Thread: Question about pet abilites and learning them and such

Just want to clarify something.


Last night I tamed a Graul Mauler with L2 Eye Gouge. I scrolled down while attempting to train it and saw it listed. I thought these specials showed up AFTER you trained it a while.


If I was mistaken, and the special shows up at the tame, then it's safe to say, after every tame, if a special doesn't show up, I should just release the pet and continue on taming and fighting with pets with abilities so that I can learn them. Correct?


Sorry for the question, I know I'm a vet, but geez, this is gettinga little off the hook for me.

Any trained pet with an innate skill can use that skill without having to be taught. If however you wnt to teach that skill to another pet you will need to learn it first.

Yes.



Anakin: Master, I think my lightsaber is getting dull. Its not doing nearly as much damage as it used to.
Obi-Wan: O.k. when we're done showing the youglings around the temple, we'll stop by the bazaar and you can buy a new crystal. I hope you've got a couple million credits saved up for this.
Anakin: WHAT?!!?? I don't have THAT kind of cash!
Obi-Wan: Well you could try sharpening it on these younglings. I've got a headache and all their questions are driving me NUTS!
Anakin: hmmm.... Sharpen my lightsaber on younglings...... hmmmmmm.....
Obi-Wan: uh, that was a joke Anakin. I'll spot you the cash for a new crystal THIS time, but next time you're on your own.

Yes.




NO NO.. Only activated specials show up in the training list of the creature.


Things that do not need activating e.g. Marring Storm, do not show on that training list. Check your datapad everytime you tame if there is an ability there.

Triggered attack can be taught like normal commands and other skills will workif pets have one as an innate, so always check datapad after tame.


If you have already learnt skill it just means that you can teach it to any pet from then on even if they have no innates.

So, basically, I tame the legendary hephalump nerf herder godspank, that has a chance of knowing the planatary mushroom field making ability. I would open the data pad and it should say "Planatary musrhoom field" in the data pad. if it don't, then it don't have an ability, correct?
