Taming
|
I'll start out the taming section by saying, Taming is a very hard skill to advance in. In no way should you expect an easy road to GM, but, because of its difficulty you will find the prize at the end of the road is very rewarding and worth it.

The Ten Top Tips of Taming
- Attempt to tame a creature three times if you havent gained move on
- use safe spots as often as possible higher level aggressive creatures can often endanger your life
- cross server lines often and die if gains slow up real bad
- have a runebook of nothing but prime taming spots
- rename all creatures with your "trademark" like I always put namor at the end of mine
- because of the recent text patches all release doesnt work anymore so just spam all follow me until it goes wild
- Tame mainly in power hour as it isnt worth it to tame outside power hour
- feed all animals one food at a time 1 apple does the same as a stack of 3
- each time fed animals replenish 30% stamina so if your mount is fatigued feed it three apples each one at a time
- at 80 Lore 80 taming you have a high chance of controlling the Big six

Pre-Tamed Animals
Pre-tamed animals are harder to tame than animals which have never been tamed before. Taming a creature that has been tamed twice before, will be harder for you and give you better gains than if it had never been tamed before. The following table shows you how much harder it is to tame an animal, depending on how many times it has been tamed. Note: When the amount of skill needed to tame an animal is higher than 100.0, it cannot be tamed at all, no matter what your skill level.
Untamed = Minimum
1x Tamed = Minimum + 4.8
2x Tamed = Minimum + 19.2
3x Tamed = Minimum + 43.2
4x Tamed = Minimum + 76.8

Taming Spots
Bulls area in Delucia
This spot is obviously inside and outside delucia. It is a great spot for bulls as well as great harts here and there.
Above Papua
This area is above Papua. This area has a great spawn of hellcats(large and small), hell hounds, lava lizards and Giant toads. If you notice where the UOAM dot is, that is a safespot on GL (not sure about other shards).
Further above Papua
This is once again above Papua but a bit further up. This area has a high spawn of hell creatures near by with strong mongbats, giant toads, aligators, and snakes as well. Once again you will notice that the UOAM dot is next to a "mountain wall", at this spot you can rel por(teleport) over and lure creatures over so you can tame them. A great spot just dont get stuck on the south side of the wall.
Outside East gate of Delucia
Great area for great harts, also great as a follow up taming spot after you finish off the bulls area. High spawn of great harts with hinds in the mix as well. If you are on a weak character watch out as Orc spawns are frenquent.
Center of Hedgemaze
Bards are often at this spot which can be somewhat of a nuisance but other than that minor problem it can be a great spot for bulls, cows and goats. If the bards there provoking become a problem because two things you want to tame are provoke just ask someone to peacemake, most times they are glad to help.
Ice/Dagger Isle
Ice is a wonderful place for any level tamer. It has things anywhere from 30 skill up to 65, which is sufficient enough to GM there. It can be quite laggy because of the mass amounts of houses and high creature spawn. But has shown to be quite a well spot to tame for any level tamer.
Jhelom Farm
Jhelom farm/bull pen has about the same spawn as the hedgemaze farm but is a bit more spread out, making it easier to move around. It is on the North jhelom island.
Outside Minoc(east)
This area is east of the Minoc mines. It has a HIGH spawn of animals including goats, great harts, hinds, grizzly bears, horses, bears (brown, black), panthers, cougars, and bulls. The server line through the center of this area can be annoying at times but overall isnt a problem. This area is a deifnite must for any tamer.
Minoc Moongate
Easily accessible by any character, and great for spawn of mid-level creatures such as panthers, great harts, grizzlies, bulls, and cougars.
Trinsic Moongate
Once again easily accesssible by any character and great for any level tamer. High spawn of mid-level creatures as mentioned before(minoc moongate). A personal favorite of mine because of the large amount of grounds to cover.
"Newbie Dungeon" (passage to trinsic/delucia)
Great for the high-level tamer, with a fast spawn of lava lizards close to the entrance. There is a trick to trapping the lava lizards where the UOAM dot is. A personal favorite of mine.
