Ride the Giant Horse Quest Walkthrough

  2. Speak to Baddek
  3. Head to the Highland Stables
  4. Head to Ibara Butte
  5. Sneak Up on the Horse
  6. Tame the Horse

Video Guide

1. Trigger the Shrine Quest

Head to Zokassa Ridge, at the top of the small mountain here. You will find the shrine space, without a shrine. Examine the Shrine and follow the beam to a man by the Crystal.

2. Speak to Baddek

If you passed by the Highland Stables on your way here, you will have heard rumors of a Giant White Horse. It seems Baddek is also looking for it! He will agree to give you the crystal if you find the horse and bring it to him.

3. Head to the Highland Stables

If you are early in the game, you will need to sleep at the stables on a Malanya bed to add an additional circle of stamina for taming the horse. You will need at least 2 circles of Stamina for it. If you cannot, you can also use Stamina boosting items.

4. Head to Ibara Butte

If you take Baddek's advice and speak to the people at the stable, their clues should eventually lead you to Ibara Butte, by the Lake of the Horse God.

5. Sneak Up on the Horse

Try to be very stealthy when sneaking up on the horse, keeping any noisy armor off of you for now. Note that it is likely to notice you once you're near so sprint at the last second and mount the horse!

6. Tame the Horse

Hit the L button until the horse is tamed. Again, you will need at least 2 circles of stamina in order to do so.

6a. Register the Horse

You can keep the Giant White Horse by registering it at the Highlands Stable! This is completely optional though.

7. Return to Baddek

Return to Baddek and bring the horse with you. He will not take the horse, but will give you the crystal regardless!

8. Bring the Crystal to the Shrine

Use Ultrahand to bring the Crystal to the Shrine and unlock it!
