The Sheep is a peaceful farm animal that you can shear for wool. It's easy to tame and always obeys.
Overview
- In-game name: a sheep
- Corpse: a sheep corpse
- Looks: a sheep with its fleece uses body 0xCF. After it's shorn it switches to the shorn body (0xDF) until its wool grows back.
- Behavior: it leaves you alone unless you attack it, then fights in melee (animal AI).

Taming
| Requirement | Value |
|---|---|
| Minimum Animal Taming | 11.1 (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 | Fruits and vegetables or grain and hay |
- 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 61.0 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, its taming requirement is 29.1 or lower, so it always obeys its owner.
- 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.
Bonding
Only the owner can bond with a sheep. Its taming requirement is 29.1 or lower, so there's no Animal Taming requirement to bond. 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.
Shearing
Use a blade on a living sheep to shear it.
- You get 1 wool, or 2 in Felucca.
- Its wool grows back after 3 hours. Until then it looks shorn and can't be sheared again.
- The wool goes straight into your backpack. Shearing doesn't hurt the sheep, and it works on wild or tamed sheep.
- If it was shorn recently you'll see "This sheep is not yet ready to be shorn."
Loot
It carries no loot.
Carving
Use a blade on the corpse to get:
- 3 raw legs of lamb
- 3 tainted wool if it still has its fleece, doubled to 6 in Felucca. A sheep that was shorn recently has none. Tainted wool spins into only 1 ball of yarn instead of the usual 3.
Tips
- Taming starts at 11.1 and always succeeds from 61.0.
- Shear it rather than kill it: it regrows wool every 3 hours.
- Wool carved from a corpse is tainted wool, which spins into only 1 ball of yarn instead of 3.
- Carve the corpse for 3 raw legs of lamb.
