Taming required to control Nightmare

[Nefalin]

Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone has tried controlling a nightmare with around 80 taming and gm lore. You use to be able to do it on OSI, and it would listen to your commands about 1/3 of the time. I want to use it for spawn control.

Thanks!

Won't transfer until you're at 100 lore and low 90s in taming.

Spawn control of what?
PS- Young dragon you need like 75 taming, and they are stronger than mares
Young dragons can kill basically anything except maybe ancient wyrm, balron para and a few of the really high end stuff. Plus, they come in lots of colors instead of just boring black.

Just for the record, young stats
550hp
500str
100sta
440int
keep in mind thats 440 mana vs 122


and an average nightmare

524hp
508str
102stamina
122 int



uhh ya and the fire breathe seems to hit more as well. So at 75 taming you can have a pair of trained youngs that are stronger than nightmares at gm.to tame one just head over to dragon island, destard is a bit of a mess to tame in comparison. hope that helps

I had a really beautiful pair that were so well trained.after I was done with them I gave my babes to a new tamer on the server. After he was done he gave them to a noon too. Not sure after that.

Great recommendation.

Mares are super handy for taming new pets since you can mount them instantly when the mob get low on hps

Do they have to go out of war mode first?

No

Is the chance of successfully taming a mob higher when its health is low, or is it easier only because the mob is running instead of attacking you?

It is so firebreath doesn't hurt so bad. Firebreath is based on current hps.

Plus you use up their mana so they don't cast as much

Thanks. By the way, I heard that paralyze taming reduces the pet's stats by 4%, is that true?

Several of the higher end mobs have health dependent attacks (fire breath) as well as at lower HP they tend to walk a little slower.

Reduces skills I believe

Just to clarify: it reduces skills only (i.e. no stat loss)?
