This is a list of all abilities in the four categories available through Animal Training. The pet’s creature classification will determine which items on the list are available to a particular pet. In addition only creatures from Tokuno may train Bushido or Ninjitsu, only those with positive karma (determined by the karma of their owner) may train chivalry.
Note: Parry Skill
Pets do not show parry skill until achieving 100 wrestle skill. Therefore until this level is reached parry does not appear on the ‘increase combat skill caps’ list and the magical ability ‘Battle Defense’ does not appear on the ‘Magical Abilities’ list.
