I have my pet taming skill at lvl 3 and no matter what I do the pet taming skill will not tame any creature even lvl 1. I would like to know what is wrong with my character or if it is a bug. b:sad

    First, are the creatures you're trying to tame tameable? Are you getting the messaged "resist!" or "failed!"? If it's the first, it isn't tameable; if it's the second, it sounds like you've got some bad luck. You can tell what can and can't be tamed based on a little yellow/green/red face that will appear near the mob's name - yellow means it's possible but difficult, green means it's easy to tame, and red means you can't tame it yet.

    I am only taming mob's with the green pet symbol. And yes it always says "resisted" or "failed." I am a lvl 30 I should be able to tame a easily tamable low lvl mob. This is not my first venom, my other character before PW became international worked just find. I know how to set up my character. It just does not make any sense, ya know?

    You should try getting the mob's HP lower first, see how that works out. I'm not sure if it's really necessary to do on a mob that's significantly lower than you, but it's helpful for mobs around your level. If you've done that and still no luck, well.. I dunno o.o

    You do still need to lower the mob's health before taming. I tried taming without hitting the mob at around level...40ish, about 10-15 times, because I wanted to try a varicose scorp. It kept failing though :(. I ended up having to take off all my equipment just to punch it once, 'cause anything else would kill it b:chuckle.
