i always wondered...does RB(clerics skill red bubble speeds channeling 20%) channeling gear and windrage all stack up?
if so...it would be possible to have like...instant tame then huh? b:chuckle
but yea if any1 can get back to me on that i would greatly appreciate it cuz my gf wants a kowlin and some veno there always catches it like within 2 seconds b:surrender
atleast i dont let her give up on that b:victory

    Faster taming isn't going to be a great advantage because you're still limited by cooldown time. You also have no idea how fast that mob's HP is going to go down with multiple people attacking it.
    Be kind: Help the GMs to depopulate the servers.

    RB should stack but it's not a big advantage, you can already use Relentless Courage for an 18% channeling boost if you level a genie up. Windrage I'm not sure on, I was under the impression it halved your current speed rather than added 50% channeling. I say this since I do see a speed difference with Relentless Courage going that isn't simply being eyeballed (6 vs 5 nukes during spark for example, or a real nice healing boost), but I don't notice it all that much during tame. RC+Channeling puts me at 38% channeling (21 worn, 17 genie), and if Windrage boosted me to 88% it would be very obvious, however it only seems to boost me to 69% which isn't as obvious, though it's still enough to guarantee I get the first shot at taming pretty much every time.

    And tame will never be instant, you still have a 1 sec cast time after the 6 (or less) channel time even with 100% channeling.

    You sure if wasnt because all the other venos failed and she got it last?
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    There's a rumor of a high-level apothecary item that can only be manufactured if your faction owns a territory. Supposedly it eliminates the channeling duration entirely. Since neither I nor my faction have any interest in TW, I can't verify or deny this. But perhaps someone in a territory-holding faction can.

    Not a rumour... anyone in a faction owning archosaur or dribbling spring can make it, and it's basically the same as a wizard's essential sutra.
    HT clerics at their finest:

    hari: can you do mdef debuffs? makes the fight go faster
    naughty_x: waste, I do more damage without them
    hari: ...you do more damage in 2 seconds than reducing mdef by 35% for 4 casters does in 20 seconds?
    naughty_x: is waste, i do more damage

    hari: 3-3 BH goes a lot faster with a sin
    naughty_x: no, only a difference of like 3 minutes
    hari: ...we've been in here a lot longer than 3 minutes already
    naughty_x: your opinion
