Hi folks!
Catching wild horses is pretty easy, but it may be a bit overwhelming and tough for totally new players.

I created a video that quickly goes over all the important points and shows you how to actually catch wild horses, the easy way.


More information about horses: https://www.naeu.playblackdesert.com/en-US/News/Detail?groupContentNo=3915&countryType=en-US

Hope it helps!
Any questions? Leave em down below! ^^

Space bar mashing never gets to right side. Is there a trick?

The trick is to alternate pointer fingers on space bar or any variation :) You dont need two hands on the  keyboard while that part is in play just hit space bar  "not hard" but alternate fingers fast and that is all you need then do at least 4 sugars min to be safe .

Sorry but a 4-sugar min is nonsense. I've caught over 100 horses and tried numerous techniques. It really depends on your training level and the horse's tier. Instead, watch the horse's behavior. If it seems nervous or skittish (rears its head, paws the ground, etc) give it a lump of sugar and wait the 6 sec. Repeat this until the horse appears to calm down (lowers its head). Then, say a brief prayer to the random-number gods, press R to mount, and hope for the best.

"Catching horses is 'easy'"

NOT if you have a MEMBRANE keyboard and live on the opposite side of the World to main servers.

15 of my Alts are Training Artisan 1 at least with main at Master 3.

My Warrior Alt, currently doing the Magnus Questline is stuck..... guess where and he is Artisan 1. Tried to complete quest via 10 return trips to the wagon and still he has to twhirl cause the bar, when he captures the mount, no matter how fast, one finger or two, quietly hitting or madly bashing he will not get beyond the first or second rearing because suddenly the bar that was above 50% suddenly falls to below 50% and does not budge passed 49% but rather nosedives.

I am not alone in this. There are many others who just accept slack, inadequate testing. Should anyone in PA desire to look at my history, they'll note that under the OLD system, I was able to capture horses. New one?  Not a hope in Hades as far as I can see. All that has changed is the system. Nothing my end at all.

Just for a laugh, am currently having my files checked and a couple of updates done to prepare for 10 more attempts.

If you do not hear from me, Situation Normal.

Should I get lucky, I will proudly announce it here.

I have personally not done Mangus yet so I'm not sure what you are refering to. There is a horse catching objective in there I assume?
Either way I don't know if it is any different than catching a wild horse in the overworld.

I know some months ago they revamped the horse catching minigames and it became significantly more difficult to keep the bar on the right side. Many horse trainers were complaining about it being way too difficult and way to punishing on your fingers/keyboard but they did change it to be more easy ever since.

Perhaps it is also related to your FPS or ping, who knows. I'm basing my opinions on my own experience as I do not know how other people are experiencing it.

Yes, there's a horse catching objective within the Magnus questline. It's the exact same as if you were to catch a horse in the overworld.

They made horse catching way easier with the most recent update, try again!
