I really enjoy the whole Riders of Rohan effect of leading my all-cavalry force in a thunderous charge against the scurrilous Nords. However, I don't like getting all bunched up: I want to be out in front making a huge spectacle of myself, not back in the pack. What is the absolute fastest horse in the game?
Note: I already have a heavily armored horse for fights when that's a better option than speed (I carry it around in my bag, I guess…).
Best Answer
The Courser is the fastest horse type in the game, with a base speed stat of 50. A horse with the Champion variant grants +4 speed, and a horse with the Spirited variant grants +2 speed.
This means that a Champion Courser combines for a blistering 54 speed, whereas the standard Warhorse has a speed of 40.
