[ Quick Summary ]
The Taming system in Metin2 allows players to capture and utilize monsters for assistance in PvE and PvP content. This guide covers the taming mechanics, capture methods, and practical usage tips.
[ Body ]
Metin2's Taming system lets players weaken specific monsters and attempt to capture them using specialized items. Captured monsters can provide passive buffs, active skills, or combat assistance depending on the monster type and taming level.
Taming Mechanics:
- Monster eligibility: Not all monsters can be tamed. Higher-level and boss-type monsters have lower base taming success rates.
- Taming items: Specific items such as Taming Seals, Capture Talismans, or region-specific orbs are required to initiate the taming attempt.
- Success rate calculation: Base success rate modified by character level, taming skill level, and monster level difference. Higher-level monsters are harder to tame.
- Taming levels: Captured monsters gain experience and can be leveled up, unlocking additional skills and buffs.
Capture Process:
1. Weaken the target monster to below a threshold HP percentage
2. Use a Taming Item on the weakened monster
3. A capture check is rolled based on the formula: base_rate × (1 + taming_skill_bonus) × (monster_level_factor)
4. Successful taming adds the monster to your monster journal; failed attempts consume the taming item
Monster Usage:
- Stored monsters appear in the monster journal and can be summoned during play
- Each monster provides different buffs: stat bonuses, skill cooldown reductions, or combat passive effects
- Monsters can be leveled through feeding and combat participation
- Some monsters have elemental affinities that interact with specific game content
[ How to Optimize Taming Results ]
1. Target monsters within your level range for the best success rates
2. Use higher-quality taming items for difficult captures
3. Group taming attempts increase success chances through shared skill bonuses
4. Monitor monster experience gain to level captured creatures faster
5. Combine taming with other systems like enchanting for synergistic effects
