  10. ROFLMAO, just went through this again and this time noticed that under Canine “Hyena” is listed.

    From wikipedia:
    “Hyenas or Hyaenas (from Greek “ὕαινα” – hyaina[1]) are the animals of the family Hyaenidae (play /hɪˈɛnɨdɛ/) of suborder feliforms of the Carnivora.”

    that is they are cats not dogs. Those dumb turkeys at SOE have stuffed it up again!

  11. lots of other Taxonomic errors too.

    Hyenas are cats not dogs.
    Turtles are reptiles not amphibians
    Armadillos are not rodents
    Beavers are not rodents they are weasels
    Sheep are Ovine, not bovine (ungulates is a better category for both)
    Gorillas are Primates not simians (monkeys)
    Crocodiles are reptiles not crustaceans (crabs)
    Pigs are also ungulates so why are they separated out? Some sort of Jewish/Muslim thing?

  13. Also, badgers are weasels. That is, on Earth they are, but Norrathian taxonomy could be different. In a world with ample arcane and divine power, anything is possible.

    For example, the Norrathian Hyena could have been the result of a crazed gnome’s experiment involving a broken tinkered mechanomagical teleport device, a sabretooth cat, and half a dozen wolf puppies.

  14. The one that stuck out for me was hyenas. I knew they were cats not dogs.

    The others are kinda taking liberties to fit into 12 categories.

    I have gotten 5 more submissions including cockatrice and another drake!

  22. Un, no….A Hyena is neither cat nor dog…they have their own family, the Hyaenidae. Their closest relatives are the mongoose, meerkats and the like.

    Between the cat and dog families, Hyena’s are closer to the cat.

  25. Added Lizard (flame) from Lavastorm, Blue Bat from Crystalline Breaks, Frostfang Lion and Frostfang Lioness, Lion (Ghost Red) from Shard of Love, Deer (ghostly) from Shard of Love, Monarch Drake (Shard of Love). All of these were found by Kragwitch.

  28. Cool. Turtles are reptiles btw, not amphibians. Not sure if that is your classification or theirs, but I think it should be fixed in the guide.

    Too bad no spiders or elephants. There are a lot of neat spiders we could get, and I have fond (if distant) memories of leveling up in CL with bull elephants chasing me around.

  32. It is the SoE categories. There are not a lot of amphibians and turtles are livig in an “amphibian” ecosystem so it makes kind of sense.
    Hyenas in Norrath are NOT called hyeanas but “carrion hounds” so they’re technically dogs too.

    One info is missing at first glance: are exotic defensives or offensives?

    1. Not true – I’ve tamed them with several of my beastlords. The trick is that it’s only tamable at certain levels. I tried taming with my 95 Heroic, and I couldn’t tame one. Then someone suggested mentoring to 70. I did that, and was able to tame one.

  35. Originally posted by Whilhelmina:

    Just checked. Dire, Enchanted, Drake, and Mystical all have Attacks for their combat arts/spells, so that suggests Offensive to me.

  36. You have draconine guardian listed as tamable and I did see someone with one but I’m trying to tame (yes I do have the ability to tame exotics) and I’m getting “certain enemies cannot be tamed.” and can’t tame it.

  37. You have draconine guardian listed as tamable and I did see someone with one but I’m trying to tame (yes I do have the ability to tame exotics) and I’m getting “certain enemies cannot be tamed.” and can’t tame it.

    I tamed one about two hours ago just above the Pit of the Awakened.

    I know you said you have the ability to tame exotics, but are you actually using the Tame Exotic Warder ability? Stare Down doesn’t work on Exotics either.

  38. When taming exotics be aware that you have to get them to 25% instead fo the regular 50%. I just tamed a draconine guardian about 5 min ago.

    Also….. Shard of Love lion was not able to be tamed.

  39. I’ve been using the deer in Beta and I really enjoy some of the things the Bovid can bring to your group. It may not be the best DPS warder but it’s great defensively and has a little group heal as well.

    Who can turn up the chance of a the MeatBeast around level 50?

  40. Seems that you can also tame the Shimmering Guardians walking around outside the Poet’s Palace (cheetah, panther) as a dire pet.

    The glass deers from Shard of Love can also be made a dire pet.

  42. Actually the crocs in Darklight Wood should be tameable. I guess that comes from my miss interpreted post from the beta forms. I meant that you can tame them, so there is a low level option to gain a croc warder.

  46. Re: Cats and Dogs on Hyaena/Hyena. Real world taxonomy is barely scientific it relies on imperfect categorization of premodern scientists. It is also difficult to even classify species as they are constantly changing and so many different factors are present. Living in Kenya I know that people refer to hyenas as being in packs not prides (this cackle business is just someones sense of humor). It doesn’t matter what SOE chooses so long as the flavor is good. Hyenas ‘feel’ alot more like canines than felines whatever their evolutionary background.

  50. TO DO:
    Bovid: Add Antonican Stag (Antonica @ Archer Woods).
    Feline: Add Shimmering Guardian (leopard) in Shimmering Citadel.
    Feline: Notate Shimmering Guardian (panther) in Shimmering Citadel.
    Bat: Notate Flaming Bat @ Nektulos Forest
    Rodent: Notate Armadillos @ Sinking Sands
    Bovid: Rename Camel to Pack Dromedary
    Bovid: Add Camel/Camel Herder from Sinking Sands

  61. Exact location of the Duck is -588, 174, 1072 between the building and the rock located there. I helped a guy get the duck at around 10:50am est The duck was back up around 12:52pm est. So I will have to check back in two hours to see if it is a two hour spawn timer. Also the duck’s name is Mallard Phimore. He is a lvl 90 double up. Doesn’t hit to hard.

    Nox, and Chunk I’ll hit CL up and take a look. I only remember lions in CL, but I’ll take a quick fly by. If I find a loc I’ll drop it back here.

  65. Note: the EQ2 ZAM Bestiary was invaluable for me filling out some of the details on here. If I start listing every possible mob name for each pet, I may have to go the floating window approach.

  70. Forgot to add there is an Icy boar that’s like the turtle in looks/color but body resembles the mutated pig from temple street. Most likely another exotic tameable but not able to verify at this time.

  75. TO DO
    Add: An Aloof Cat in Estate of Unrest. – a domesticated cat.
    Add: Rust Monsters @ Timorous Deep, Butcherblock Mts
    Add: Gorilla @ Kunzar Jungle
    Remove: Tiger from Oasis @ Sinking Sands

  78. Was checking on the other pigs and for some reason your fix on their sections either did not work or something else. I cleared cookies for the site and its still showing the CE warboar and regular pigs both in both sections. Not nagging, just letting you know in case you happen to miss that. =))

  80. Was checking on the other pigs and for some reason your fix on their sections either did not work or something else. I cleared cookies for the site and its still showing the CE warboar and regular pigs both in both sections. Not nagging, just letting you know in case you happen to miss that. =))

    The Warboar is functionally identical to boars/pigs. You think it should have a separate category all to itself? What if SOE adds other unique appearances later on? Every time I add a category, it changes the page numbering of the article.

  81. Just for giggles, I was running through Cazel’s Mesa not long ago. If I would have had Tame Exotic Warder, I got the impression from the spells that I could tame both the leopards and panthers there. Can anybody confirm this? If so, might be cool to update that in the exotic warders section =)

  84. TO DO:

    ADD: Emerald caves bats (Faceless Oracle’s Demesne on new Erollisi quest).

    Also, according to recent Update Notes, panthers are now regular Felines instead of Dire. I’d certainly like to test the Leopards and Panthers in Shimmering Citadel again. They have the same mob name but one is a leopard/cheetah appearance and one is a black panther.

    I hope they add a way to allow us to store Beastlord appearances. I’d hate to lose the housecat appearance if I get an inclination to have a leopard and then have to run Unrest again to get it back.

  86. I cant seem to find the Flame Hellhound nor any info on it in the cave of fear. There are 2 a horror hound but they are not attackable therefore not tameable. Any other places to find those or better info?

  92. Oh wow… please post the mole rat when you find it. The only mole rat I can think of is the zone in the Hole zone where the mole rat boss is chewing through the wall while you run away. But he is only visible for a few seconds before he dies afterwards, so probably not enough time to tame it (though I did possess it once, if I started casting right when he came through the wall). Hmm!

  93. Fine, I’ll spoil it.

    Staintooth burrowers in Dire Hollow: Infernal Echoes (~level 35) are tameable. You need Investigating Dire Hollow (Teamwork) quest to enter and there are three versions of the instance, chosen randomly. The quest is repeatable once every two hours.

    If the first monster you see in there is a rumbleroot, you’re in the correct one.

  107. I’m surprised the icy crab and icy turtles from the one Frostfell instence isn’t listed in here as being tameable. My two beastlords have them both tamed right now. Both keeps their icy appearence.

  108. Another one: A Dread Servant ~ Miragul’s Menagerie

    Exotic (Mystical), darker version of the regular manticore. Same as a sattar abomination in Feerrot, haven’t tested if the latter are tameable.

    (I could send screenshots of these, but…where?)

  110. Thanks all for the suggested warders. I will update after the new year.

    I tamed the piggy in Nek Castle a couple of nights ago.

    You can e-mail screenshots to mywarderisbetterthanyours(at)eq2wire.com. 😉

  114. Found yet another one:
    a pesky nocturnal ambusher @ Sundered Splitpaw: Upper Tunnels

    Ghostly bat…

    Note the name. Other bats in the zone are untameable and there’s only a couple of those pesky ones in there.

  115. …and a dreadsnout glutton @ Sundered Splitpaw: Trial of Harclave.

    Exotic (Dire), looks like the mutated pig in Temple Street. So there’s an alternate location for those of you who want it, but can’t get in there.

  118. Also just sat there and watched it next to my adult version. The pup is way more animated, it does everything the adult does (pants / snifs around) but also scratches its ear, even does a cute little howl 😀

  125. Ok major update today! I believe I’m caught up on everything I’ve received by e-mail and comments. That makes 110 warders so far.

    TO DO:
    a krait patriarch @ Great Divide
    a bloodskull warhound (hyena) @ Bloodskull Valley: Maulic’s Stronghold
    a murk viper @ Forgotten Pools
    a captured lion @ Timorous Deep pirate cave
    a burning familiar ~ Jarsath Wastes
    a pesky nocturnal ambusher @ Sundered Splitpaw: Upper Tunnels
    a dreadsnout glutton @ Sundered Splitpaw: Trial of Harclave
    leopard @ Cazels mesa
    lashers @ Oakmyst Forest (and move all lashers to Rodent category)
    an ash owlbear @ Nektulos Forest
    a snaptooth crocodile from the Hidden Cache
    an escaped kadaren primate @ Court of Truth: Riddle of the Sphinx
    sabertooth @ Pillars of Flame (Sabertooth Valley)
    a wolf pup @ Great Divide (near Ring War)
    Add photos for rustbeast, an aloof cat, and a burning drake

    Anyone else having problems with the sea turtles appearing as frogs?

    Oh yea! One of the first warders I tamed was an sea turtle in frostfang and it became a frog once tamed. Thought that was weird, figured it was a bug or something. But then I got the icy turtle from the frostfell instance and forgot about it haha

  133. I’ve heard many complaints from guildmates/friends on my server about how obnoxiously large the drakonine guardian is even shrunk, which is why I never tamed it..not surprised its been taken out as tamable.

  139. The mobs: A mangy cat (4 of them linked with a troll NPC) are tamable and are located in Pillars of Flame at 4.19, -93.08, -783.39.

    They are the same size/classification as the “An Aloof Cat” from Unrest. They do have different skins, however; patchy colored fur in three colors. Black and grey, white and cream, and red (reddish) and brown.

  144. Another regular kitty cat model – Hergla the Wretch in Pillars of Flame, heroic troll in the Ortallian Camp near the main quest hub, has 3 or 4 different color cats linked with her that can be tamed.

  145. @ Lenanu – Yeah, I tried that from early on as well. 🙁

    I’ve been testing out various Drakes to see what wound up being the replacement one for the Drakonine, so far these are on my untameable list:

    Tenebrous Tangle
    – an azure drake
    – an azure drakling
    – a squalburst drake

    Steamfont Mountains
    – an ebon drake

  146. Thanks Hellina, Seduce, and others who continue to find new warders. 😉

    Let’s hope SOE plans to add some more choices in the future as well as make warders out of existing models.

  147. TO DO:

    Add: a hungering hellhog from Estate of Unrest
    Add: a defiled wolf @ Firemyst Gully: A Foul Wind (requires examining a scroll “A Foul Wind” which drops in a small chest off any trash in Antonica agro-or-not)
    Add: Icy Crab @ Gigglegibber Gifty Storehouse (Frostfell instance)
    NOT: Icy Crab from New Halas (loses ice appearance)
    Add: A mangy cat (4 variations — Black and grey, white and cream, and red (reddish) and brown) linked to Hergla the Wretch @ Pillars of Flame (Ortallian Camp).

  149. I did see someone with a drakota warder a few days ago, one of the normal gray ones we’re used to seeing. Its about the size of the small drakota adds that are with the named drakota that spawn in Antonica and Commonlands. I have no idea where it was tamed at sadly.

  151. Following up on the comment that the Drakonines were reverted to a base drake model, Lenanu is correct that they exactly match the three found in Commonlands. Just tested them now, to add to the untameable drake listing. 🙁

    The Commonlands
    – Ladon
    – drakota adept
    – drakota adjutant

  152. Further untameable drakes/drakota:

    Thenebrous Tangle
    – a hewn stone drake
    – a thundermaw drake

    The Temple of Scale
    – Rantukara
    – a guardian drake
    – a temple guardian
    – disciple of the Awakened
    – a young drake

  156. …and yet another one:
    a pygmy cockhen @ Kunzar Jungle

    Good luck taming these…they’re level one and have seven hp. I had to try quite a few times before I managed to tame one.

    Default size after taming, but at least the color seems unique.

  157. Exotic (enchanted):
    a gilded guardian @ The Nest of the Great Egg

    Golden flying snake, part of the ring event at the end.

    Could someone check “A Relic Guardian” in Forgotten Pools? Based on the ZAM tags, it seems tameable. But I’m too wimpy to try that one myself.

  158. Not quite to the point I can tame the exotics myself yet, but I did come across a post on Zam stating that ‘a tundra beast’ @ Kylong Plains is no longer tamable as of 26 Jan 12.

    Not liking the trend of seeing the varity of tames decrease. Would be nice if they add some new ones when they take others away.

    As of last week: ‘a timorous octopus’ @ Timorous Deep is not tamable. Pity, I think an octopus might make an entertaining warder.

  161. I think some of these were already said but… Enjoy.

    *was unable to try due to lack of mob spawnage

  162. Nice list, thanks. Just restarted EQ2 after a year out with a Beastlord.

    Oh and for the record:

    Hyenas are neither cats nor dogs. They belong to their own family, the Hyaenidae, which also includes the aardwolf. This family is more closely related to cats than to dogs.

    The resemblance of hyenas to dogs is due to convergent evolution.

    (Work in a zoo)

  168. As Zerith noted, the ones I listed were untameables. (Frustration of trying to find a tameable drake in case I tried something else post-Drakonine nerf.)

    Thanks for the updates Feldon and huzzah Richter on finding the tameable regular looking drake! 😀

  175. The vday instence of SoL’s tameable stag just turns into the same as the normal SoL’s tameable stag. Just one can be any level to tame the vday version compaired to 50+ for normal instence.

  177. savage escaped specimen ~ Vasty Deep: The Abandoned Labs

    Black and red cockatrice, haven’t seen that color anywhere else. Has knockbacks and such, so it was tough to tame. I recommend bringing a tank along. 😛

  178. A few new warders up on test in the new waking lands zone.

    A corrupted wolf, doe, a new croc skin, and a panther. They have also added a new familiy for beastlords – Insects! Beastmaster sight dosen’t seem to be working on them to well, so I haven’t tested out what might be avalable for that. I would assume beetles, the bulky scarubs, centepeeds, mosquitos, dragonflys, and spiders would fall under that famimliy now. I took a few screenshots of the new Withering Lands pets, not sure how I send those in to the site. Some pretty exciting stuff this next patch 😀

  179. Been checking but seems nothing has been updated yet. Will the Beastlord warders get updated to show Insects on what can be tamed. Also will the new warder for the old get pics as well?

  180. Sorry for the lack of updates here. I have received several submissions by e-mail which I will be adding soon.

    As for Insects, looks like that will be a QUEST that is being added over the next few weeks.

  181. there is a quest from the gator tamer in Grobb, on grobb faction of course, during the course of the quest you come across one dealing with a gator invasion.. during that invasion you CAN TAME a red gator with green stripes as well as a grape gator with green stripes ( looks black leather from a distance )

    find me on Oasis and ill show you the red one.

  185. the sea turtle you have marked out above can be attained in SS way over underwater near the white spectres groups of 3 if i remember right.. will try an get a /loc later.

  190. Ive found a few tameables. 1.guilded gardian (gold flying snake, nest of the great egg) Desert Raptor (raptor, sinking sands)and I think scavenging monkeys (white monkey, shimering cidedel) I think thats it. some, nontameables are, 1. eidion watchdog (zombie dog, nek castle: the return) and Quezol (blue flying snake, nek forest)

  192. Note to self:

    a summoned frightling — in TT is a mystical warder

    also the sea turtles in Sinking Sands can be tamed as amphibian. they float above the ground as if there still swimming in the ocean

  202. Ok folks. FINALLY I have updated this page as best I can with the info provided above. If your comment was slashed out then that means the info has been added to the Guide.

    I also changed the order of the pages to be Alphabetical by Offensive, Defensive, and then Exotic. Hope this doesn’t throw anyone off.

    As you can see I am MISSING some photos of these Warders especially insects! If I can, I will track down photos but it’s really best if people can take photos and e-mail them to me warderphotos (at) eq2wire.com please!!

  205. Hey, Feldon, you are missing all of the Withered Lands ones
    the wolves are tameable
    the panthers are as well
    the crocs in the swamp area too
    and the does
    (the dark raptors are not, didnt try the lighter ones)

  212. Ok I think I’m up-to-date although I am missing photos for:

    • a mangy cat @ Pillars of Flame – RED VERSION
    • a gilded guardian @ The Nest of the Great Egg
    • ONE of these: an emerald stonegazer, an emerald stoneleer, a pygmy cockhen @ Kunzar Jungle
    • savage escaped specimen ~ Vasty Deep: The Abandoned Labs
    • (corrupted wolf) @ Withered Lands
    • (corrupted crocodile) @ Withered Lands
    • (a corrupted doe) @ Withered Lands
    • an obol soulglider @ Obol Plains
    • a Savage Silverback @ Eidolon Jungle

    If you guys can take screenshots of these warders (it can be just a full screenshot, you don’t have to crop) and mail it to warderphotos(at)eq2wire.com that would be much appreciated.

  215. I am not sure that insect warders are actually available on live. If you had a beta buffed BL on beta you were given the spell Tame Insect. As far as I know the quest line to obtain the spell has NOT been added. It would be good to know how the OP got the spell.

  216. Just an FYI, there is a black colored drake in Najena’s Tower as well. Same skin as the red one, but a black color to it, you have to clear a few packs of red ones to get to the one with the bigger black one in it.

    All of these drakes also repop if you accidently kill the one you wanted to tame (stupid effin merc).

  219. Hi yes I tried to Tame an Insect Warder in Enchanted Lands( an impaler wasp ) and some others(Burn Spear named)( Unruly Impaler non agro ones), I wasn’t able to tame them as of Monday, November 19th 2012.., you may want to change that picture. I can send a screen shot if you want one.
    Keep up the great work, Koata of Crushbone

    1. Hi yes I tried to Tame an Insect Warder in Enchanted Lands( an impaler wasp ) and some others(Burn Spear named)( Unruly Impaler non agro ones), I wasn’t able to tame them as of Monday, November 19th 2012.., you may want to change that picture. I can send a screen shot if you want one.

      Wait, so you can’t tame any insect. So what would you change the picture to? Picard Facepalm perhaps. 😉

  221. @ Feldon

    Not sure if it’s already been updated by someone else but the Yeti in KP is tameable. It is what I’m currently using atm. If someone already updated you then ignore me like most 🙂

    1. Not sure if it’s already been updated by someone else but the Yeti in KP is tameable. It is what I’m currently using atm. If someone already updated you then ignore me like most

      Thanks for the update. I’ll fix it.

  222. Wait, so you can’t tame any insect. So what would you change the picture to? Picard Facepalm perhaps.

    Yes. If you could add SOE logo sign as the face. Would be great. Insect pets have never been on live. Only on beta and test for over a year now IIRC.

  227. Ok! Just added all the screenshots that Ferrek sent in!

    Still looking for that elusive Housecat (red) in Pillars of Flame, the gold flying snake which is part of an encounter in Nest of the Great Egg, and the Kunzar and Vasty Deep cockatrices.

  232. Oh, and a lovely “bug” Beastmaster Sight dosent seem to show any of these as tameable, you will have to beat them to 25% and then try.

    So far scorpions, spiders, centepeeds, beetles, dragonflys can be tamed (at least most can be, I have come across several zones they cannot be tamed from)

  233. You cannot stare them down either… 8(

    As far as untameable goes, the vespids and leeches (which were ‘tameable’ to advance the quest) in Kunzar Jungle cannot be tamed. The dragon flies can be, but they lose the purple sparklie.

  234. 23 new Insect Warder appearances added all courtesy of screenshots and notes provided by Ferrek!! And I can think of a number of other spider, dragonfly, and scorpions throughout Norrath that, if tameable, may even double this number.

    Note that four of the appearances are bugged (specifically the 3 ‘bone’ spiders in the Field of Bone which all turn into grey beetles when adopted). Hopefully these are fixed soon!

  235. FYI tryed to tame the black and yellow scorpions in timmerous deep / fens, both cannot be tamed, also tryed to tame the greyish crawlers in fens, also not tameable. and yea there are still a ton more out there, many of them copies, but having all of the zones where you can tame them would be nice 🙂

    Just remember Beastmaster Sight doesn’t seem to work on insects, so it is all trail and error taming to see what works, and what does not!

    -Ferrek

  236. Ok I did the quest in Feerrott, and now in live game I can tame Insects,so far a spider in Bonemire and Scorpion in Sinking Sands worked. Tried Wurmbone’s Crag,those Scorpions are not tameable at this time…this was Dec 15th 2012:)

    Koata of Crushbone

  237. Here is something I discovered. If you are on silver account you will not get spell. I’ve sent in petition and response was since spell is labeled fable those that are silver will not get. It is being escalated to see if this was intended or a bug. I got the credit but where I using station cards when my budget allows me I hop back and forth from gold to silver.

  239. There are a lot of insects in one zone with several different names to them, but all look exactly the same. If one zone is on the list, you can pretty much assume all insects with that apperance will be tamable 🙂

  251. You can add the flame wasp appearance to the insect category – I have tamed one on my BL.

    The Ember drones, workers, and soldiers @Kylong Plains.

    I tried the spell on two of them (the drone and worker, I think) so I’m pretty certain all three work.

  252. Oh, also, for the Reptiles; I can confirm that the light green plated chokidai in Chardok are tameable (the ones near the entrance) and look like the image you show.
    I can also confirm that the chokidai pup in Sebilis is tameable and gives a dark green appearance (plated) – darker than the one in the listing. It is the appearance I am currently using on my reptile warder.

  253. The flesh feeders and flesh fiends in Kylong PLains in the Gash of T’Thelin are tameable as mystical warders. They are green version of the frightling. They look like they are the same color green to me, just different names.

  254. not sure if something has changed recently but i have tried to tame at least 3 different scorpions on the list and several spiders and have had no luck taming them,any of the scorpions in commonlands and several of the blue spiders in 2 different zones.

  255. I just came back to the game, and hated the fact that Ratonga got Tigers for their pets. The moment I hit 10 I went to tame a spider, but both the corrupted Spiders and the Diseased Spiders in G Faydark are untamable.

  257. Any news on where and what we might find warder wise for Bristlebane day yet? Not finding much of anything in game or online. I’d call it a challenge and rise to the occasion but we only have what? 5 or 6 days to find them? *sigh*

  258. Just wanted to update for those who may not know. On Antonia Bayle, we’ve confirmed a spawn point for the new bovid critter, “A Berry-fed Bovid” in Windstalker Village in Antonica near the cows. This bovid appears to spawn at the beastlord’s level (the one who is catching him) and dies quite easily so be careful. It doesn’t appear that there is a level requirement as I caught him on my level 13 Beastlord and he was my level.

    1. Is this guide being updated? Is it worth mentioning that Darkpaw Pouncers on kerra isle can’t be tamed? Either way, thanks a ton for this guide

      I update the guide periodically. Also I wasn’t trying to document every mob in every zone, but just a few representatives so people can easily get any appearance they want. That’s good to know about kerra isle pouncers. I think they’re dire because they’re displacer beasts, right?

      I’ve got a bunch of photo submissions for GU66 and so that will probably be a good time to update this guide.

  262. Someone a bit higher level then me might want to recheck the bone spiders. As of earlier today a dust crawler @ Butcherblock Mountains did not turn into a beetle unless I somehow don’t know what the conditions are for it to happen.

    I tamed it, zoned, resummoned it, it stayed a grey bone spider.

  263. @ miragian

    The info on the guide may be out dated, at the time I tamed those spiders they were bugged. I neither work for Sony or know of their mystical bug fixing ways, so I would not know if or when they might of fixed them. Haven’t been playng my beastlord in a long time as well. Good to know they have fixed those spiders now though, usualy when one gets fixed they all do (I had posted bug reports on them several times, one might of finally been read).

    Now the real question is, anything new to tame in Siren’s Grotto? 😀
    I already submited screenshots on the Cobalt Scar finds (hint hint Feldon).

  266. Been trying to get a spider for like 3 hours…none of these work anymore…I have gotten every other class of warder…so I know I am not an idiot…something must be wrong.

    1. Been trying to get a spider for like 3 hours…none of these work anymore…I have gotten every other class of warder…so I know I am not an idiot…something must be wrong.

      Did you do insect quest? I’ve added a more detailed note explaining that insects cannot be tamed until you complete the quest, and linked to the quest details.

    1. The Yeti in Kylong Plains can be tamed, it says need more info in the list above. I have one for my Dire pet.

      Needs more info as in = what’s the exact name of the mob you tamed? 😉

      1. It was the tundra beast, I still have him. But, I went back to try and tame one and it didn’t work. I guess I can keep it since it was previously tamed, but you can’t get a new one.

  269. the devourers or however they r spelled can b tamed as dire pets, bats in obol plains cant member their names n the spiders in obol as well will find out name (blues colored bat and blue,purple and black spider all ik is they r by the bats n feral lujian mobs

    1. Although phylogenetically close to felines and viverrids, hyenas are behaviourally and morphologically similar to canines in several aspects

      If you think that ends the debate…

  279. Shadowy creatures (like the shadowy chokidai on Green Overlook in TD) are tameable. However, it appears that when tamed they lose their shadow appearance – at least, the shadowy chokidai I tamed turned into wild chokidai once I had it.

    1. I know this is a little dated, but I can confirm what Lodrelhai Says.. just tamed a Shadowy Stag in Commonlands (was lvl 84 heroic to me, though they died easy) and it turned into a regular stag as well.

  282. There’s a meatbeast hiding in Nektropos Castle in Nektulos. You have to hop/fly over the walls from Nektulos, don’t zone in. It’s a nasty thing and high level as well.
    All the patchwork beasts are tamable as well.

  283. I don’t know if this is still being updated at all, but people looking for flying snakes can find the blue and green ones at MUCH lower levels than listed. They can be pulled up out of the canyon in Darklight, at the entrance to Neriak. Have confirmed both can be tamed; kept the green one.

  288. Is this still being maintained? If so, thank you for making it. Its helpful. I’m rather new to Everquest 2 and have been playing a beastlord, which is lvl 42 now. Woohoo XD Anyway, I would love it if there was a Petopia (http://www.wow-petopia.com/) style website for beastlord warders and I was wondering if I was to do most of the dirty work I could use some of your resources to help flesh it out? I probably wouldn’t do it until I have a flying mount, tho, which is a ways off. So, if you see this, let me know?

  291. The fae drakes in Greater Faydark are tameable. The flying snakes in Antonica are tameable. The pygmy cockhen in Kunzar is red and green, not green. The tameable monkey in Maj’dul/Sinking Sands is brown and in the first plaza in Maj’dul. It’s not white.

  293. Unlisted dire beast: Cobalt Blackpaw, a black bear with a unique model. Big ruff on the neck and red eyes. Found in the Cobalt Scar, about lvl 99. Unlisted beetle: purple/blue iridescent. Kithicor Forest, Phantom Sea, lvl 101. Name has been forgotten and I’m too little to go look.

    As for Hergla, I’m telling you the truth lol. I’ll see if I can get a screenshot.

  295. The green armored chokidai from Chardok are in fact tameable, as are the ones in Sebilis. The pups and mongrels from Sebilis are actually a different color than the gnawers in Chardok. The Chardok chokodai are a light green, while the Sebilis ones are a very dark, almost black green on their backs, shading to lighter green. So, there’s a “new” chokidai color for you 🙂 I have screenshots.

  296. 😀 Thank you for the time and effort it took to compile this list, I have a Crageye Raptor that I tamed in sundered frontier as my dire warder so they can be tamed; I know the hellhounds in the Everling Mansion are tameable, the tigers even the white one in sinking sands are tameable-I have tamed both as I have 2 bls one evil one good…Weasels are in the Rodent family so it isn’t exact- who the hell cares? It’s a GAME just enjoy it…57 yr old gramma geek that loves both Skyrim and EQ2…If you don’t believe me go look up my profile on Steam (Nola Crenshaw or nodijo) and look at how many hours I have played and it is not doctored.

  299. I know this is an older thread but I just started a Beastlord and I was able to tame a Sea Turtle in Butchblock, next to the docks in the water. I did not read all the comments so this may already be confirmed but the list has it as no longer available.

  302. They seem to have removed both Ashfire Drakes and a burning familiar as being tamable. I just got the message on both that some enemies cannot be tamed. The Beastmaster Sight also doesn’t trigger for those, although both are gray to me.
