== Description ==

'''Taming''' is a [[skill]] used to make an [[animal]] a [[pet]]. You can only have one pet at a time, if you have a pet and you tame another, your first pet will become untamed. Pets that become untamed will return to their normal hostile / non-hostile stance; ie if the animal is normally hostile it will begin attacking guards and players.

There is a penalty to taming for [[Blacklighter]]s; taming is still possible but with a higher level of difficulty.

Only animals can be tamed; for [[monster]]s you need to be a [[Priest]]/Priestess and a follower of [[Magranon]] or [[Libila]].

* A Priest/Priestess of Magranon at 40 [[faith]] can cast [[Dominate]] to tame monsters.

* A Priest/Priestess of Libila at 40 faith can cast [[Rebirth]] to raise the spirit of a slain animal, monster or player as a [[zombie]] pet.

== Method ==
You can use tame by activating an [[item]] the animal will eat. For some animals its [[seeds]], for others its [[meat]]/[[fish]].

'''Taming skill and status of animal '''

* 0-10 Upset
* 10-20 Nervous
* 20-30 Submissive
* 30-40 Calm
* 40-50 Tame
* 50-60 Loyal
* 60-70 Trusting
* 70-99 Loyal to death

The taming status can be used to know when your animal will go untame. Here is an explanation on how taming seems to work. When you tame an animal numerous times, at a 42 taming skill, for example, your animal will have a max "tamed level" of [42]. Over time, this value will [[decay]], and examining the animal to check its status can tell you on average how high this "level" is, with "upset" being the least reliable status, as your animal could go untame without further warning.

If a pet is hit, it will lose loyalty. Stronger animals lose more loyalty when hit then weak animals.

A pet can be ordered to go somewhere or to attack other animals/people. You can also lead a pet with a [[rope]].

A pet can't be tamed by another person while it's your pet. A higher taming skill will probably make the animal stay longer as your pet.

You can decide if your pet should go offline or stay online when you log off. Right-click something and select <tt>Pet > Go (off/on)line.</tt>

You can give your pet to another person (if they do not already have a pet). Right-click on person and select <tt>Pet > Give away pet</tt>.

The [[QL]] of the taming item speeds up the taming action. It is about 1 second less per 20 QL.

=== Important Notice ===

As of February 2008, when Mol-Rehan was introduced, Taming was made '''much''' harder. While past mechanics allowed you to just try and tame again when you failed, the new system will make the animal go aggressive and attack you if you fail by too large a margin. Additionally, it will lose a level of loyalty when this happens. If that wasn't enough, all animals had their taming difficulty severely raised, making it nearly impossible to tame a champion class animal and a gruesome project to tame even an ordinary bear with as high as 50 taming. You are advised to take extreme caution when attempting to tame something, preferably by fencing the animal in and taking refuge outside the gate if the animal goes berserk on you.

If the animal has at least a single level of loyalty left after going aggressive from a failed taming, it will revert to its tamed status again after a while, provided nobody attacks it. Naturally neutral animals such as pigs, roosters, pheasants and unicorns will also return to their neutral state some time after a fail.
Don't forget that deed and tower guards attack hostile animals if summoned, but only if the animal is naturally hostile. For example, guards will attack a [[crocodile]] if summoned, but will ignore a berserk [[unicorn]].

If you are going to invest in taming then be prepared to either wait and hope it will be made easier again, or invest enough time into it to bring it above 50 for it to be of any real use. But even then any 'decent' pet is still extremely hard to tame.

== Notice about animals ==

Certain animals are much easily kept tame than others. Be aware that an upset status dog can remain tame for a day maybe two days. However, a crocodile at upset level or nervous level could un-tame any second since they are very aggressive animals.

== A good guide to raising Taming skill ==

You'll need: 
1x cauldron 
9x meat 
1x pig 
1x pottery '''flask''' and
water

1. Fill the cauldron with the water and put the meat in and cook it till it makes a soup. 
2. Get the pig and if you haven't done so already, walk it off deed. 
3. Get the pottery flask and drag the soup from the cauldron to the flask and tame the pig off deed, you'll only take .25 of the soup into the flask from the cauldron. 4. Tame the pig using the soup in the flask and once its tamed, repeat the process over and over till you have no more soup. A good idea is to add four grains ([[rye]] or others) and one vegetable ([[potato]]es, [[corn]], etc) to the flask before the soup. This makes the taming use 0.005kg of soup, allowing one cauldron of soup to last much longer. 

== Taming Skill Levels ==

*15 Brown Bears
*15 Young Champion Wolves

==Description==
''Cooked meat.''

Meat cooked in a [[campfire]], [[stone oven]] or [[stone forge]]. This can only be made from real [[meat]], not from [[meat filet]]s. Meat becomes cooked meat when it reaches searing hot. Cooked meat decays slower than raw meat and has a higher [[nutrition]]al value.

It can be eaten on it's own or used to [[cooking|cook dishes]].

==Description==
A storage bin made from planks and strengthened with iron ribbons.

Bulk storage bins are useful for two main reasons. First, you can fit more than 100 objects into them. Second, they stop all decay of objects put into them. There are two major downsides: the quality of the items you get out seem to be the average of the items you put in, similar to combining items in your inventory, and 5% of the stored items are lost per 30 days.

==Notes==
* Finished bulk storage bins can not be picked up, but can be pushed, pulled, and turned like forges and ovens.
* On failure, the plank is damaged and the ribbon is destroyed.
* Enchants, renames, and other "special" characteristics on items put in are lost.
* Can be secured like a [[large chest]] with a [[large padlock]].
* Storage bins can be used to separate large piles of combined items (e.g. woodscraps).
* Storage bins can be used to combine leftover bits of logs, assuming they are of the same type.
* The 'Weight' column of the bin is actually the volume, a single bin can hold 16000.
* The model for bins will change when being half full to reflect its contents exceeding 8000 in volume.
* Items can be dragged directly from a container to the storage bin.
* When damaged items are placed into bins, they are instantly repaired at the cost of having their quality reduced by a percent equal to the damage. This reduced quality is used when averaging in a new item's quality into existing items in the bin.
* Volume and Weight are not in the same proportion for different items, so some items store more efficiently in bulk storage bins than others.
* When you remove the last whole item, any remaining material of that type is lost.
