Documenting the changes we spoke about.
Keep the five slots. Keep the maximum slots per player at 5. Change the way each slot works to be in accordance with:
Level 1 - AOE so it hits multiple targets
Level 2 - Ranged
Level 3 - Healing (small heal, think level 60 magery, has a cooldown like bandaging but gets shorter the higher your taming.)
Level 4 - DD (Stun)
Level 5 - Tank (Devotion Taunt)
Implement 7 types of creatures for each of the five slots, one each for animal type. Give each animal type a special attack.:
Canine - howl (run away in fear, like the devotion undead? or a curse) (Using devotion's dispel evil, but will act on all mobs, not just evil ones. Does not do dispel evil's drain of transformed necro mobs)
Bird - peck (dot bleed) (Using weapon ability bleed attack)
Ursine - knock back, stun, knock down
Aracnid - poison
Plant/Earth - slow/entangle/reduce movement speed, swing speed
Dragon - fire (fire field)
Feline - back stab attack, or the fencing attack
Increase the number of stable slots for players
Move all other existing mounts and domesticated animals to herding/butchering, see other post for possible design ideas.
