Added mount stat/skill icons to 1 table
The Small Black-Maned Boar is a temporary ground mount in Crimson Desert. Despite its name suggesting a smaller stature, this boar has 450 HP, which is nearly double the standard Black-maned Boar's 230 HP. It belongs to the black-maned boar family and shares the same dark mane running along its spine, though its smaller build makes it slightly more agile.
Small Black-Maned Boars are commonly found in the same habitats as their larger relatives. They travel in groups and can often be seen near a Black-Maned Boar Boss, making it possible to encounter multiple boar mount options in a single area. As a temporary mount, the Small Black-Maned Boar provides decent combat utility for short engagements.

The Small Black-Maned Boar shares the same stat profile as the Rock Tusk Warthog: 450 HP, 100 attack, and 25 defense. It is a solid mid-tier boar mount.
Small Black-Maned Boars are tamed through the standard wild animal subduing process:
Locate a Small Black-Maned Boar in grasslands, forest clearings, or open terrain. They are often found in groups alongside other boar variants.
Attack the boar until it collapses from exhaustion. With 450 HP, the fight is moderate in length.
Once the boar is downed, approach quickly and press the ride button to mount it.
The mounting window is short. Stay close to the boar during the fight to avoid missing the opportunity.

While riding a Small Black-Maned Boar, players have access to standard boar combat abilities:
Charge attacks that deal frontal damage and push enemies backward.
Tusk swipes hitting enemies on either side of the boar.
Kliff can use his own weapons while mounted for additional damage.
The Small Black-Maned Boar matches the Rock Tusk Warthog in stats (both 450 HP, 100 attack). The standard Black-maned Boar is weaker at just 230 HP. The Black-Maned Boar Boss is the top-tier boar option at 1,035 HP with 195 attack.
Small Black-Maned Boars are often found near the Boar Boss. If you see a group of boars, look for the largest one, as it may be the boss variant with far superior stats.
Their compact size and decent HP make them a quick and practical option when you need a temporary combat mount in a hurry.
Use the charge attack to disrupt enemy formations before dismounting to fight on foot.
