Tips

Horseshoes provide both Attack and Stamina regeneration bonuses.
Stamina regeneration is especially useful for long-distance travel across Pywel.

Horseshoe Tier Progression

Horseshoes in Crimson Desert follow a five-tier rarity system. Each tier provides higher base stats and better refinement scaling. The tiers and their corresponding rarity levels are:

Tier 1 (Common): Shabby Horseshoes and Ironstone Horseshoes (+1 Attack, +1 Stamina regen). Base cost: 43 silver.
Tier 2 (Uncommon): Bronze Horseshoes and Silver Iron Horseshoes (+2 Attack, +2 Stamina regen). Base cost: 86 silver.
Tier 3 (Rare): Steel Horseshoes and Silvermoon Horseshoes (+3 Attack, +3 Stamina regen). Base cost: 273 silver.
Tier 4 (Epic): Bow Knot Horseshoes and Steelheart Horseshoes (+5 Attack, +4 Stamina regen). Base cost: 1,220 silver.
Tier 5 (Legendary): Four-Leaf Horseshoes (+8 Attack, +5 Stamina regen). Base cost: 5,410 silver.

Within each tier, horseshoes that share the same rarity have identical base stats and refinement costs. The choice between same-tier options (for example, Steel vs. Silvermoon at Tier 3) is largely cosmetic.

Where to Buy Horseshoes

Horseshoes are sold at Saddlery Vendors found near stables throughout Pywel. Saddleries stock horseshoes alongside saddles and stirrups. The following saddlery locations have been confirmed:

Hernand Main Saddlery (north of Hernand Castle and Lioncrest Manor): stocks early-game horseshoes.
Hernand Goldleaf Tradepost Saddlery (near the tradepost): useful for picking up gear during trade runs.
Calphade Saddlery (south of the Calphade Training Field): mid-game convenience.
Delesyian Main Saddlery (near Finhold Netmakers): stocks higher-tier horseshoes.
Tommaso Saddlery (center of Tommaso Town): centrally located for easy access.
Varnia Saddlery (near Alabaster Bridge entrance): two closely placed facilities.

Not all saddleries stock every tier of horseshoe. Higher-tier items (Epic, Legendary) may only appear at vendors in later-game regions or after increasing merchant trust. Trust increases through daily greetings, completing requests, and gifting items.

Horseshoe Role in Mount Gear

Horseshoes occupy one of five horse gear slots. Each slot provides a different type of bonus:

Saddle: increases maximum health.
Horseshoes: add Attack and Stamina regeneration.
Stirrups: add Stamina regeneration (stacks with horseshoe bonus).
Champron: increases Attack.
Barding: increases Defense.

Horseshoes are one of the most important early-game purchases because their passive Stamina regeneration reduces the need to stop and rest your horse during long rides. For exploration-focused players, prioritizing horseshoes and a good saddle early on will noticeably improve travel efficiency.

Refinement

All horseshoes can be refined at a blacksmith to increase their stats. Refinement does not cost silver or gold; it requires raw materials such as Iron Ore, Copper Ore, timber, and hides gathered through mining and logging. Levels 1 through 4 use standard materials, while level 5 and above also require Abyss Artifacts. Higher-rarity horseshoes benefit more from each refinement level, making Rare or better horseshoes the best long-term investment for refinement resources.
