Description
Animal Taming is a skill that allows you to tame pets to become your allies. These pets will follow your commands. Higher levels in taming allow you to train much tougher creatures such as Dragons while lower level taming allows you to tame basic animals such as horses. Clicking on an animal once (if it's tamable) will bring up a "Tame" button, you will attempt to reason with the animal or monster until you either fail or succeed. If you succeed, the animal or monster will now listen to your typed commands (Listed below)
Your Animal Taming and Animal Lore skills affect your ability to both tame the creature as well as command it. If your Animal Lore skill is too low, the creature will ignore your commands and get upset. Animal Taming allows you to acquire Meta Pets.
Notes
- Power Scrolls and Skill Scrolls are available for this skill.
- For a complete list of tameable creatures you can refer to the Taming Charts
Recommended Training
As one of the famously hardest skill to level, it is recommended to follow guides in order to maximize the Taming gains during training. Taming gains are difficulty based, meaning that you will not gain skill when Taming something that is considered too easy or too hard. Taming can also be passively trained whenever a tamed pet, or pets, kill a creature. The chance to gain is based on the relative strength of the pet used, the damage the pet dealt, and the tamers skill level. The Tamed Creature's Minimum Taming Requirement must be within 5 skill points of the Tamer's current skill level. Relative Strength of your pet is based on the following:
- Armor
- Maximum Hitpoints
- Strength
- Dexterity
- Skill levels
- Special Abilities such as Relics or Boss Abilities
Notes:
- You cannot gain taming from gated mobs.
