@Hoots,
I put over in the Improvements section or Accuracy, pretty much the exact same thing you said.
I know DD was trying to get a handle on it and put in the ability to make a pet a statue and back. The statue could be trade able / sell able.
Now how is your memory on that?
I have mixed feelings about this issue as I enjoy the Tamer far more than any other build.
Pets skill up just like we do, so being able to get your pet skills up is advantageous.
Now then I am so new and low (This shard is heavily tilted towards the established player (not complaining)) that I am using Timber Wolves Black Bears and Forest Ostards and myself to kill MoB's. I have not had to do this kind of stuff since UO came out and the tough part is the Reagents Cost and / or the Bandage Cost (Take this in the context of current UO).
I am sure I can get through it as I have a few times in the past.
The uneasy feeling is using what few slots are available on Wolves, Bears and Forest things vs others with far more desirable pets being stuck without a slot. So I have just been letting everything go when I am done with it. Well except my Ridable Llama
@ Huscarl
Well, my bank account is a lot closer to 0 gp that it is to 10gp.
My SpellBook has about 6 spells (geard towards survival) and my reagents to be less than 2 and all to often 0.
So traveling around a lot is not on the table just yet and I do prefer Serpents Hold AND NuJelm.
Do not take the above as whining or complaining, if anything think of it as an origianl UO start up.
He he, the hot spot last night seemed to be Delucia
