How to Connect a Horse to a Wagon in Black Desert Online: The Ultimate Guide

If you’re playing Black Desert Online and want to start transporting goods by wagon, you’ll need to know how to connect your horse to the wagon. This guide will cover all the steps you need to take, from acquiring a wagon to getting your horse hitched up and ready to go.

Acquiring a Wagon

Before you can connect a horse to a wagon, you’ll need to have a wagon in the first place. There are a few different ways to acquire a wagon in Black Desert Online, so let’s go over them.

Crafting a Wagon

The most hands-on way to get a wagon is to craft one yourself. There are several different types of wagon you can craft, each with their own materials requirements, but the basic process is the same. Here’s what you’ll need to do:

  1. Acquire the appropriate materials for your chosen wagon type.
  2. Find a Wagon Workshop in a city or town.
  3. Access the Wagon Workshop and select the wagon you want to craft.
  4. Place the materials into the crafting interface.
  5. Wait for the wagon to be crafted.

Purchasing a Wagon

If you don’t want to go through the hassle of crafting a wagon, you can purchase one instead. There are a few different vendors who sell wagons in Black Desert Online:

  • Stable Keepers: You can buy a basic wagon from a Stable Keeper for around 10,000 silver.
  • Marketplace: If you’re willing to spend more silver, you can try your luck on the Marketplace. Wagons can go for anywhere from a few hundred thousand to millions of silver.
  • Pearl Shop: If you’re willing to spend real money, you can buy a wagon from the Pearl Shop. These are purely cosmetic and do not provide any gameplay advantages.

Connecting a Horse to a Wagon

Once you’ve got your wagon, it’s time to connect your horse to it. Here’s what you need to do:

Step 1: Approach the Wagon

Position your horse beside the wagon and press the “R” key to access the Wagon Interface.

Note: Ensure that you have a wagon equipped.

Step 2: Attach the Wagon

From the Wagon Interface, select “Connect Wagon” then click a highlighted slot on the wagon. The UI will then prompt you to select a horse.

Step 3: Select the Horse

Select the horse you want to connect to the wagon from your list of available horses. Only horses that are nearby will show up in the list, so make sure your chosen horse is close enough.

Step 4: Confirm the Connection

Once you’ve selected your horse, the UI will display the selected horse’s name and the option to connect. Click “Connect” to finalize the connection.

Step 5: Dismount

After you confirm the connection, you’ll need to dismount your horse in order to start driving.

Note: If you need to disconnect the horse from the wagon, simply access the Wagon Interface and select "Disconnect Wagon".
