I just hit level 9 with my Assimar Nature Oracle and I am taking the feat extra Revelation to get Bonded Mount. I've determined that the rules seem to indicate that I should take either a horse or a camel and I'm going to take a Horse. I have a lot of Charisma and I know that I'll be able to command my horse without a problem, we use ACs on the same initiative turn as the PCs (which makes complete sense to me) but I am trying to build an effective mount for combat.
I don't completely understand the Horse's melee abilities, I understand that I get "Combat Trained" but I don't see exactly what that means. I assumed that it meant that they get those tricks specified, but I've read other places that it makes their hoof attacks into non-secondary attacks.
I want to start a thread here wherein I can get some answers.
My hope is to have a horse that will get to attack a bunch of times and do some decent damage since my character is solely an AC tank that can cast a lot of few spells per day...please help. If you could give some form of Pathfinder justification or site some rule that would be appreciated since I only play Pathfinder in the PFS...
Thanks for you time and effort!
