From UO:PvE Wiki

Riding Swipe: 30 base mana. No current weapon assignment.

Development source reviewed on 29 October 2026. In-game availability is unverified.

Ability information#

PropertyValue
Base mana30
AvailabilityNo current weapon assignment

Requirements#

  • Requires the equipped weapon’s assigned primary/secondary slot, normally 70/90 base weapon skill and (unless overridden below) 70/90 base Tactics. Use Best Weapon Skill can satisfy the weapon threshold with base Swords, Macing or Fencing.
  • Unavailable under the current shard skill policy: the explicit secondary skill is disabled.
  • Explicitly requires Bushido base 50; this skill is disabled. Requires an SE-capable client and a mounted victim.

Effects#

  • Source implementation: an unmounted attacker dismounts the victim and damages a living mount; a mounted attacker damages the rider and attempts three seconds of paralysis.
  • Extra physical damage is 10 + truncate(10 × (Bushido - 50)/70 + 5). The shared paralysis immunity is set for eight seconds.

Notes#

  • No current weapon declares this ability. The living-mount healing restriction is a TODO, not an implemented rule; ethereal mounts receive no mount damage in the unmounted branch.
  • Base mana is reduced by the shared ability skill-total discount and Lower Mana Cost rules; a second paid ability within the three-second cooldown costs double.
