Taming creatures in Once Human offers players unique opportunities to expand their gameplay by capturing wild animals, fostering them, and even using some to defend your territory. Whether you’re aiming to create a petting zoo or unleash a ferocious beast to help you in battle, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about taming creatures in Once Human.
Let’s get into it!!
Before you can start taming animals, you need to unlock specific abilities within the mimetic system. Here’s how to do it:
Two key mimetics are necessary:
– Animal Capture: Costs 7 points. This unlocks the Whistle, allowing you to summon tamed animals and grants access to the Tranquilizer Throwing Needle, which is essential for capturing animals.
– Animal Taming: Also costs 7 points. This ability unlocks the Animal Trough (for feeding and hydrating your captured creatures) and specialized animal feeds.
Once you’ve unlocked the necessary mimetics, you’ll need to craft the tools using your Supplies Workbench:
– Whistle: Requires 6 Steel Ingots.
– Tranquilizer Throwing Needle: Requires 3 Steel Ingots, 8 Engineering Plastics, 5 Rubber, and 3 Stardust Sources.
Ensure you carry several tranquilizer needles when you go hunting, as missing your throws can quickly deplete your supply.
When trying to tame creatures, you need to lower their health without killing them. Here’s how to effectively do that:
– Use a lower-tier weapon: High-tier weapons may kill animals too quickly. Instead, use something like a Tier 1 Rustic Crossbow to bring down the animal’s health gently.
– Watch the health bar: Each tamable animal has a white line on its health bar. You must reduce the creature’s health below this white line to prepare it for capture.
You’ll find different animals in various regions of the map, and some areas are better for hunting certain creatures:
– Bears: Found in Chalk Peak, especially near the Bear Cave.
– Deer: Common in Chalk Peak and along the road between two mountain ranges.
– Boars: Found in fields with dense plant life.
– Rabbits: Can be hunted in the grassy fields just outside town.
– Crocodiles: Best found in swampy Everglades, particularly on small islands.
– Wolves and Rams: Located along the roads in Red Sands.
Once the animal’s health is below the white indicator line, the line will turn green, signaling it’s ready to be captured.
– Equip the Tranquilizer Throwing Needle and throw it at the animal.
– When the animal falls asleep, approach it and press F to capture it.
Captured animals are stored in your inventory under the tools section.
Once you’ve captured an animal, you need to create a safe environment for it in your base. Here’s how:
– Build a pen: Use foundations and walls to create a secure area. Some players prefer fully enclosed spaces to prevent hostile animals from attacking each other.
– Install Troughs: You’ll need to place both a feeding trough and a hydration trough inside the pen. Ensure that you regularly refill these with the animal’s preferred food and water.
Each creature has specific dietary needs that must be met for its tameness level to rise. You can access this information by interacting with the animal inside the pen:
– Favorite foods
As your animal’s tameness increases, it will unlock various traits that provide benefits:
– Tameness Levels and Trait Unlocks:
– 20% Tameness: Unlocks the first trait.
– 50% Tameness: Unlocks the second trait.
– 80% Tameness: Unlocks the third and fourth traits (for S-Tier animals).
You can monitor multiple captured animals from a single window by interacting with any of them. This will show their tameness, hydration, energy, and other stats at a glance.
Once your animal reaches a high tameness level, you can summon it using the Whistle to assist in combat:
– Combat animals (e.g., Bears, Wolves) can defend your base during territory purification events, acting as additional defenders alongside your turrets.
Once you have both a male and female of a species, and their tameness levels are sufficiently high, you can place them in the same pen to breed. Some animals, like rabbits, breed faster than others, potentially overwhelming your territory animal limit.
Taming creatures in Once Human adds a fascinating layer of strategy and resource management to the game. Whether you aim to create a farm for passive resources or summon a mighty bear to defend your base, the taming system offers plenty of rewards for those willing to invest the time and effort.
By following this guide, you’re now equipped with all the knowledge to start taming your own animals in Once Human. Happy hunting!
