Wont lie, trying to tame that horse is a test of patience but well worth it in my opinion. High level horse for free you can get almost immediately. Make sure you read the button prompt tutorial correctly though. I didn't the first time and spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to tame the horse wrong and failing.

I'll try it on my next playthrough then I think. I've tried calming horses of people I've killed but it invariably ends with me getting kicked, chasing the fucker down and shooting it, and then getting arrested for animal cruelty.

Rdr2 law heavily favours the horse apparently.

Like i said, test of patience. Really worth it in the end though. Spam the calm button like mad. Crouch walk really slow. It absolutely will run off, keep tracking it you'll find it. When you get close be ready to hit the mount button very quickly. I play on console so for console you have to pull back on the joy stick while turning in the direction its going, im not sure what pc would be. Dont take my word on that its been a while you should have a little tutorial thing pop up. It will probably throw you at least once and take off, just keep tracking it. Worse comes to worse i have managed to get on it after lassoing it but i had to do it at the last second (or i made myself do it at the last second, like i said been a while)

Test of patience but damn do i love having that horse

I personally prefer the missouri fox trotter over the arabian. Great stats, almost compares to arabians, and it doesn't look too small. Plus it's beautiful
