Rare livestock taming
Rope taming has its own chances and failure bonus. Companion whistle taming and Befriend use separate rules.
| Mode | Adventure rope taming. The visible Tame action is not offered in Wilds. |
|---|---|
| Base chance | 20% |
| Earlier failures | Each earlier failed attempt on this same animal adds 7 percentage points, up to 50 extra points. The roll is capped at 100%. |
| Optional bait | Automatically offers the first eligible bait in the pack, then checks the quick bar if none was found. Adds 15 percentage points. Bait is optional and is spent whether the attempt succeeds or fails. |
| First attempt with bait | 35% |
| Maximum without bait | 70% |
| Maximum with bait | 85% |
| Rope and reach | Stand alongside the animal, including diagonals, right-click it and choose Tame. Each attempt spends one unprotected Taming Rope from your pack. Simply walking into it does not throw the rope. |
| Failed attempt | The animal flees, keeps its failure bonus and refuses another rope attempt for 8 turns. Wait and approach it again. |
| Successful attempt | Becomes owned livestock in Follow mode. Starts at full species health with 30 happiness, unfed. Milk quality is calculated from happiness, feed and species bonuses as the world updates. Milk, wool, silk and egg timers are set from its species. A released animal keeps its proper name and look when caught again. |
| Scope | This rule does not make every livestock species a normal wild encounter. Some are acquired by Befriend or other routes. Already owned livestock and peaceful NPCs are not rope targets. |
