The Cougar is a quick big cat that only fights when attacked. It needs 41.1 Animal Taming.
Overview
- In-game name: a cougar
- Corpse: a cougar corpse
- Behavior: it leaves you alone unless you attack it, then fights in melee (animal AI).
Stats
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| Strength | 56–80 |
| Dexterity | 66–85 |
| Intelligence | 26–50 |
| Hit points | 34–48 |
| Stamina | 66–85 (same as its Dexterity) |
| Mana | 0 |
| Melee damage | 4–10 |
| Armor rating | 16 |
| Fame / Karma | 450 / 0 |
Skills
| Skill | Range |
|---|---|
| Tactics | 45.1–60.0 |
| Wrestling | 45.1–60.0 |
| Magic Resistance | 15.1–30.0 |
Taming
| Requirement | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum Animal Taming | 41.1 (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 | Fish or meat |
- Success chance. For a first-time tame, your chance of success at the end of an attempt rises by about 2% per skill point and reaches 100% at 91.0 skill. 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 41.1 it obeys about 70% of the time, and at about 46.0 it reaches the 99% maximum. Below 41.1 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
Cougars hunt better in groups. When several of your pets from the same pack group (the feline group: cats, cougars, panthers, snow leopards and hell cats) 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 cougar, and they need at least 41.1 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:
- 1 raw ribs
- 10 hides
Location
- The Deceit brazier: double-clicking it from within 2 tiles summons one creature picked at random from a list of about 90, and this is one of them. The brazier warns players who step next to it ("Heed this warning well, and use this brazier at your own peril"). It works once every 15 minutes and places the creature within 5 tiles. The summoned creature is set to attack the closest target, even if it would normally leave you alone, and it stays within 5 tiles of the brazier.
Tips
- Taming starts at 41.1 and always succeeds from 91.0.
- Big cats share a pack group (cougars, panthers, snow leopards and hell cats, plus house cats), so a team earns the pack instinct bonus.
- Carve the corpse for 10 hides.
