Abso-freakin-lutely.
Taming is the only skill that I would feel the urge to use an advanced token for. It's such a long and tedious skill to gain in. My first tamer, i did the slow way, and while I admit to kindof enjoying the medative qualities of walking around moonglow and slowly taming, it's nothing I wish to repeat. I imagine that since you've been playing for years, you can understand the feeling.
The token won't get you all the way, but it will give you a fantastic head start, and with a few jewels, you can jump right into having a few Bake Kitsunes on day one.
