Animal Handling

Jacksin125: /* So I heard you want to train more than Rats... How about a cat? (Level 20) */

__NOTOC__
[[File:Animal Handling (skill).jpg|thumb|right|394px|A player and his Panther pet.]]
{{Quote|
The art of taming animals and teaching them to fight alongside you.
}}
'''Animal Handling''' is currently obtained from an altar just outside the graveyard, in the south/west of [[Serbule]] (during alpha, later it will available through a quest).

Animal Handlers spend a ton of time with their '''pets''', raising and training them. Ancillary skills like '''Animal Husbandry''' let them breed pets to get the best genes for fighting (and best colors and appearances!). Animal Handlers have a lot of versatility because they can summon different pets for different problems, but they have to spend a lot of time out of combat raising these pets. (Hopefully this is a fun activity for them, though! It’s aimed at people who think raising and breeding virtual animals sounds fun.)<ref>http://www.eldergame.com/2012/07/a-little-more-about-evil-undead-and-pet-classes/ A little more about evil, undead, and pet classes</ref>

You will need to know how to charm an animal to get started (players can learn how to charm rats on [[Anagoge Island]]). When you have a charmed animal with you, use '''Tame Pet''' to make it a permanent pet.

You can have as many pets as you have stable slots. You can buy more stable slots in town.

If your pet dies, you can either try to resuscitate it in the field using a [[First Aid Kit]], or head back to the stable to revive it for a small fee.

To raise the Animal Handling skill you have to use pet abilities while fighting, just like any other skill.

There's a lot more to it, and a lot more to come.<ref>In-game message as of Sept 2014</ref>

===Pets Stats===
Cats and Rats information is possibly outdated after the [[Game updates/2016-07-23|July 23 Animal Handling patch]]. Data on level 60 pets needed. Gathered from chat (needs tidying up):

* At skill 50 the [[Sewer Rat]] has 279 Armor and 506 Health

;Cats

* At skill 50 [[Old Fangsworth]] has 279 Armor, 906 health, and a Rage Meter of 739. Its attacks deal 57 and 60 slashing damage to an unarmored opponent at about a 2 second reuse, with its rage attack dealing 80 slashing damage.
* At skill 50 the [[Razorslash Panther]] has 200 Armor and 706 Health, with no special abilities.
* At skill 50 the [[Fey Panther Groupie]] has 306 Armor, 1359 Health, and 1294 Rage. It has a Slashing Damage, Heavy Slashing Damage, and Ranged Heal abilities. The heal affects the player, the pet, other pets and the player's group. (Updated)

;Bears
*[[Angry Bear]] is skill level 18 when tamed and has 44 Armor, 60 Health, and 72 Power. Its Special Abilities are Heavy Crushing Damage and Slashing Damage and Self-Heal +40. Its base damage boost is 34. (all values at level 18)

==Stables==
'''Stables''' are accessed by speaking with Stable NPCs. These NPCs let you purchase additional Stable Slots, rename your pets, level up your pets, release unwanted pets, and most importantly, revive them if they fall in battle.

; Stable Locations
: [[Gisli]] in [[Serbule]] Keep
: A "Temporary Stable NPC" in [[Hogan's Keep]]

==So I heard you want to train more than Rats... How about a cat? (Level 20)==
Once you reach Level 20 '''Animal Handling''', you can begin to charm [[Cat]] mobs. Unlike rats, charmed cats only stick around for a few minutes, so tame them quickly!

You can only tame pets at your own Animal Handling skill level or up to five levels higher. For example, [[Grimalkin]] are level 55, so you need level 50 Animal Handling to tame it.

Resting among the [[Fey Panther]] and [[Bear Groupie]]population in Southwest Eltibule, a sacrificial altar may be found which will enable those qualified to unlock the knowledge to Charm & Tame a cat.

The shrine will present you with a riddle, and ask for an item to be sacrificed.

<spoiler show="Click to see the item required for the Cat Shrine">
The answer is "String." This item is sometimes called a ball of string by players and can be obtained through either Textile Creation or purchased from Ukorga in the Kur Mountains.

Every time you attempt to tame a cat, it uses 1 string.
</spoiler>

== Anchor Runes==
Prodigies well versed in '''Animal Handling''' may learn the '''Unnatural Wrath''' abilities.{{Hint| From Gisli in Serbule Keep}} These abilities require an [[Anchor Rune]] to be used.

Shadowy deer formed [[Construct]]s such as the [[Misery Yak]] are the only source of this item at this time.
==Abilities==
{{:Animal Handling Abilities}}

* Note that pet healing skills mean overall health/armor healing, not each. Example: if your pet is missing 5 health and 20 armor, and you use Feed Pet for +15 healing, the pet will recover 5 health and 10 armor.

==Advanced==
Abilities available from Gisli the stable master in Serbule Keep.

==Stables==
'''Stables''' are accessed by speaking with Stable NPCs. These NPCs let you purchase additional Stable Slots, rename your pets, level up your pets, release unwanted pets, and most importantly, revive them if they fall in battle.

; Stable Locations
: [[Gisli]] in [[Serbule]] Keep
: A "Temporary Stable NPC" in [[Hogan's Keep]]

==So I heard you want to train more than Rats... How about a cat? (Level 20)==
Once you reach Level 20 '''Animal Handling''', you can begin to charm [[Cat]] mobs. Unlike rats, charmed cats only stick around for a few minutes, so tame them quickly!

You can only tame pets at your own Animal Handling skill level or up to five levels higher. For example, [[Grimalkin]] are level 55, so you need level 50 Animal Handling to tame it.

Resting among the [[Fey Panther]] and [[Bear Groupie]]population in Southwest Eltibule, a sacrificial altar may be found which will enable those qualified to unlock the knowledge to Charm & Tame a cat.

The shrine will present you with a riddle, and ask for an item to be sacrificed.

<spoiler show="Click to see the item required for the Cat Shrine">
The answer is "String." This item is sometimes called a ball of string by players and can be obtained through either Textile Creation or purchased from Ukorga in the Kur Mountains. A Prodigy who thinks ahead might obtain more than one "Ball of String" for use with the newly acquired skill.
</spoiler>

== Anchor Runes==
Prodigies well versed in '''Animal Handling''' may learn the '''Unnatural Wrath''' abilities.{{Hint| From Gisli in Serbule Keep}} These abilities require an [[Anchor Rune]] to be used.

Shadowy deer formed [[Construct]]s such as the [[Misery Yak]] are the only source of this item at this time.
==Abilities==
{{:Animal Handling Abilities}}

* Note that pet healing skills mean overall health/armor healing, not each. Example: if your pet is missing 5 health and 20 armor, and you use Feed Pet for +15 healing, the pet will recover 5 health and 10 armor.

==Advanced==
Abilities available from Gisli the stable master in Serbule Keep.
