exactly that, if raw hide wasnt op, you would just get ganked by mongol hordes. with horses being shit in pvp, at least inlands is somewhat save, contrarry too the riverways that are roamed by pirates in there snekjas.
Or it could just be adjusted to have it work against aggressive horse activity but not instantly make anyone on a horse a sitting duck (complete with loss of horse) once a ganker appears on-screen. For example, Axus suggested elsewhere to just have the horse flee with the rider still on it. You could have it run around randomly for long enough to break combat, then prevent anyone on that horse from initiating combat for a while (bound to the horse; the rider can get off to enter combat, but cannot remount while in combat). Would make them useless in PvP, but you'd be able to get away if someone used Raw Hide on you.
