Animal taming - stars

[No Guts No Glory]

If you tame some animal with star, will it keep the star after being tamed? And if you reproduce such animal, can it spawn more animals with stars?

I honestly never saw star boar.

Wolfs can have stars tho, and their damage and health increase quite alot with stars, making them possibly even useful companions.

it is random but I have seen a 2 star boar

If you tame a 1 star boar, it will give birth to 1 star piggies, so I guess the same applies to 2 stars boar. So you can tame a 1 or 2 stars, make it reproduce then butcher every boar below this level.

Can no star animal produce star animal?

You throw mushrooms on ground for boars to tame, right?

Or berries, or carrots. Probably turnips and potatoes, too.

Have them chase you into a pen first. Although we had a blast rounding up our first tamed boar by chasing him with torches.

Hmmm, interesting. I wonder if one food increased their tame time over another.

well i trapped a 2 stars boar and i throw carrots, mushrooms, etc
but the boar never ate it and ended despawning and respawning in the original place :S

[Wegadin]

Oh, how odd. Did you kite/chase him from super far away?

Is it possible to feed normal boar so it gets stars ?
Boars of mine are eating carrots as void yet remain low tier.

They get a bit moody with fire near them, so keep them a bit away from those while taming.

Just tamed a 1 star boar and a 2 star boar. Both of them in the pen together (fed them raspberries) made a 1 star piglet and a 2 star piglet. Killed the 1 stars after they became adults and left two 2 stars in the pen now all the piglets are born as 2 stars.

Seems like star lvl also affects birthrate as the one + two star had 2 piglets (they had 2 piglets two times) where the two 2 stars seem to always have 3 (four different sets of 3).

No Idea if what you feed them plays any part in anything. Maybe different food makes them become tame faster or maybe it makes the piglets grow faster or if you have a 1/2 star mismatch in the parents maybe different food increases the odds of the mismatch breeding 2 star instead of 1's.

Baiting them is for the weak. (Stands on top of a pen wall and harpoons a wolf to forcibly reel him into the enclosure.)
