Pet Abilities And Move Order

[Taka]

Hi, I am trying to train a fire beetle to 5 slot.
I have the following question:
How many Area Effect Abilities, Special Move, Special Abilities and Magical Abilities can I add?
Can I have 1 of each and in what order?
Example:
Explosive Goo , Armor Ignore, Mortal Strike, Poisoning and Rune Corruption in that order?
Or
Armor Ignore, Angry Fire, Rune Corruption and Poisoning in that order?

Abit lost on what to add first and dun want to make an mistake.
Anyone can advise?

 

[Pawain]

Goo, AI, Rune Corruption, then magic.

A giant Beetle cant get an area special anymore. Try mortal on that.

 

[Taka]

how about Fire Beetle?
I started adding Armor Ignore, Planning to add mortal strike second then follow by Rune Corruption then Magic (which is posioning)
But I saw this which make me confuse as it stated Rune Corruption must be last?


So Rune Corruption first Or Magical Abilities first?

 

[Pawain]

Oh no. Add Goo, AI , Rune corruption. In that order. Then poison if you want. I dont use on mine.

 

[Taka]

ahh.. I see what happen.. good evening Taka, pleasure to meet you... The site must of read my report on the sealing bug... that is linked to RC.... where as if you add it, it removes the option for aoe moves, special moves, and magical moves...and some get magicial moves and schools mixed up... its an easy mistake to make.. it removes the option for things in the magical moves list.. but not the option for magicail schools like poison.... sadly there is another bug.. where if you add a magicail school like poison, magery, bush, etc.. it counts it as your three move limit.. so you always want to add your moves first.. then the school of magic last... or it will remove the option of an extra move from said pet..I believe that is what its saying.... I hope this helped.. should ya have anymore questions feel free to post or message me anytime.. =^-^=.

The Goo, AI and rune corruption. I figured that was enough for the fire beetle.

For a Giant Beetle: AI , rune corruption, poison.

I wasnt impressed with poison on the beetle.

Why goo especially for Fire Beetle? Does it have more strength coming from Fire Beetle? Thanbks..

Beetles have good mana regen. You dont get area abilities on most pets, so I use it on the ones that can get them.

Plus Goo is fire damage. The energy damage is a misprint. I wanted an all fire pet.

We have a problem with that info.

Taming Notes: If you plan to train your beetle in Rune Corruption, make sure to train that LAST. Once Rune Corruption is trained, you will not be able to add any other special moves (such as Armor Ignore).

Thats is correct if you were not planning on choosing a magic skill. But, if you want a magic skill also Choose the magic afterwards!!!!

It is telling you that if you choose rune corruption first, you will not be able to choose a special move like AI. in this case, "last" means after you have chosen a special move.

@BrianFreud Please reword that phrase. Its on the Fire beetle page.

If you want to put GOO, AI, Rune Corruption, and a Magic on this pet. You have to do it in that order. If you try to put RC on last, and put a magic ability on the pet before RC, RC will not be a choice.

Work from the bottom up. Magic choices are last on most pets. You only choose a magic first if you want to get rid of another magic on a few pets.

Hello Donavon, I see what you mean. Was so confusing at one moment. I did a mistake early by adding Rune Corruption first and I could not have any special move. That why I went to retame a Fire beetle and train. This time when it trained I want to be very sure that why I asked. Thank you for your kind explanations and time.

I'm headed to work, but anyone can edit the wiki; if you think it can be worded better, please feel free!

I appreciate this very much! This is a great idea to put similar damages in same pet so you can comparmentalize them for specific tasks, in the case of fire beetle fire damage all the way and also AI + RC buffs to further boos the damage! So for an enemy that is susceptible to fire the combo will be much more effective, esp since fire beetle is 100% fire. Very nice job! Thanks for posting!

that's what pisses me off about UO. ya have to do more research than getting a 4 year college degree.... I just wasted time training beetle expecting to be able to put an AOE on him but just read here that you can't
