Anyone try to charm the other green name creatures? - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

=HT=Ingram · Feb 22, 2005, 04:49 AM // 04:49

Things I tried to charm:
Wolf - successful
Snow Wolf - successful
Stalkers -successful
Lynx - successful (Playfull Lynx is a leveled up version I think level 12)
warthog -successful

Bunny - no
Spider - no
Bear - no (I thought that should have worked)
Bull - No
Prize Pigs - no
Giant Worms - no
Shark - no (lol then again... how?... NVM)
Hellhound - Hell no, but would have been funny to have...
Giant Lightning Lizards - No (always around beaches... to powerfull anyways)

Edit: Moa Bird - Someone said that was successful, but didnt think of it. lol

I noticed mounted enimies in some of the far western areas.. so maybe horses can be charmed. Mount / dismount button. Like when carrying the Staff of Orr ??? Might be interesting... Have a couple of unique attacks you can do while mounted but thats all.. For regular fighting you have to dismount.

I thought wolf broke charms as well, how did you charm it and not a bear?

Bgnome · Feb 22, 2005, 02:45 PM // 14:45

no mounts.

wolves do use break charm but not as often as bears, hence it would be easier to charm one.

Greentongue · Feb 22, 2005, 06:50 PM // 18:50

Is that "break charm" a signet or might you drain their energy to prevent it from being used?

Vermilion Okeanos · Feb 22, 2005, 07:47 PM // 19:47

The skill icon doesnt look like a signet... but it might cost 0 energy regardless... or the bear actually have 99999999999999999 energy... hopfully not but whatever... maybe they will put those bears in the new area after sanctum cay.

Bgnome · Feb 22, 2005, 08:04 PM // 20:04

it is a creature skill -- there is a specific icon for creature-only skills. it looks kinda like a fiery imp face on a greyish background. energy-wise, he seemed to be able to use it quickly and as often as i used charm animal, so i am certain that there is little to no casting time/recharge time on his skill but energy has got to be less than 10.
the hp/energy pool equation is the same for all creatures so they have the exact same amount of energy as a level 3 player would.

bears are charmable, it just takes two people, the right timing and a LOT of work. mine took me about half an hour to charm, they can take longer though

Zebideedee · Apr 02, 2008, 12:29 AM // 00:29

I seen a 'Swarm of bees' I was like woot, fought my way to where the bee's hang out (after changing to ranger secondary), and got "This creature is not an animal" Doh!

Ps. They stung me anyway

kerpall · Apr 02, 2008, 01:11 AM // 01:11

hmm, this will sound stupid, but...
Can you charm treasures found with Light of Deldrimor? Because you can "talk to them" lol xD .

Bigger Redd · Apr 02, 2008, 08:11 AM // 08:11

I was heart broken when I couldn't charm the Swarm of Bee's in pre (Poor Tenant's quest). How I wish i could carry that honeycomb forever!

Wow, old thread ressurrection ftw!

Way to resurrect a 3+ year old thread.
How do people find these things.

Yes, you can later in Prophecies and with a small bug/glitch in Pre Ascalon. But bears... they're attack is slower than other beasts. They have more armor though.

Search is your friend, perhaps?

EmptySkull · Apr 02, 2008, 03:37 PM // 15:37

Well I will continue the resurrection.
Here is a list of charmable animals.

Well one doesn't usualy use Search for the purpose of finding things to reply to. They use it to find answers, not to give answers.

tommarrow · Apr 02, 2008, 04:51 PM // 16:51

If you scroll to the bottom of the page of any thread you will see a section for similar threads. Most of these other threads are years old since guru doesn't delete anything.

By looking at the bottom of this thread three of them are pretty old.

Ku Ku · Apr 02, 2008, 06:10 PM // 18:10

Seriously :P did no one else actually read this thread before they responded XD they were talking about pre-searing in an APLHA weekend stage! the thread dates back to 2005. Nice to see a little piece of history - are these members still playing i wonder :P?

Snograt · Apr 02, 2008, 06:31 PM // 18:31

Yeah, I agree with Tommarrow; it's that "similar threads" thing at the bottom. Gets random browsers interested and they don't think to check the date.

Useful for other purposes, but does lead to an increase in thread necromancy
