Mounts
From EQ2i, the EverQuest II wiki
For an alphabetic list of all the mounts see, Category:Mount (Equipment Type) instead.
Mounts are one of the methods of transportation in the game. Think of a mount as a beneficial spell cast on you for a specified amount of a time that increases your running speed and has the bonus of looking nifty at the same time by showing you riding on a creature's back.

[edit] General Information
Mounts are typically summoned to a caster by activating an item, such as a whistle. Of all the mounts in game, only the tinkered ones and certain quest rewards have a set number of charges and must be procured anew once their charges are used up. All others are yours to keep once they are purchased, but may need to be resummoned after their standard duration time expires. Most mounts last for 24 hours or until you dismiss it, whichever comes first. After that time you must resummon your mount.
Mounts will temporarily disappear any time you ride another form of transportation that flies or runs, such as a gryphon, sokokar, horse, or cloud, but will automatically reappear once you land. They also temporarily disappear any time you climb a wall. In some zones, your mount will temporarily disappear from view but still provide the benefit of any buffs until you zone out again (for example, any crafting zones).
