Thread: You can't tame that bug is still around!
I experienced this bug a few times since Publish 21. In some cases there were babies spawned from mission (named)lairs (although this is no longer supposed to happen) and in others I received the you cannot tame this message from wild lairs or static spawns. Funnily enough on one lair that had 2 babies showing, I tamed one baby and was told thatI could not tame the other baby.
As always /bug 'ged in game.
Hey guys,
I'm not having the buggy kind of taming problem, but are Taming Viscious BE tissues mandatory now for level 50+ ? ? Even for MCH.
I've failed like 15 times on a (baby) mature reptillian flyer (CL69). Wondering if its impossible without the tissues or if Im just having bad luck.

If those things you tried don't fix it, you need to log out for around 20 minutes to completely unload your character from the server.
Here's the hilarious thing about this.
I logged out completely (didn't wait 20 minutes) and could not tame a falumpaset (baby) I came across. But, when I headed back to home, I came across a fambaa (baby) and had no problem taming it.
This has to do with crossing server boundaries, I'm convinced of that. It's another form of a bug that has been around since launch that did things like cause people to become invisible, cause armor stats to shift, and, of course, cause pets to poof backto the datapad.

I don't know if it's impossible.
But I do know this.
Anything vicious level 50 or above, I have both the taming hat (+25 taming,/+25 vicious)on AND I eat some almond-kwevvu munchies before I attempt the tame.
And those two measures by no means guarantee success. Taming has become a lot more dicey since pub 21.
I strongly advise that you ALSO carry some good (+90 minimum reuse, ignore the action stat) parawan nutricake for burst running away from crit fail tame aggro babies and the angry family members.
Got my +25/+25 Sunguard. Now Im shopping for some Almond Crunch'a'Munch. Then I will try again.
As far as aggro goes tho...
I don't find taming even half as fun since the CU. I am CL80 and the max level we can tame is 70, so the level mitigation alone makes it no problem when I get aggro.. In fact,now I just ride right up on my bike now vs. crawling in prone position from 60 meters out, with several MS checks, praying for no aggro like I did pre-CU.
Maybe I should take up Bio-Engineering again for some DNA sampling..that was practically an extreme sport IMO.
The bug is still around but there is a solution to it. I created the following tame macro and I eventually beat the system.
Name: Tame
/tame
/macro tame
If you are not in combat, eventually the tame will tick.
