Diablo 4’s vehicles come in handy as you explore the hellish, war-torn realms. Quests to obtain these creatures may appear early, but you’ll have to wait until much later in the campaign to obtain them. Here is a Diablo 4 Donan favor guide to help you get mounts in-game.
How to get mounts in Diablo 4
You will visit the following cities. Kyovashad Early stages of the campaign. There you will meet the stable master who has a quest called Donan’s Favor. Here is the kicker. Even if the quest appears at this stage, it cannot be completed until Act 4.
To get the mount for Diablo 4, you have to go further until the start of Act 4. There you will receive the main quest called A Master’s Touch. In it, you will need to speak with Donan, who is in the Cathedral of Light in Kyovashad.
After talking to Donnan, go back to the stable master and you’ll be able to use Old Nell Steed. He also has two of his, Gray Steed and Mottled Steed, each of which he can be purchased for 20,000 gold.
Diablo 4 Mounting Controls and Features
Either way, here’s how to complete the Diablo 4 Donan’s Favor quest and earn your mount. Here are some things to remember:
- Call the horse by pressing the right button on the D-Pad. However, this has a slight cooldown. Cooldown is only 8 seconds if you can get off your horse beforehand. However, if the horse is hit multiple times and rampages, the cooldown will be over 20 seconds for him.
- You can get off normally by pressing the B button. On the other hand, by pressing the X button, you can perform a jumping attack combined with dismounting.
- The right trigger (RT/R2) is used to gallop the horse. It has a finite charge (that is, represented by spurs) that replenishes over time. You can sprint into swarms of enemies and drive through them.
- Horses are mostly used in Overworld maps. Cannot be summoned in dungeons or basements/basements.
- Gold and loot can be picked up while riding a horse. Similarly, shrines can also be activated. Unfortunately, certain sections (such as ladders and crawlspaces) still require manual movement. Additionally, barricades must be destroyed with normal attacks.

Another important factor to remember is that most enemies on the Overworld map will avoid your vehicle for at least a few seconds. However, if you get too close or accidentally throw the ball, they will also become aggressive and chase you.
