have artisan/master skill level. With high skill level you have a +20% or more increase that the horse will learn a new skill with each level on top of the costume buff. Life skilling just sucks at low level, you have to grind through it.

I am doing horse training a lot as well and in the beginning I only trained low tier horses that are quick to level up, which also increased the training skill quickly. Only after reaching professional level I started training T5 to T7 horses.

And get a better training costume, 10% buff is not a lot.

if you are trying for money id just do tier 5's, they are cheap and decent returns lol

Just a heads up, horse training is most awfull lifeskill to learn.. You will spend hundreds of hours on afk to level up training.
Best way to grind horse training is to connect 2 to 4 horses to a wagon (depends wich type of wagon You can access) and just ride around forever untill You are satisfied with your training level.
Remember that You get %tage of training every time horse levels up. Not from distance ridden or amount of horse skills mastered.

Though distance and speed matters when You want to level horses faster.

Thats why you should start with low tier horses and train them up to level 10 and then dump them on the market and buy a new batch of low tier horses. Rinse and repeat till you have artisan/master level and then you can start to make some decent amount of silver and train the horses up to a high level.

ill start to do that. Myself I am skilled 10 right now so I actualy Will start to level up ♥♥♥♥ tier horses like you advice.

Seems like sound advice B00tsy,

The only other thing I would add is that if you have one or more other lifeskills going that occupy your AFK time and are already enjoyable and/or profitable, you can weigh up how much you want to be training the horses yourself, and whether you want to just buy one?

The main downside imo being that while you can see what skills the horses on the market have, you cannot see their names so expect to fork out loyalties/cash on a name change coupon

Thank you all for the knowledge. im on skilled 5 so i thought it would be a fine spot to start but i guess i was wrong. i'l be training up other horses now. Dig_Bick will be missed

I can attest to that. I am on my 6th gen of breeding Tier 7 horses (starting at T1's about 3 years back) trying to get a T8. And still only have a Pro 7 (I think) skill.

And due to the surge in people experiencing random reloads due to desync issues it will (most likely have to) all be done while watching it, instead of AFK.

It indeed will take hundreds of hours to get master skill level, but with AFK training it's not really an effort. I am at pro6 skill right now and I am only playing the game for 3+ months and training for just a few hours a day. Taking 3 years to get to that level lke you is really slow.

Well I have been playing the game off and on for the past 3 years. It's not like it was the 'full 3 years'. In fact just today at reset, I got the 200 Day loyalty reward. And it's not only horse training that I do, or did, now that I can't because of the aforementioned reloading issues, while AFK.
But with the newly added life-skilling gear it might be faster.

I have encountered some desync/reload issues as well, but it does not happen that often at my end. Anyway, if you can leave the game running while being AFK then it should not take that long to get to decent skill level, certainly not 3 years :)

And besides from lifeskill costume there are also consumable buffs plus pets and scrolls. I drink Sute Tea like crazy in the game (8% buff) and always Spirit Water of Essence to constantly increase my health (though that has nothing to do with lifeskilling).

Well for example; The other night I tried to AFK train the last 5 levels of my current gen's parent horse with a 10H 200% horse exp scroll I got in my mailbox when I came back. I noticed that about every 10 to 20 minutes I would switch my T.V. back to the game and see that it had reloaded. I got 1 & 1/2 levels in that whole 10H and gave up. I gave it a shot with the T7 female horse at level 30 and the T7 male at level 25, because the horse calculator said it reached max chance. And I got the current T7 female I'm on now.

But I guess that's one good thing that I got a female. I can use the other T7 males breeding attempt then trade those in*.

*And yes I'd rather not over think the whole 'inbreeding' thing, thanks. It is just a game after all.

Don't bother, game was nerfed to the barebones. Everything that can earn money for a new player requires a LOT of IRL money. Bye !
