This is just a small part of my main guide, you can find the main guide, which is far bigger at my signature

20 Taming

You will need a whip for it and nutrio bars (refining product of fruit and sweet stuff) and should drag “attempt tame” at a button at your keyboard.

At the moment just daikibas, exasaurs and snablesnots can be tamed,
what can be seen at the second bar they have above their health bar.

If you are equipped and found the animal you want as your pet you have to attack it with your whip.
Be sure it has yellow bar above its health bar before attacking, the animals “spirit”.

A red bar will appear if you hit such an animal with a whip, the “respect”.

Then you should lead the creature somewhere were you are alone with it, else surrounding mobs could disturb you, or other players might shoot at it.
If you found a nice place then you hit it again with your whip.

You should also drag the health bar of the mob to your screen, since that bar is more accurate as the bar above his name.

The spirit bar will decrease, indicating that you are breaking the will of the animal.
The respect bar will increase.
If you are hit by the animal the respect bar will decrease again.
You have to bring your target to the following:
Very low spirit, very low health (close to death) and full respect, to start a taming attempt.

The animal has to be selected for this, click (or press if you have it a key)

The results can be a failure

or a success

A tame animal will have 3 bars

The green one is the trust, and will be necessary if you want to skill with your pet to increase your skill and the pets level (current max level is 3). You can rise it with an animal brush.
The blue one shows you when the ped needs food.
To feed your pet you will need nutrio bars,open your inventory
under food you should find the nutrios
drag them from the inventory, to your pet, drop them at your pet
the pet should make a feeding gesture, and the bar will be increased
Third is the health bar.

Your pet gains experience when it performs task you give them, greet and impress.
This will decrease the food bar.
Task for your pets can be found in the action library, moving and stop won’t give experience.
At level one your pet can just greet, at level 2 impress, at level 3 it can follow you (easier than the move to command) and you can give it a name (see upper picture, the name is Hope).

If you want to log off, go to a stable master with your pet, and click the stable command (action library).

You will get a deed of your pet.

and a message when your pets needs food again and that you can doubleclick at the item to get your pet again.

Don’t log off or run away from your pet while it stands in the wilderness, this will decrease trust, food and experience, so you really should take it to a stable if you don’t want it around at the moment.

Pets can't attack at the moment, and are mainly there to skill, show off, and to look at (kinda cute).

Skills and attributes you can get are
Animal Taming (this is a hidden skill and will be unlocked), Animal Lore Zoology, Perception, Dexterity, Courage, Alertness
Agility, Itelligence
