How do you tame beefalo?


Recommended Posts

@asparagus says that isn't implemented yet, you can't tame a beefalo right now, you can feed them but you only gain time, the whip is just a special weapon and don't help.

I tried to feed them with tons of grass and vegetables but seems like asparagus is right, maybe when the devs come back they will add some way to tame beefalo

Feeding them for 20 days is supposed to tame them.  Well I gave it a try, and after 30 days of feeding, then saving, shutting down and restarting the server, the beefalo did change it's appearance to the "pudgy" disposition... but it didn't have the sanity aura.  So that confirms it isn't implemented yet.

 

Even then, only the docile disposition bucks less, but it still bucks sometimes.  And I don't see much use for Ornery beefalo.  They're expensive to feed (they eat 2-3 dragon pies or 35 butterflies per day), they're more trouble to heal than replacing a suit of armor, and their damage isn't that much better than a ham bat.  And they'll buck you in the middle of combat.  Riding docile beefalo might speed crossing long distances, but they're more expensive than cobblestones.  And that's supposing there aren't any wormholes or trips through the caves along the way.  And for the food and grass it takes to domesticate a pudgy beefalo for a small sanity aura, you could just make straw rolls, sleep at night and eat a little extra each day.  Domesticated beefaloes are white elephants at the moment.
