No Animal Lore Gains

Honkwomp

Been really tough   I started 90 and have worked hard at gaining Taming to 120 and got vet to 108 but lore has been very slow and I am only at 102.8  So I decided to start grinding it directly and was told that every vet attempt gets a chance to gain lore.  Well, I have nearly 300 vets and I have gotten exactly .2 gains.  Any ideas?  Even with a boat moving, does not see to increase gains

Get a taming mastery

Taming mastery doesn’t seem to raise Lore anymore (at least this was my experience on a recent tamer using a level 1 taming mastery to raise taming skill).

taming mastery doesnt work for lore unfortunately. lore is pretty tedious, get a pet and make a macro to throw a couple magic arrows at it then vet it and get ready to replay it a whole bunch of times.

Thanks, Okay that was the method I was using North_Ls.  I specifically bought the expansion that has mastery in it, but that does not get you any lore.
Do you still need 8x8  I thought I read somethere that you no longer need movement

North_LS

nope, 8x8 is a thing of the past - all anti-macro code has been removed from the game. I spent a few long hours on a boat when i first came back a few months ago trying to find gain runs before i did a search on why it wasnt working and figured that little gem out.

If you want to actively train vet/animal lore, killing the Troglodytes in the Painted Caves works pretty well. 

They will give you good amounts of gold, fame, karma, honor, Spellweaving scrolls, and most importantly bandages!
