Turtle mount in action

The Hardy Saddle is a Mount summoning item. When used, it summons a Turtle Mount that can swim and has increased movement speed in liquids, but reduced movement speed (10 mph) and jump height on land. It can be found in Golden Crates, with 10% (1/10) chance to be obtained. The turtle, as it is fast for underwater travel, combined with any kind of diving gear/helmet, can be an ideal setup for underwater travel.

Trivia

• Despite its name, the Turtle Mount resembles a tortoise.
• The buff tooltip is a reference to "One if by land, Two if by sea," from the poem Paul Revere's Ride.
