Using taming to skill up melee/tactics

[cykik]

Hello, Im new to the shard but Im a big fan of it. Here is a tip Ive come across, using a tamer to skill up melee/tactics on another dexxer. For those who cant afford a house to spar in like myself.


I tame a ton of timber wolves in the moonglow area (there are a ton of them south of the portal). Once I have a good bit of them I transfer them to my dexxer (timber wolves require 0 taming to control) who is equiped with a weak weapon. My case I used a wand since Im skilling up maces. I included the macro to use in the screenshot. The wolves do not fight back since I "all stay".

(screenshot is too big to post in the forums apparently)

you are correct as to the number of Timber wolves south of the moonglow portal

however you don't need a tamer to corral them up for you just create a macro to:

Target Nearest Grey
Attack last Target

you can stand in one place for quite a while and not have to move

I just GM'd Mace there in about 36 hours of game time
