Changes to Taming
Changes to taming
Taming is restricted to the following classes:
Changes:
- Unlike traditional UO, stable masters do not sell mounts. These have to be acquired from a player.
- Tamers cannot tame Dragons.
- Animal Lore/Taming requirements still exist, you should NOT trade more advanced pets (more than mounts/pack animals) with classes that do not have taming.
- The list below is not exhaustive. Standard creatures such as wolves, dire wolves, birds, dogs, cats, bears, etc. are tamable for atmosphere or to help with your roleplay.

- Saddle Bags are limited to 1000 stones
- Pack Animals can carry 2600 stones
- Only ridable animals can support a saddle bag
- Saddlebags are a human only master craft item that requires a tinker
- Horse Barding Armor requires a blacksmith with the required craft plan.
- Your pets do NOT log off with you. They need to be stabled or hitched to a hitching post before you log off or they may go wild.
Bonding your pets:
- Creatures will not bond using the traditional stable command. The player needs to use the 'bond' command to bond a creature at a stable master. They can also be bonded by feeding the creature, which begins the bonding process. After a real week, they can bond with you when fed again, provided you have sufficient taming/lore to bond a creature. (mounts require none)
- Pets go into stable tickets that can be sold on vendors, or traded. Bond status, and things like saddle bags will transfer across a stable ticket.
- If your bonded pet dies, certain classes can assist you in reviving your pet. Alternatively you can pay a fee at a stablemaster.
