    Just a message to say that I love the Taming system. I think it's well designed and well executed. Don't change a thing!
    Things that I especially love are:
    - A new pet doesn't have to be trained from zero
    - Pets hold aggro very well
    - While gathering, I still can direct my pet towards that pesky wolf that's coming closer
    - Pets are responsive
    - The cost to become a functional tamer is doable when you don't want to become a GM in a week, and a Tamer doesn't have to be a GM to be functional
    - The Escape skill works very well to decrease aggro on the player

    So thanks!

    Ysold.

    Some things in SotA are done really well. I personally love the combat system... and housing system.

    Taming in WOW has the opposite problem when trying to level a pet that is much lower level than you. It can be frustrating. I'd like to see a balance between the two. The problem with SOTA taming is that once you have your skills where you want them each pet you tame is just ready to go. From a time point of view it is great, especially if you can only play for a small amount of time each week. I do feel less invested in my pets though because of it.

    I'd like to see some input into my pets growth after I tame it but not from the ground up necessarily.

    Also desperately need taming enchants so it's not a big compromise to stats or another skill as using the taming artifacts is at the moment.
