phantomman01 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Hi All, Last night I perfect tamed a 150 sabre for cave runs since I had a high tier saddle. I was out leveling him up and I ran into a female Ovis, which I've been looking for so I can start breeding them since I already have two males. I jumped off the Sabre to tame it and my Sabre attacked the Ovis, killed, then ate it. It was kind of funny and frustrating at the same time, especially me calling my Sabre an idiot and do you know how hard it is to find those, lol. Anyway the Sabre had food in it's inventory, was on neutral, wasn't being attacked, and nothing aggressive was around. Am I just being stupid and missing something somewhere? No big deal I'll start putting tames on passive but I was just wondering. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booned Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 It could've been your Sabre was set to 'Attack My Target' if you started to try and knock it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ovis is a passive tame, it doesn't require tranqing. Oddly enough, something similar happened to me once. I always bring my sheep back to my base, drop them in my egg layer pen where most everything is on passive and fenced off, grab a cake, and come out to tame it. One sheep however managed to be gone when I got back. I checked inventories, and one of my tames had eaten it. I hadn't attacked it, it surely hadn't attacked anything, nothing hostile was happening anywhere nearby, but I guess they're just too tasty to resist sometimes. I dropped lots of others in the same way without issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akamurk Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 LOL I brought back an achatina once and the minute I dropped it in my base, the whole yard ran at it and killed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oggybobo Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Maybe the Ovis was giving the Sabre "the ole stink eye", and decided to take things to the streets! On a serious note, that seems very strange. I have had my Rex attack other animals while I was taming and or stomp on them to death, but never a passive tame. I guess the safest thing to do, but obviously a little risky is to set your mount to passive. You'll have to weigh the risk vs reward at that point. Hope you get your elusive female Ovis.

From now on if I'm Ovis hunting it's only going to be by Argy, lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I usually take my Argy and drop them in my taming pen but I was out trying to level up that goofy Sabre, lol. Good luck on finding that male though!

Teddansen Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Maybe it was set on aggressive? Then it'd definitely eat anything around.... Or it wanted to prove itself as a valuable member of your team so it did what it does best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
