Epic Breed

Requirements: Have Woof kill a monsterReward: Woof starts with +1 AGI and +1 STA (stacking with Rare Breed), and learns Strong Will at level 6Difficulty: HighPriority: HighNote that all dog-related heritages are only relevant to Woof. They cannot be earned by, and cannot benefit, any other dog you encounter.Woof only needs to land the finishing blow; apart from that, you can contribute as much damage as you like.You will need as low a level as possible, and as many as possible of the following, in very rough descending order of priority:- Amulet of Ghost Form- Plate mail/plate helm (the former is more important)- Ring of Immunity- Ring of Fortitude- Weapon with a disabling enchant (e.g. paralysis); if you don't have an Amulet of Ghost Form, make sure this is a ranged weapon- Wand of Crippling- Wand of Shifting or Scroll of Teleport (if you don't have the amulet)- Disabling poisons (e.g. paralysis)- Healing magic- Buff magic- Plenty of food (just in case)You don't need them all; I've done this with just the plate mail, Amulet of Ghost Form and disabling enchant (which only triggered once anyway). Make sure Woof is at least at the same level as you, and at full health.Now go stand in a spider web. Spiders will start spawning periodically. If you have an Amulet of Ghost Form, feel free to kill them yourself; otherwise you'll have to leave them to Woof (unless you have arrows to spare). This is a good way of leveling up Woof, although you run the risk of getting him killed by poison if you're unlucky. You may have to keep doing this for a very long time, periodically stepping out in order to heal any damage. Make sure to tell Woof to follow you again after every kill so he doesn't wander off. And try to stay fully satiated so that you can heal at least a few hit points when you're not attacking during the coming battle.Eventually, a mamalob will spawn. It will spawn at the higher of your and Woof's levels, meaning that if you're low-level, it will be weaker than any monster you normally encounter, weak enough for the above items to make a big difference.Get out of the web if you can, or fire at the mamalob from within if you can't. Apply any poisons and other debuffs you have access to. Make sure you stay next to it so as to soak as much damage as possible. Use V to bring up its health bar, and hit it for as much damage as you can without risking killing it. If you have anything that can heal Woof, use it as appropriate. Woof will periodically get scared off, but he should come back quickly.This strategy is likely to take multiple tries, because Woof is fragile and is likely to die from poison or the mamalob's sheer damage output a few times. But it still gives you much better odds than trying to keep Woof alive until you encounter a monster normally, and then trying to help Woof beat it an a straight-up fight.
