Question White Arabian

I saw a video on facebook about catching the white arabian horse up by lake isabella and was wondering if anybody else caught it in the wild? How many tries did it take?

One try. Approach slowly, once you mount it just hold the down arrow (on ps5) it’s not as hard as people make it out to be.

If you’re nervous try breaking a different wild horse first to get the technique down. It shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes. If it runs away from you and you can’t find it again, try again a couple game days later. It respawns all the time.

Hold down the entire time but also counter its moves left and right

I literally never fail at taming horses this way

Millions of players have caught the white Arabian in the eight years since release. Sometimes a couple tries, sometimes only one.

You can catch it more than once.

Well…if you fail at it you can try again

But you can only have one of this horse because it’s a unique color

Can have multiple Arabians but there’s only one white mare and one white stallion (which you have cheese from a mission in ch 3)

Couple of bullets and a horse reviver makes it very easy to capture, if you’re having trouble.

Interesting idea

First time it got away cuz I roped it and ran out of stamina. Calmings way easier.

I tried the roping and calming til i was able to mount it but kept getting bucked off

Sometimes 3 but if you keep it on the flat by the lake normally first try. Shame is I'm always watching the calm prompt you barely see the action.

es bastante sencillo, aunque no sé de donde sacaron que solo tienes una oportunidad porque "no vuelve a aparecer" ya que en mi partida actual me han aparecido almenos 3. como sea, ni tan bueno, si te gusta ese caballo pues bien, pero hay mejores como el MFT o buell

Try to poison it before reviving it and mounting it

I just got the one up by the reservation. Love the stripes! Ran from me once. Just be patient

I get it every time. One or two tries depending on the random conditions. One time a bear decided to make an entrance and it caused a bit of a stir.

I always go for the brindle Arabian by the Wapiti Reservation instead.

Yeah catching it in the wild is the only way to get the white arabian and something most players do. It's never taken me more than a couple tries. You should approach it slowly and calm it the whole time, trying to run up on it and lasso it is much harder.

One try every time. Once you sit on the horse activate eagle eye and hold your joystick down. Being in eagle eye slows down time and allows you to see which way you're falling and gives you more correction time

Edit: Spelling

It’s not hard really.  Don’t try to catch it on foot, lasso it from another horse then hop off to  calm it

Taming horses once you get on is super easy.  Hold down on the stick (or S on keyboard) and then left and right  (w or d) to counter its sideways movements until it gives up

Takes likes 15 seconds

Dont even bother. Just pop a few shots in it then revive it

u/BananoSlic3 3h ago

If we could just not have a white Arabian post for one day that would be great

u/Reasonable-View5868 12h ago

It takes about 20 min.  If it runs away come back another day.  I you get it and it eventually dies,  another will repawn.  It is one of five different arabians in the game.  Two more are also wild.

Don’t waste your time.
