Saddle at a glance

Saddle comes from Dungeon chest loot, Nether Fortress chest loot, fishing (treasure), and trading (Leatherworker), and Transportation is where it sits as a transportation item. It claims a slot each, so nine hotbar slots hold nine and a double chest of 54 slots takes 54.

Travel is the whole point of Saddle, and it earns its slot on any trip longer than a short walk. Of the 6 kinds of generated chest that can hold Saddle, nether fortress chests are the best bet at about 33% per chest. It sits between Rail and Spruce Boat in Transportation, number 22 of 25 there.

How to obtain

  • Dungeon chest loot

Notes
