Companion Mounting

To make a Companion or Pet ride with you on the Meirm Cicada Mount, make sure you have no companion summoned when activating the mount. You can then open your Companion and Contacts Window (default: N) and click the summon button to put a Companion on the Mount.

This works if you want to summon any companion of your choice onto the mount.
If you have a specific companion that you want to ride with you, summon the mount and your current companion should appear instantly, if they do not, click the Companion icon on your screen and they will hop in and out of the mount on their own.

If the companion you are currently using is not Mount Compatible, you must despawn your Companion and spawn another from the Companions Window (N) that can be used.
