How does one attack with a mounted beast?

By Darth Poopdeck, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

PC is riding a beast. PC wants to make the beast attack.

Do they roll piloting or survival... and THEN roll brawl check for the beast? or only the piloting/survival roll (one roll)?

Stay on Target, page 82:
"A rider may employ Perform A Combat Check with Vehicle Weapons , using the natural weaponry of the mount he is riding by performing a Survival check "

You handle it the same way you would with a vehicle weapon, but roll Survival instead of Gunnery.

Optionally, use Move to fling the beast at your target.
