With the status change to tame you can tame this pet earlier. It can craft arrows for you with fletch and can skin scale when you cannot.

I like the camo, I havn't seen a nifty pet like that in a while, though I would see fletch and skin removed from it.

You should've kept that to yourself.

That would be called bug abuse. A nice way to get deleted when caught.

Good move on reporting this, and good sport too.

As simple as that. A horse with hooves should not be able to skin or fletch.

Again, congratulations, since as you see, the general populace here tend to be secretive keeping such '1337' tictacs and bugs to themselves for own use...

C'mon, people were using scout NPCs all the time. There are even store bought pets that can fletch, camo and even have pathfinding to make travelling even easier.

Although nothing beats old scout tamed pets that could tame other pets like that NPC from old dr00d HQs or the giant mongoose, who gave with old haste a nice amount of 17 attacks/round(6 from tamed scout pet, 8 from tamed tamed pet, 3 from scout). Cannibal probably remembers a beastly log where Cilek and my scout killed a hammer giant in 2 rounds in a spam of pet attacks.

Thanks for the thread. I did see the reports online earlier - just wasn't able to respond directly.

Nothing beats the [REDACTED] you could pull with Dyasha as a sorc back in the day.

Charm Dyasha, have her tame the mongoose, have the mongoose tame another pet + storebought pet. Six attacks from Dyasha, six from the mongoose, eight from the tamed tamed pet, six from the storebought umber hulk/ice elemental. Twenty six attacks + a sorc casting spells behind all that.

I also believe that non sentient NPC should be unable to butcher or skin or cast. Yet its done. And how often have you seen a horse butcher a corpse and not blink once.

Pathfinding? Sure, I can see that. Any other skill that isn't reasonable for the species should be removed though. That's just ... meh. Kudos for reporting it.
