Cow

Where it lives

The chance that a stretch of land has one, by land:

Animals never appear close to where the world began, or inside a village. Cows graze in the open. They look up as you come near and trot off if you come closer.

Taming

Make a Cow Treat on the TREATS tab of a crafting table in a Goddess's land, from 5 Grain, 5 Turnips or 5 any grass, each with 1 Egg. Carry it, walk up slowly, and give it the treat with E. One treat is enough. See Taming.

As a companion

The bruiser: it lowers its head and charges enemies, knocking them over and back, and nothing knocks it back. Once a day, when your stamina is below 60% and it is following you close by out of a fight, it gives you warm milk that restores 25% of your stamina.

Its numbers at level 1 and level 20, with STRENGTH 4, VITALITY 4 and WITS 5 and no traits, talents or gear:

It has five talents of its own to learn (see Talents), and its own gear: the Juggernaut's Plate (see Companion Gear).

Riding

With the Saddle talent (offered from level 3) you can ride it. It carries you 30% faster at rank I, 45% at rank II and 55% at rank III. See Riding.

At home

In your herd it charges enemies that come into her land. It gives Milk: 1 to 2 each batch, a batch every 1 day (in the game), with up to 3 batches waiting. Happiness changes the wait: see The Herd.

Hunting

Killing one teaches you 22 Health experience (see Stats), always the same whatever your level.

When hunted

It lets go of 7 Earth and 4 Water spirits.

Experience: Health 22.
