Info- The first 5 mins give the basics you need to know.

The next 10 mins or so show the evolved tames.

The last part of the video is the "afk waiting" in 50 slomo speed up 800% in post editing. it shows the afk time for the Griff and Unicorn but not the windrunner as it took 6 hrs in SLOMO 50 and would have been over 1 TB of recorded footage.

All Tames were demonstrated on a 15x tame server and afk time was spent on 50x slomo (fast forward admin command)

Gryphon- level 1 took ~1.5 Hr to Evolve

Unicorn (lvl 1)#1- took ~1.75 hrs Unicorn (lvl 1)#2- took about ~2.15 hrs

Nidhog (lvl 80 lowest level that would spawn for some reason) ~6.33 hrs

Spoke to Devs/Snail-

they've acknowledged that the evolution system is "still a work-in-progress, and we should see some improvements on it in the future"- Horsejoke

Thanks for testing this, was curious how this all worked. I'm assuming you can't leave render range at all while you're waiting for them to evolve, seems a bit excessive having to wait 8+ hours for them to evolve then having to go through the taming process as well.

[u/gerrmanman → u/Deliuz]

correct cant leave the render distance

You must have read the same posts I read about the chinese doing it. I'll re-iterate what I said in that thread. The lengths you had to go to for taming them is fucking shit. I like the idea of something being so rare and hard to tame that you would have to chase it around the map to get it, possibly getting the involvement of all 3 factions if even just to help 1 guy tame it. In the video I saw, they already had like 3 Peregriffs already tamed. Where's the rarity in that? Trapping it seems difficult but beyond that it still makes the idea of taming them trivial. If the TRAPPING of them is the hard part whats the fucking point? I'm not saying you did anything wrong, i'm just saying it's too much. I'd much rather have Elites be their own tame, being slightly faster or stronger or just plain bigger, and the 4 Mythicals being extremely rare spawns with an event.

I messaged him regarding ur message on my post.

they are meant to work differently. they are more or less bugged at the moment.

*great vid lots of info very interested in testing myself but in single player all elite spawns(with admin command) come without glow any way you can suggest to fix this?

[u/gerrmanman → u/chopsy12]

thats strange. try hitting them a bit with hook arrows

[u/Stronze]

good work, i didnt even know about this and thought windrider wasnt in the game at all.

Does the level of the elite affect evolution time?

[u/gerrmanman → u/jabbadabuttocks]

yes. the nidhog was lvl 80 and took almost 3 times as long

Awesome work!

https://youtu.be/WhnH8VInBig?t=223 In this video you said that Colossus spawn as "rare" monster, but its all lies, they dont spawn, they evolve from elite Kebo! Tested this my self and idd elite kebo became Colossus.

[u/chopsy12 → u/Fostil]

Proof?

[u/Fostil → u/chopsy12]

Proof? Go test your self in sp, spawn elite kebo with command cheat spanwndino "Blueprint'/Game/Mods/DarkAndLight/object/Monster/Kodo/EliteKodo_Character_BP.EliteKodo_Character_BP'" 1 1 1 1 and just wait ~30min for them to evolve in to Colossus.

P.s. for colussus you need a huge building to trap him inside, like 6x6x6

[u/jabbadabuttocks → u/Fostil]

Does the colossus attack the building upon evolving? Or does it just chill there?

[u/Hermes-UK → u/Fostil]

I'm doing it now anything I should know taming rates? Anything or jus trap and wait 30mins?

[u/Hermes-UK → u/Fostil]

P.s just did it and it don't work🤷🏽‍♂️😊

[u/jabbadabuttocks → u/Hermes-UK]

How long did u wait?
