Updating the wiki, need your help!

[BrianFreud]

I've made multiple upgrades to the wiki in the past few weeks to improve the Hunter's Guide. Most recently, I'm working on documenting the abilities/moves that can be trained on tameable mobs.

I'm interested in those abilities and moves which are initially available, not any that also might be unlocked if, for example, you change out Slashing for Poisoning on a mob that starts with the Slashing ability.

I'm slowly working through the list, but if anyone is able to help with a list of the abilities/moves that can be trained for any of these remaining mobs, please post it, and I'll get it added to the wiki.

An example; frost spider can be trained in:

And here it is, once I'm done with that info:

Side note, if anyone has a list of mobs that need subduing before they can be tamed, that too would be quite helpful.

Mobs still needing a list of trainable abilities/moves:

• Chicken
• Clockwork Leather Wolf
• Corrosive Slime
• Crow
• Dark Steed
• Dragon Turtle Hatchling
• Drake
• Frost Dragon
• Frost Drake
• Lasher
• Paralithode
• Phoenix
• Sakkhran Bird Of Prey
• Savage Ridgeback
• Shadow Wyrm
• Silver Steed
• Stygian Drake
• Tropical Bird
• Unicorn
• Vollem
• War Horse
• War Ostard
• Windrunner
  
  
• Rune Beetle - still need special abilities, special moves, area effect abilities
• Saurosaurus - still need special abilities, special moves, area effect abilities
• Cold Drake - still need area effect abilities

Edit:
Updated the list to remove those mobs which now have info. Thanks Jibbed, Tabby Kapak, God Compress, Pawain, MalagAste, and Rhafiki.

 

[MalagAste]

Don't think you can train Battle Chickens... so you can take that off the list

 

[Tabby Kapak]

Silver Steeds are extinct, no? So maybe that can also be crossed out? Anyway, hoping to get to help on this soon. (What is listed on TC does count right?)

 

[BrianFreud]

Yep, TC lores/data works. Just make sure any lores anyone submits are for untamed mobs. (Windrunner, Lasher, Imprisoned Dog, Pack Horse, and any other mobs that can't be obtained except for a tame version, those a tame pet's lore is fine.)

This is a rough report I've been working on; BrianFreud/11 - Stratics Community Wiki | Stratics Community Forums . It's a summary of tameables' info. Anything else that'd be handy to have on there, let me know. (It's also a good way to see any missing/unknown info that the wiki needs).

 

[Tabby Kapak]

Apologies it is not entirely clear, we should have included the name of the creature in every image. But this took a while already so didn't have the energy to add it to every image. It is also the first time we add pictures like this so we hope all goes well. And we hope it is of use to you Brian.

From top to bottom:

Ok I can't help but comment.... I'm blown away not only do you use the ridiculous Diablo style health and mana things... but you keep that silly Aura on as well!?!?!?

And the map facet information... I'm... um... hum... Shocked.

Don't get me wrong I love the EC with Pinco's... but I could never play like that.

I cant help but respond..... Whats my personal UI setup got to do with this thread? Especially given how many games use the diablo style health and mana orbs these days, when you have been away from the game for many years, small familiarities help make readjusting to all the changes easier.

Dont get me wrong, i love the UO community... but posts like this can make people not want to contribute.

I just have never seen anyone actually use them... found it strange... that's all.... didn't think honestly that anyone did use them. not meant as a negative... just was shocked to see it in use.

Infact most people I know beg me to tell them how to turn that stuff off...

 

[BrianFreud]

Many thanks Jibbed and @Tabby Kapak I've been out of town the past week, so I just saw this. I'll start editing that all in tonight after work.

(Btw, if anyone would rather just directly edit info into the wiki, rather than mess with screenshots and such, feel free to do so - just go to that mob's page in the wiki and click on either "add animal lore report" or "edit" up top to access the 2 mob editors. )

Dark Steeds and Silver Steeds do not exsist... sorry to say be hard to lore something fictitious..

True enough, though always possible there's one hiding in a stable somewhere. Otherwise, they've said they might be bringing some extinct mobs back for the 20th; always a possibility they include those 2.

One can hope right??? I think there is a silver steed in the zoo from time to time but not real sure.

I think you're right; I wonder if it's loreable...

 

[BrianFreud]

The Atlantic Moonglow zoo currently has a silver steed, but I don't have a tamer there. Anyone have a tamer on Atlantic who could lore that beast?
