so has anyone figured out how to charm a dire crocidile yet

as the title thread stats, has anyone figured it out yet, barely reach the edge of my compass and they get charmed. tried for 15 mins and no luck yet.

forget croc

u get to cap lion, tigress, rat ahead

yeah i know of them, but dont want them

I think u cannot pet the dire crocodiles cause they r the hakets pet's..... Well but it's just me saying so... U can get, like indian said: lion, lioness, rat, that bird :S and i've seen an hiena aswell... :P

You can have a crocodile at the south of Istan, in the south west of the explorable area near the third mission

who doesnt want a rat?!

thx maximelene, but that's only a crocodile not a dire crocodile :P (which is the same thing but superior lvl, when it reaches lvl 15?! become dire aswell (i Think))

Eh, none of you guys knows what the original guy posted is talking about?

You see, in Factions, you can tame a Dire Tiger near the mobs, if you try hard enough. They are usually charmed by a monster near by, but if you are lucky, you can actually charm them before they are turned pets.
manitoba1073 is wondering if there's a way to get to the Dire Crocs before the Heckets charm them.

I'm not sure of the name of the spot but its on the far east of the Estate near that fort, if you approach from the north side the agro seems a little slower. I think thats was it, sorry if this isn't much help, I was trying this about a week ago.

there are no dire crocs, only elder that ive seen besides the level 5's

I know one person that got one so far, speed buffs are your friend. Just rezone until there's enough seperation.

I was there yesterday and saw three available, easily, and didn't have charm animal equipped.

I trained my croc to be dire, is really isn't hard

In Factions a friend of mine and I managed to tame a dire tiger that was previously some yeti's pet. We just killed pet's owner and then he tried to tame the animal...charm animal said invalid target at first but we found out that if we lower the animal's hp somehow he was able to charm it. Don't ask me how it works but we did it...twice. Location: Pongmei Valley, Yetis and their Dire Tigers.

Or if you're fast enough and able to survive for 10 seconds, just target the animal from distance, activate charm animal skill and use your fastest running stance to get the aggro hoping you'll be faster then the others...this actually works in Pongmei Valley too, it just takes few tries
