- Anyone can try. Its minimum is below 0, so you can tame it even with no Animal Taming skill.
- 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 31.0 skill (about 38% even at 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 gorilla. 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.
Loot
It carries no loot.
Carving
Use a blade on the corpse to get:
- 1 raw ribs
- 6 hides, doubled to 12 in Felucca
Tips
- Its minimum is −18.9: at 0 skill each attempt has about a 38% chance, and it's certain from 31.0.
- For an animal anyone can tame, its stats are decent: 38–51 hit points and Tactics and Wrestling up to 58.
- It always obeys its owner.
- Carve the corpse for 1 raw ribs and 6 hides (12 in Felucca).
