The Frenzied Ostard is an aggressive riding lizard that attacks on sight. It needs 77.1 Animal Taming, fights well, and can run farther than a horse.
Overview
- In-game name: a frenzied ostard
- Corpse: an ostard corpse
- Looks: every frenzied ostard spawns in a random color from the human hair color range.
- Behavior: it attacks the nearest target it sees and fights in melee.
- Corpse note: its corpse is named an ostard corpse.

Skills

| Tactics | 79.3–94.0 |
| Wrestling | 79.3–94.0 |
| Magic Resistance | 75.1–80.0 |
Taming
| Requirement | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum Animal Taming | 77.1 (below this you have no chance) |
| Control slots | 1 |
| Maximum owners | 5 (each previous owner makes it harder to tame) |
| Bonding | Yes |
| Rideable | Yes |
| Favorite food | Meat, fish, eggs or fruits and vegetables |
- Success chance. For a first-time tame, your chance of success at the end of an attempt is about 46% 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 77.1 it obeys about 70% of the time, and at about 82.0 it reaches the 99% maximum. Below 77.1 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
Frenzied ostards hunt better in groups. When several of your pets from the same pack group (the ostard group: desert, forest and frenzied ostards) 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 frenzied ostard, and they need at least 77.1 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.
Riding
Double-click your tamed frenzied ostard to ride it. It can run 5,120 steps before it gets too tired to move, compared with 3,840 for a horse. Only running counts (walking doesn't tire it unless you're overloaded), and it recovers 1 step per second while it isn't running.
Loot
It carries no loot.
Carving
Use a blade on the corpse to get:
- 3 raw ribs
Tips
- It attacks on sight, so be ready to fight while you tame.
- At 100.0 skill each attempt has about a 46% chance.
- Its Tactics and Wrestling reach 94, far above other ostards, and it can run 5,120 steps.
- Ostards share a pack group for the pack instinct bonus.
- It eats almost anything: meat, fish, eggs, fruits and vegetables.
