How to get a Akwinduu Thoroughbred
- 1Finish “Like a Bird”
To unlock ranching, you must first complete the quest Like a Bird. Once you have earned your Glider, Delaila will arrive at your Housing Plot and gift you the recipe for the Barn Bell.
- 2Earn “A Horse of a Different Color”
Akwinduu Thoroughbreds may be obtained in-game by discovering several different types of horse traits through breeding, marked by the accomplishment A Horse of a Different Color.
- 3Buy it at the register
Akwinduu Thoroughbreds do not currently have a Riding License to purchase separately like the Phoenixfire Dawnspur. Instead, to obtain a riding license for the Akwinduu Thoroughbred and use one's own ranch animals as a mount, one must purchase either the Highlands Supporter Pack or the Royal Highlands Supporter Pack, available in the Premium Store for real-life money. All ridable mounts in Palia may only be accessible for riding after completing Hassian's side quest, Before the Dawn. This quest is given once The Player reaches the Royal Highlands, and is available to complete at any time, regardless of main story progression.
