Revision as of 07:09, 20 September 2010
As you're plumbing the depths, you notice something out of the corner of your trained Turtle Tamer's eye -- an orangutan!
Just kidding -- it's a turtle. A turtle floating motionless in the eerie stillness of the deep. How does it do that?
| Tame it |
- Without the Fishy effect active:
You swim toward the turtle, but clumsily, disturbing the water and scaring him off in a big blast of bubbles.
- With Fishy but without a Grinning Turtle/Syncopated Turtle as your active familiar:
You swim toward the turtle, disturbing the water betwixt you. It opens its eyes, turns to see you, and then disappears out of sight in a violent burst of bubbles.
Man. That thing moved pretty quick, especially for a turtle!
- With Fishy and a Grinning Turtle/Syncopated Turtle but without a turtling rod equipped:
You send <Name> out in front of you to distract the turtle while you approach it from behind.
You creep up (or whatever you call the swimming version of creeping) and try to grab it, but it freaks out when you get a couple of feet from it, and disappears out of sight in a burst of bubbles.
- With Fishy, a Grinning Turtle/Syncopated Turtle, and a turtling rod equipped:
You send <Name> out in front of you to distract the turtle while you approach it from behind.
You swim up behind it and deftly subdue it with your turtling rod. Its bizarre buoyancy makes it hard to handle, but you manage.
 | You acquire an item: ballast turtle |
You send <Name> out in front of you to distract the turtle while you approach it from behind.
You swim up behind it and deftly subdue it with your turtling rod. Its bizarre buoyancy makes it hard to handle, and you demonstrate this by dropping it almost immediately. Shucks.
Occurs in The Sea with Eau de Tortue.
Notes
- This encounter does not consume an adventure.
- Only three ballast turtles may be tamed per day, across all zones of The Sea.
- Additional taming attempts result in dropping it almost immediately. Shucks.
