“The art of taming animals and teaching them to fight alongside you.
Animal Handling is currently obtained from an altar just outside the graveyard, in the south/west of Serbule (during alpha, later it will available through a quest).
Animal Handlers spend a ton of time with their pets, raising and training them. Ancillary skills like Animal Husbandry let them breed pets to get the best genes for fighting (and best colors and appearances!). Animal Handlers have a lot of versatility because they can summon different pets for different problems, but they have to spend a lot of time out of combat raising these pets. (Hopefully this is a fun activity for them, though! It’s aimed at people who think raising and breeding virtual animals sounds fun.)[1]
You will need to know how to charm an animal to get started (most players have learned how to charm rats in the Tutorial Cave). When you have a charmed animal with you, use Tame Pet to make it a permanent pet.
You can have as many pets as you have stable slots. You can buy more stable slots in town.
If your pet dies, you can either try to resuscitate it in the field, or head back to the stable to revive it for a small fee.
There's a lot more to it, and a lot more to come.[2]
Pets Stats
Gathered from chat (needs tidying up):
- At skill 50 Old Fangsworth has 279 Armor, 906 health, and a Rage Meter of 739. Its attacks deal 57 and 60 slashing damage to an unarmored opponent at about a 2 second reuse, with its rage attack dealing 80 slashing damage.
- At skill 50 the Razorslash Panther has 200 Armor and 706 Health
- At skill 50 the Fey Panther Groupie has 200 Armor and 800 Health
- At skill 50 the Giant Rat has 200 Armor and 306 Health (Same with Giant Plains Rat)
- At skill 50 the Sewer Rat has 279 Armor and 506 Health
Stables
Stables are accessed by speaking with Stable NPCs. These NPCs let you purchase additional Stable Slots, rename your pets, level up your pets, release unwanted pets, and most importantly, revive them if they fall in battle.
- Stable Locations
- Gisli in Serbule Keep
- A "Temporary Stable NPC" in Hogan's Keep
So I heard you want to train more than Rats... How about a cat? (Level 20)
Once you reach Level 20 Animal Handling, you can begin to train Cat mobs.
Resting among the Fey Panther and Bear Groupiepopulation in Southwest Eltibule, a sacrificial altar may be found which will enable those qualified to unlock the knowledge to Charm & Tame a cat.
The shrine will present you with a riddle, and ask for an item to be sacrificed.
Anchor Runes
Prodigies well versed in Animal Handling may learn the Unnatural Wrath abilities.Hint These abilities require an Anchor Rune to be used.
Shadowy deer formed Constructs such as the Misery Yak are the only source of this item at this time.
Abilities
- Note that pet healing skills mean overall health/armor healing, not each. Example: if your pet is missing 5 health and 20 armor, and you use Feed Pet for +15 healing, the pet will recover 5 health and 10 armor.
