How to Obtain
Horseshoes can be purchased from Saddlery Vendors found throughout Pywel. Each major region has at least one saddlery that stocks horseshoes alongside saddles and stirrups. Key saddlery locations include:
Hernand Main Saddlery (north of Hernand Castle and Lioncrest Manor): the earliest saddlery most players encounter.
Hernand Goldleaf Tradepost Saddlery (near the Goldleaf Tradepost): convenient during trading or resource runs.
Calphade Saddlery (south of the Calphade Training Field): frequently visited due to nearby combat training.
Delesyian Main Saddlery (near Finhold Netmakers, south of the Delesyian Institute): stocks higher-tier gear.
Tommaso Saddlery (center of Tommaso Town): easy access without deviating from main routes.
Varnia Saddlery (near Alabaster Bridge entrance): two closely placed facilities for quick stops.
Higher-rarity horseshoes may not appear at every vendor. Building merchant trust (up to 100 points through daily greetings, completing requests, and gifting items) can unlock additional stock at saddleries. Higher trust also provides price discounts on purchases.
Usage Tips
Steel Horseshoes are a Tier 3 (Rare) horseshoe that provides +3 Attack and +3 Stamina regeneration per tick. At a base cost of 273 silver, they represent a solid mid-game upgrade over Tier 2 options like Bronze Horseshoes and Silver Iron Horseshoes.
Steel Horseshoes share identical stats with Silvermoon Horseshoes, so the choice between them comes down to availability and personal preference. Both cost 273 silver at base price and provide the same Attack and Stamina bonuses.
For endgame content, consider upgrading to Tier 4 options like Bow Knot Horseshoes or Steelheart Horseshoes, which provide +5 Attack and +4 Stamina regeneration.
How to Equip
To equip horseshoes, stand near your active horse and open your inventory. Switch to the horse inventory tab (press R2 on controller) to view your mount's five gear slots: Saddle, Horseshoes, Stirrups, Champron, and Barding. Select the horseshoe item and click Equip to apply it. You can also access the horse inventory through the Lantern button menu while riding.
