Re: Taming control question

On UOSA, once you get to "very happy", you have about a 1 in 5 chance of commanding it successfully back up to extremely and wonderfully. The other 4 out of 5 times, you're going down fast. I'm not sure I understand this. What taming level is this assuming? If you're at or above the tamin...

Re: New recruit

Those hours are fine; I can usually get on late at night most days, even before summer. I'll try to get in touch with you on the guild's IRC chat tonight.

Re: Taming control question

Thank you, Mike, that's very informative. And it pretty much confirms that it's more or less like what I remember: I have a reasonable shot of controlling the animal at a lower taming level (with GM lore) if it's kept very well-fed and don't try too many commands in a row if it keeps disobeying (whi...

A friend of mine introduced me to this and I couldn't resist. I wanted to recreate my old tamer/mage, but I have a question. I'm a bit iffy ...
