(If Torrent was merely stance-broken, he can be resummoned at no cost.) Mounted Tactics You can still summon Torrent even after he dies, but doing so costs a charge from the Flask of Crimson Tears and requires navigating a confirmation dialog. If Torrent dies, you will fall off and be stunned for multiple seconds. If Torrent takes damage (or if you just want to give your good boy a treat), he can be healed with Rowa Raisins, Sweet Raisins, Frozen Raisins, and the Flask of Crimson Tears. Enemies wielding Torchpoles are particularly problematic on horseback, since each attack connects multiple times from a relatively long distance. If this happens, it'll take a long time for you to get back on your feet, and you'll be vulnerable to attacks until then. Torrent also has a Stance bar of his own that repeated attacks can quickly fill, causing you to fall off. In enclosed spaces, Torrent's speed can be more of a hindrance than a benefit, especially given how long it takes him to turn around. There are some situations in which mounted combat isn't the best option, though. Torrent's speed makes it easy to outmaneuver most foes or quickly back off to safely heal or attack at range. He also has a hefty health bar of his own, and incoming attacks that are lower to the ground may hit him and leave you unscathed. You can do battle while riding Torrent, and in many cases this may be easier than fighting on foot. Shields, Greatbows, and Ballistas are ineffective on horseback, and act as melee weapons instead. If you're wielding a Sacred Seal or a Glintstone Staff, you'll cast a spell instead of doing your right light attack. If you're wielding a Light Bow, Bow, or Crossbow, you'll use the normal control scheme for that weapon instead, with the exception that you still can't use its Skill. Larger weapons' drag attacks can even launch foes into the air! Although the timing is tricky, this is an excellent way to approach an enemy. The light attacks are simple swings of your weapon, while the drag attacks can be held to drag your weapon along the ground, releasing it with a powerful swing. Each attack has a left- and right-side counterpart, which determines which side of Torrent you swing your weapon on.
