v0.34 Talk:Peregrine falcon

From Dwarf Fortress Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

In the box to the right of the article it is claimed that peregrine falcons cannot be trained. This is false, as I've domesticated several using animal trainers and a training zone. I have no clue how to change the template and i haven't found an obvious way to do it. -L3tuc3 13:15, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

It says "Cannot be trained" (i.e. for hunting/war), not "Cannot be tamed". --Quietust 13:19, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
Aha! You're correct there. It confused me as all related skills and activities point to training. I mean you catch it, tame it at the cage, then it's taken to an animal training zone where it's trained with a train animal job to a level (up to domesticated) by a dwarf with animal training skill enabled. Knowing this, stating "cannot be trained" appears to be a falsehood because of it's broad implication and I think can be worded/explained/described better. "Cannot be trained for hunting/war" makes it better by far. Also on the link from 'trained' points to Kennel which isn't even used any more save for taming vermin, and should probably direct to Animal trainer now.--L3tuc3 13:58, 6 July 2012 (UTC)
