All mechanical mounts in Crimson Desert and how to get them

Mechanical mounts are one of several traveling options you can find in Crimson Desert, and there are three options available to choose from. These are mechanical exosuits that provide you with protection and combat ability when you travel in them.

If you're tired of riding horses and dragons, let's find out how to gain all the available mechanical mounts.

How to get all the mechanical mounts in Crimson Desert

The unlock condition for the mechanical mounts varies based on the model. There are three of them to be found/made.

  • Scout Automation
  • Golden Star Mech
  • A.T.A.G

Scout Automation

The Scout Automation is extremely useful for those who want to focus on exploration. It doesn't offer much combat potential like the two other models, but mobility won't be a problem. You can craft it after finding its blueprint.

To find the blueprint, you'll need to check a treasure chest inside Marni's Laboratorium Complex to the north of Sanctum of Devotion. Once you obtain the blueprint, head to the Delesyia Workshop. You'll then be able to craft the mount (provided you have all the required resources).

Golden Star Mech

The Golden Star Mech is arguably the hardest mount to find. It's perfectly suited for those who want to pick something that helps them in combat. To obtain it, you'll need to defeat the Golden Star Mechanical Dragon boss. You'll find the boss in the Delesyia region near the Palace of Urdavah. This content is part of the Chapter 11 quest chain (Foreboding Shadow).

Once the boss is defeated, it will drop a component (key). You can use the key to unlock and pilot the Golden Star Mech. However, the unlock option didn't appear on my end: this could just be a bug that might get solved in future updates. You'll face off against this mech in the boss fight.

A.T.A.G

The A.T.A.G is the tank of all mounts, and it offers good combat power along with defensive capabilities at the same time. While you can get it temporarily during Chapter 10, this method is about unlocking it permanently.

Once you reach Chapter 11, you'll be able to craft it permanently. First, accept the New Designs faction quest. Speak with artisan Marek at the Zargan Tankworks in Gorthak Territory to obtain the Small Kuku A.T.A.G. Design. Once you get the Kuku design, you'll get the full blueprint of the A.T.A.G.
