    I just took my level 15 troub to Nektulos to capture some aquatic (crabs) because I knew I could hit them with an arrow and capture them before they do any serious damage. What I wasn't expecting was that I only had to catch 3 or 4. Was this always the mechanic? Or is it a bug?


    *edit*
    Just took another character out for it and see that the number required was reduced from 11 to 3. YAY! Huge time saver.

    Wow. Very nice. Now if they would just allow us to select which monster we want to hunt. It gets old deleting the quest and getting it again until you get something you can capture without killing it. I also think just using the cage on something should capture it. This would also fix the issue of trying not to kill something while capturing it since you have to get aggro the way it works now. These two suggestions would really make it much easier to play.

    Probably, but I had forgotten that there was even going to be a patch until I saw the letter with the coin, LOL.
