== Description ==  '''Taming''' is a [[skill]] used to make an [[animalCDB|Main]] 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:Category:Skills|Skills]]/Priestess and a follower of [[Magranon]] or [[LibilaNature]]. * 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.  50 taming skill gives the [[title]] "Animal Trainer".'''{{PAGENAME}}'''

You can use tame an animal by activating an [[item]] that it will eat, then right-click the animal will [[eat]]and choose '''Tame'''. * For some animals its the item is [[seeds]], for others its it is [[meat]]/or [[fish]].** For information on what animals eat, check the [[:Category:Bestiary|creature's Wurmpedia page]].* The [[QL]] of the taming item speeds up the taming action, for about 1 second per 20 QL.* Note: Food eaten while taming does go towards their hunger level.* You can only have one pet at a time; so if you have a pet and tame another, your first pet will become untamed. ** Pets that become untamed will return to their normal hostile or non-hostile stance; ie. if the animal is normally hostile then it will begin attacking guards and players.

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 ==Notes==* The animal being tamed can go aggressive and attack you if you fail the taming action 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 Such critical failures become much less frequent with as high as 50 increased tamingskill. You are advised * Diseased horses seem to take extreme caution when attempting be able to tame something, preferably by fencing the animal be tamed with much less-than-normal risk of going aggressive in and taking refuge outside the gate if the animal goes berserk on youprocess. * If the animal you want to stop attacking a pet that has at least a single level of loyalty left after going gone aggressive from a failed taming, it will revert to its tamed status again after move a whilefew tiles away, provided nobody attacks it. Naturally neutral animals such as pigs, roosters, pheasants right-click on ground and unicorns will also return to their neutral state some time after a failchoose No target (if you have "Display 'no target' in menus" option checked in Settings).Also, don't forget that deed and tower guards automatically attack hostile * Only animals. If you are going to invest in taming then can be prepared tamed; to either wait and hope it will be made easier againgain control over [[monster]]s, or invest enough time into it to bring it above 50 for it you need to be a [[priest]]/priestess and a follower of any real use[[Magranon]] or [[Libila]]. But even then any 'decent' pet is still extremely hard For more information on this, refer to tame[[Dominate]], [[Rebirth]]. == Notice about animals == Certain animals are much easily kept tame than others.
