Water/Silk striders in Ardenweald

Unread post by datgrl »

The tool tip for the striders in Ardenweald say they are tameable but they are friendly and cannot be tamed. Is there a trick to getting one of these NPC's to aggro so they can be tamed?

For a VERY short time, there was an exploit for Maldraxxi Hunters that let them engage friendly NPCs. That was fixed very quickly, so now there isn't any way to do it that is known. If it's friendly, you can't tame it until we get another exploit or toy with unintended but accepted side effects.

Resident exploiter/bug finder that is currently looking for a bug that can safely be shared to tame unintended pets.

Found a bug? Contact me so I can investigate; it's likely far worse a bug than what you think.

For proof that I'm not making things up, feel free to look at my Blusky account; @campaigner.bsky.social

Minor achievement; my group got six nasty exploits fixed on May 12th! Super satisfying.

There isn’t. Often things are made tamable that cannot actually be tamed, like Friendly npcs.
