LOTRO Reputation Mounts List

One of the things that surprised me when I first started playing The Lord of the Rings Online was the sheer volume of mounts you can acquire by playing the game. The primary way outside of Festivals is through acquiring Reputation Mounts from the various factions across Middle-Earth. So, as well as the Mithril Coins Mounts, I thought I’d collect together as many reputation horses and goats as possible. It turned out that, apart from one, I had acquired all of them up to Helm’s Deep in LOTRO!

How to Acquire Reputation Mounts

There are two requirements for being able to buy a reputation horse from a faction:

1. Kindred Standing: people won’t sell their prized animals to just anyone. You must earn their trust first.
2. The Right Currency: While many of the early reputation steeds require a large chunk of Coin (gold, silver and copper) that’s not true of many places. Often you’ll need to have some of the local currency. These are usually earnable through quests but may also be awarded for completing deeds in the region.

Mounts Through Deeds

Sometimes you can acquire your mount for free! By that I mean, work for it – but pay no coins or tokens. This is because occasionally a mount is acquired through the completion of a deed, rather than your reputation standing. I have included the ones I have here.

I am in the process of fixing layout issues here, so please bear with me. Thank you.

Most reputation mounts have the word “Prized” at the start. But that would make for awfully repetative reading! So, I’ve left that word off the steed name. Here are 25 Reputation Mounts you can earn in-game:

A Note to F2P/Premium Players

If you are Free-to-Play or Premium, your ability to buy the reputation steeds that require coin will be restricted. I believe even Premium players have a 5 Gold cap. If you are Premium, you can obtain:

• Prized Dark Chestnut Steed
• Prized Tundra Steed

But it will leave you with no coin!

TL;DR Collect All the Reputation Mounts!

For me, the main motivation behind hitting Kindred with factions is to acquire the Reputation Mounts. This includes even my characters that have War-Steeds. You cannot acquire these horses and goats any other way, so they are a reward for just playing LOTRO. So go forth, make friends and fill those stables with more horses – and goats!
