First let me explain that I have never attempted taming, so I am really clueless to this whole aspect of the game. I have seen some posts about stable slots and how many one can have. What is the max # of stable slots a character can achieve? How does one go about getting them? I believe it has something to do with your taming skills, but I don't know the exact formula. ALSO: let's say I develope whatever is neccessary to gain the max stable slots, and fill them up. Then suppose I stone off those taming skills to temporarily become a thief, mage, whatever. What would then happen to those max stable slots, and the critters that I filled them up with? Do they all [or a portion of them] go bye-bye? As I said this is all new to me, so before I jump in I'd like to know what the heck I'm doing. Thanks in advance for your thoughts & insight:]
