*sigh* I have the tame spell but it isn't working?

I don't understand what I am doing wrong: First I've been clicking on beasts and making sure it has a "relatively easy to tame" icon next to the hp bar. Then I attack them without my pet so it doesn't kill it. Then I make sure their life bar is down to this __ and let them kick the **** out of me while I just stand there wacking the tame spell option repeatedly but it doesn't work (it's faded-like so I can't click it)! The animals are also lower levels then me - some by like 5 and some by like 1 - but are lower regardless.

What am I doing wrong? I feel like I've had it!

    there's only a few reasons a skill would be greyed out like that, but they're all pretty obvious, i'm afraid.

    do you have enough mana to cast the skill?
    do you have the monster targeted at the time?
    do you have a magical weapon equipped?
    are you in human form, or fox? (i can't remember if tame pet needs human or works in both. try each way.)

    One more thing, double check if the monster is tameable? :P

    I agree with the above posters. Something else that I will add is that, I'm unsure of how many pets you have already tamed, but if your pet bag is at its maximum current capacity, you won't be able to tame another pet until one is either released, or you increase your capacity. This may not be what your problem is, but I hope it helps nonetheless. Hope the issue gets resolved for you.

    Is your inventory full? The Tame Spell gets grayed out if it is.
