-The steed has a movement rate of 12 hexes per round, and is able to turn up to 180 degree in a circle of 3 hexes (rider must be a fighter class or needs to make a [[Ability Checks|dexterity check]] to remain mounted). The speed cannot be increased, as the phantom speed cannot "run."
+As the phantasm is able to predict and compensate for the recipient, he or she receives the equivalent of [[Horse Handling I (sage ability)|horse handling I]] ability when mounted aboard the steed.  If the recipient already possesses this ability, the benefit of the steed grants the equivalent of [[Horse Handling II (sage ability)|horse handling II]].  These benefits allow the rider to fight from and direct the steed, regardless of the recipient's class or even their weight and height.
-Fighters may fight from the steed, and so long as the steed does not move more than 2 hexes during a round where concentration is required, a caster may cast spells from it.

-Phantom steeds make no sound, being composed of black, semi-substantial black smoke. Creatures of [[Intelligence (ability stat)|animal or semi-intelligence]] will not move within 20 feet of a phantom steed. The steed is able to suffer up to 15 hit points of damage, and cannot be struck by normal weapons (silver or magic weapons do normal damage).
 The steed is able to move over firm ground up to 8th level, but if the caster is 8th level or better, a muddy bog or sinking sand may be moved over as easily. At 10th level, the steed will ride over water, and at 12th the steed is able to move over air for a maximum of 3 rounds; at 14th level, the steed may fly continuously.
