WARNING!

If you perform this glitch, save before if you don't want to lose any progress.

There are three methods to perform this glitch.

It seems possible to softlock yourself with this glitch (it is still unknown how it is actually done) or to unstuck yourself (by using two Bombs, one after another quickly, to damage yourself out of this state).

Method 1 - Blood Moon Cutscene

Discovered: Olof Larsson
Verified: Yes

Requirements

  • Any day with a Blood Moon manifesting.
  • Any wild mount.

Instructions

  1. Find a mount and wait for the Blood Moon to appear.
  2. Sneak up on your future mount and right before the cutscene triggers, use the "Action" button to begin to mount it.

Result

If done correctly, after the Blood Moon cutscene, your mount is not there and you will be stuck in the air where the mount was, unable to move (but you will still be able to use weapons, runes, etc...).

Notes

This method still works in the 1.1.0 version of the game.

Method 2 - Disappearing Mount

Discovered: Brybry
Verified: Yes

Requirements

  • Any wild mount that disappears after running away for a little while (a deer for example).

Instructions

  1. Find a wild mount and make it run away.
  2. Chase it and right before it disappears, use the "Action" button to mount it.

Result

If done correctly, your mount will still disappear and you will be stuck in the air, unable to move (but you will still be able to use weapons, runes, etc...).

Tips

It takes 20 seconds to an animal to disappear after it begins to run away. Mounting it resets this timer. So, by mounting your wild mount and jumping off it right away, you can know exactly when this timer begins and make this glitch works consistently (in other words, you have to mount it around 19 seconds after you jumped off it). Using recipes giving a speed boost or stamina restoration/boost can really help to chase the mount.

Notes

This method still works in the 1.1.0 version of the game.

Method 3 - Killed Mount

Discovered: Sierra Rinehart
Verified: No

Instructions

  1. Find a Lynel and kill it when you can mount it (you have to make it kneel, by hitting it with an arrow in the face for example).
  2. At the same moment, before it disappears, use the "Action" button to mount it.

Result

If done correctly, you will mount a corpse while it is disappearing and you will be stuck in the air, unable to move (but you will still be able to use weapons, runes, etc...).

Notes

This method still works in the 1.1.0 version of the game.
