Familiars Wild

Steps
The quest will ask you to capture 11 monsters/creatures/etc., from one of the following categories below, in an empty familiar cage that you will receive from the Steward. Below are some suggestions for monsters that should update the quest (this is not a complete list).


 * Amphibians:
 * Turtles (bestiary) and frogs (bestiary).
 * Examples include muck toads in the Peat Bog or small sand tortoises in Outpost of the Overlord.
 * Aquatic creatures:
 * Crocodiles (bestiary) and crabs (bestiary).
 * Examples include coastal crabs in Queen's Colony, A Nerius crab on the beach in Nektulos Forest and brine sifters in Sunken City.
 * Note: while fish and octopus are classified as Aquatic in some listings (such as EQ2 Zam's Bestiary), they will not update the quest.
 * Bats:
 * Creatures from the bat category (bestiary).
 * Examples include stygian screechers, and shale bats in the Caves. (Shale bats in the Caves work if you can make them live long enough.) **Echobreath in Darklight Wood will not update the quest; named creatures are sometimes too powerful to be trapped in the cage.
 * Bears:
 * Creatures from the bear category (bestiary).
 * Examples include briarpaws in Enchanted Lands, giant kodiaks in Antonica, glacier bears in Everfrost, wilderbears in Outpost of the Overlord or bear cubs in Oakmyst Forest.
 * Birds:
 * Hawks (bestiary), vulrich (bestiary) and ducks (bestiary).
 * Examples include A seaside falcon in Queen's Colony, A carrion hawk or A giant vulrich in the Commonlands and A rotbeak in Darklight Wood.
 * Boars:
 * Pigs (bestiary)
 * There are very few spawn locations for boars, so you may want to consider deleting the quest and requesting a new one after the ten minute quest reset time.
 * Note that boarfiends will not update the quest. Hellboars (bestiary) also do not appear to update the quest.
 * Examples include sick pigs in Village of Somborn, and the linked swines in Nektropos Castle. In Nektropos you will, however, have to zone out and back in repeatedly to obtain enough spawns for the 11 kills. Note that the single triple-up swine cannot be caged, and the Swine Lord will not update the quest; the encounter must be the version with 2 or 3 linked swine.
 * Bovids:
 * Cows (bestiary), deer (bestiary), sheep (bestiary) and camels (bestiary).
 * Examples include thicket deer in Enchanted Lands, grove deer in Queen's Colony, A mature antelope in The Thundering Steppes and mith deer in the Commonlands.

Hints and tips

 * To capture a monster, you need to be hated by the encounter, but you must not kill the encounter before you have used the cage.
 * Many heroic encounters, raid encounters and non-attackable NPCs (such as the pigs in Windstalker Village) may not be caged. Some of these monsters may nevertheless display the quest icon (sack) on their names.
 * If caging a low level monster, you may want to engage the encounter with your auto attack turned off (or not wielding weapons), with an ability that does not deal damage such as:
 * Inquisitor:
 * Warden: and
 * Shadowknight:
 * Berserker:
 * Guardian:
 * Paladin:
 * Warlock:
 * Wizard:
 * Coercer:
 * Illusionist:
 * Conjuror:
 * Necromancer:
 * Fury:
 * Templar:
 * Defiler:
 * Mystic: and  for less cool down wait time.
 * Channeler:
 * Dirge:
 * Troubador:
 * Assassin:,  and  for less cool down wait time.
 * Ranger:, , , and
 * Brigand: and  for less cool down wait time.
 * Swashbuckler: and  for less cool down wait time.
 * Beastlord: and  for less cool down wait time.

Most of the familiars have some damage proc, so it's better to unsummon your familiar and remove all proc items from your gear before you start caging creatures.
