The Bull is a farm animal with surprisingly high Tactics. It only fights when attacked, but it takes 71.1 Animal Taming to tame one.
Overview
- In-game name: a bull
- Corpse: a bull corpse
- Looks: every bull spawns with one of two random bodies (0xE8 or 0xE9), and half of them are dark (hue 0x901).
- Behavior: it leaves you alone unless you attack it, then fights in melee (animal AI).
Stats
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Strength | 77–111 |
| Dexterity | 56–75 |
| Intelligence | 47–75 |
| Hit points | 50–64 |
| Stamina | 56–75 (same as its Dexterity) |
| Mana | 0 |
| Melee damage | 4–9 |
| Armor rating | 28 |
| Fame / Karma | 600 / 0 |
Skills
| Skill | Range |
|---|---|
| Tactics | 67.6–85.0 |
| Wrestling | 40.1–57.5 |
| Magic Resistance | 17.6–25.0 |
Taming
| Requirement | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum Animal Taming | 71.1 (below this you have no chance) |
| Control slots | 1 |
| Maximum owners | 5 (each previous owner makes it harder to tame) |
| Bonding | Yes |
| Rideable | No |
| Favorite food | Grain and hay |
- Success chance. For a first-time tame, your chance of success at the end of an attempt is about 58% at 100.0 skill, and it improves as your skill rises. Every previous owner adds 6 points to the difficulty.
- Don't hurt it. If it takes any damage during your attempt, taming fails with "The animal is too angry to continue taming."
- Stay close. You must stay within 6 tiles of it and keep a clear path to it.
- Obedience. Once tamed, how often it obeys depends on your Animal Taming and Animal Lore (taming counts four times as much as lore). With both at 71.1 it obeys about 70% of the time, and at about 76.0 it reaches the 99% maximum. Below 71.1 the chance drops quickly, to as low as 22%.
- Re-taming. If you've owned this one before, taming it again always succeeds ("That wasn't even challenging.").
- After its first tame, its skills drop to 90% of their wild values, or 86% if it was paralyzed while you tamed it. Its stats don't drop.
Pack instinct
Bulls hunt better in groups. When several of your pets from the same pack group (the bull group) attack the same creature while standing next to it (within 1 tile), each gets extra melee damage:
- 2 pets: +25%
- 3 pets: +50%
- 4 pets: +75%
- 5 or more: +100%
All the pets must have the same owner. The bonus only applies against other creatures, not against players.
Bonding
Only the owner can bond with a bull, and they need at least 71.1 Animal Taming (base skill). Feed it to start bonding, then feed it again after 7 days to finish. When you see "Your pet has bonded with you!", it's done.
Loot
It carries no loot.
Carving
Use a blade on the corpse to get:
- 10 raw ribs
- 15 hides
Tips
- Despite being a farm animal, it needs 71.1 Animal Taming. At 100.0 skill each attempt has about a 58% chance.
- Bulls have their own pack group, so tame several to earn the pack instinct bonus.
- Carve the corpse for 10 raw ribs and 15 hides.
