Torrent
The Torrent is an item needed to equip your horse in the Elder Ring. It is a powerful mount that can sprint and double jump. It also helps you traverse the vast Lands Between. Mounted combat is an advantage against certain foes and can offset the disadvantage of flying. It is best to equip Torrent if you plan on doing horseplay often. In Elder Ring, you can also purchase this item for your horse to maximize its potential.
Spectral Steed Whistle
The Spectral Steed Whistle is a powerful item that can be used to summon a horse or mount. When used, a summoned horse will be called Torrent, and it will be able to double jump and attack while mounted. The horse will have a chance to teleport and can use the Spirit Springs to get a longer distance or jump higher.
Double-jump
Elden Ring allows you to double-jump while riding your horse, which is useful in saving your life from a potentially fatal fall. This trick only works if the fall is less than 20 meters, however. This is due to a weird bug. But luckily, you can easily work around this issue by using a Spectral Steed Whistle or d-pad to summon a horse and double-jump while riding.
Spectral Steed Whistle limitations
In Elder Ring, a Spectral Steed Whistle is a useful item that lets you summon a horse. You can equip it as a Quick Item and store it in your extra storage pouches. It works just like the other horses’ consumables and vials. It can also be used to summon and desummon a horse underneath you, and you can even hop off of it to move from one place to another. It is a handy tool to have in your arsenal, and it can make the difference between getting ahead and falling behind.
Getting a Torrent
Elden Ring has a unique riding system that lets you summon your player horse Torrent. The player horse speeds up exploration and leads you to places that you wouldn’t otherwise find. In order to summon a Torrent, players must find a special item, the Horse Whistle, which can be found at the site of Grace (south-east of the Gatefront Ruins).
Using a Spectral Steed Whistle
Using a Spectral Steed whistle is a unique item that summons a Spectral Steed, a kind of horse. This item can be acquired through Melina, a vendor in the Site of Grace. You can equip this item to your horse whenever you wish, and it can be found in your inventory. It is also useful for dismounting and leaping off of your horse while moving.
Unlocking a Torrent
You can use the Torrent to traverse the world map. This horse can perform double jumps and reach higher platforms than your other mounts. It has a health bar, but it can die and require resting at the Site of Grace or using a Healing Flask. In addition, Torrent can also be summoned. The key to summoning a Torrent is to know where to find one. You can summon it anywhere in the open world, but not inside of dungeons or Legacy dungeons.
