Skill Name: Taming Skill Type: Life Cost:

Description: |
Overview
Taming allows you to befriend monsters that can help you fight. Taming costs no skill points or soul crystals to learn and as such cannot be learned from the skill menu. Instead, this skill is obtained by dropping a Monster Candy on the ground next to a Slime for it to eat. You can have multiple monsters tamed at the same time and they can each be given a name. Tamed monsters will constantly lose hunger while summoned and will need to be fed or they will die. You can unsummon them from the taming menu at any time while not in combat, which will cause they hunger meter to be paused. They also have a health meter which can be refilled by feeding it, or giving it potions.
Traits
A tamed monster will randomly have one of four traits.
| Trait | Effect |
|---|---|

| Shy | Causes the monster to run away from enemies |
| None | N/A |

Tips and Tricks
- Due to requiring Monster Candy, it's best to pursue this after you already have Alchemy and Cooking.
- The fastest and easiest way to get EXP without using Monster Candy is by having a tamed Pimchy fight another Pimchy, as they will both stay still and hide in their shells taking only 1 damage. This can be done semi-AFK as shown here.
- A high health pet such as Cat Golem or Soulfish can be used level up Medishot quickly as the skill EXP gained is based on the amount healed.
