How to tame monsters in Rune Factory 5

How to get your first Wooly.

In Rune Factory 5, you aren't going to be taking care of cows and chickens. Instead, you are going to be bringing monsters back from your journey to take their place. This system will likely be familiar to those who have played previous games in the Rune Factory series.

You gain the ability to catch monsters during the game's tutorial phase. By using this ability to cast your spell seal, you can get a monster like a Wooly to join your party easily. At this stage, this spell can help give you a small army of party members to take into the dungeon with you.

To get the monster to stay, you will need to give them gifts that they approve of. Monsters, just like the townsfolk, all have their gift preferences. Once you have gained a monster's trust, you can bring them back to your barn if you have one and start having them produce goods or provide a helping hand around your farm.

Keep in mind that there are also methods in the game like brushing and love weapons. We are still checking out just how effective these are. Keep in mind that some bosses do seem tameable, but they will likely require expansive items to bring home.

I start my day by exploring Teyvat in Genshin Impact and end it after reorganizing my apartment in Final Fantasy XIV. I am a diehard fan of N64 era games and will forever feel betrayed that Megaman Legends didn't finish. Outside of gaming, I have spend my time collecting manga, collecting anime figures, and watching anime with my naked cat.
