Skills

Most Turtle Tamer skills are learned from The Brotherhood of the Smackdown. The skills from levels 1-4 cost 200, 800, 1800, and 3200 Meat respectively to learn, while all higher level skills cost 1,000 per level. All Turtle Tamers begin with the free skill Patience of the Tortoise. Completing the Spookyraven Manor Quest grants you the Spectral Snapper skill.

14 Hero of the Half-Shell Your mastery of shields has elevated you to hero-like status amongst your tortoise brethren. Your skills have the beauty and balance of a Renaissance painting. As such, whenever you take damage in combat, your Muscle will be used to reduce the damage you take instead of Moxie, whenever you are wielding a shield.

NOTE: This will only take effect if your Muscle is higher than your Moxie.
Damage Reduction normally influenced by Moxie is based on Muscle when wearing a shield (Unless your Moxie is higher) Passive N/A
15 Tao of the Terrapin Like hippies, turtles live in their clothes. Unlike hippies, turtles' clothes provide a hard protective shell for their sensitive innards. Well, unlike hippies who are only on day fifteen of a new outfit. You have sufficiently pondered the mystery of the turtle, whose clothes are both home and protection, to understand how to imbue your clothing with the same properties. As such, any hat or pants you equip will be doubled in power. Now go take a shower, hippy. Doubles power of hats and pants for the purposes of calculating Damage Absorption Passive N/A

Notes

  • Turtle Tamers -- and only Turtle Tamers -- can combine Head-, Shield-, and/or Kneebutt into one attack, with all the effects of each part of the combo. The MP cost for any combo equals the individual cost of all skills involved plus 1. This is affected only once by Skill MP Cost Modifiers.
  • Turtle Tamers have an innate 50% bonus to their maximum HP.
  • Turtles Tamers have the ability to tame turtles.

Buffs

  • Turtle Tamer buffs must be cast using a totem -- the totem used determines the number of adventures granted per cast:
  • If a specific totem is wielded, it will be used to cast all buffs. Otherwise, the best totem in the player's inventory will be automatically selected.
