Dismount is a special move that was added during the Age of Shadows expansion in 2003.
Effects
This special move will only work if the caster is unmounted. An exception to this rule is that if two mounted opponents are both wielding lances, both may use dismount. After an opponent has been knocked off their mount, they are unable to remount for a short duration.
This special move is primarily used in PvP situations, as most NPCs are immune to its effects or unmounted. The effects of dismount can be duplicated by using a bola with the same restrictions.
Primary weapons
Weapons with a primary ability of Dismount require 70 or higher in the appropriate fighting skill and 30 or higher in tactics.
Secondary weapons
Weapons with a secondary ability of Dismount require 90 or higher in the appropriate fighting skill and 60 or higher in tactics.

Publishes
- Publish 46 (10 Aug 2007): Anything that can dismount a player character will now force an opponent out of Animal Form. This includes weapon special moves such as Dismount and Riding Swipe, items such as Bolas, and any creatures with Dismount, Raging Stomp, or Bola Throwing AI. The same timer will come into play for returning to animal form after being bola'd as currently exists towards remounting after being bola'd.
Added remount delay for Animal Form when using bolas or the Dismount weapon special maneuver. - Ultima Online: Age of Shadows (11 Feb 2003): Added.
