A boar is one of many different kinds of wild animals in the game. Boars also stand out as being one of the tougher creatures due to their aggressive nature and the likelihood of encountering them on forest terrain. Fortunately, boars are notably slower than most other animals as their fastest movement speed is somewhat slower than a player's running speed, making it possible to outrun them given enough time and stamina. They sometimes will attack you and kill you while you are unconscious. To get to you, boars will destroy any objects obstructing their path with lower than Soak 25, meaning only [[Palisade]]s and [[Brickwall]]s stop boars from chasing you.

The quality of all boar materials ([[Raw Hide]], [[Boar Meat|Meat]], [[Intestines]], [[Bone Material|Bones]]/[[Boar Tusk|Teeth]]) is equal to Boar Level*8. Raw Hide, Intestines, and Meat are softcapped[http://ringofbrodgar.com/wiki/Quality#Skill_values] by Survival and your carving tool. Bones are only softcapped[http://ringofbrodgar.com/wiki/Quality#Skill_values] by Survival.

Finally, boars may be [[Taming|tamed]] to become [[Pig|domesticated pigs]]. Unlike other tamable animals, boars may attack you again immediatelly after succesful taming attempt, without 10 minutes delay. With high cooldown after using Quell the Beast and reset initiative points you need somewhere to run - either shallow water, boat or palisade gate.

== Combat Behavior ==

Boars will attack with a stomp when their attack meter is high enough. They will also use a move that will give them initiative points and another that will fill both attack and defense meter. Sometimes they will use a special move that will shift the balance towards their favor by one if they have enough initiative points. If their advantage gets high enough, boars will start using a move that will rapidly increase their attack and defense meter (indicated by a throbbing heart).<br />
<br />

== How to combat them ==

Use dash to counter against the defense drain and side step each time they use the special move to shift balance in their favor. Alternatively, you can simply try to use opportunity knocks a few times before hitting them to undo the initiative gain and damage them.

If the boar starts gaining too much advantage over you, try to use opportunity knocks a few times followed by a valorous strike to return advantage back to 0.

If things go too badly, try to find waters or a house to retreat towards to get out of their attack range. Boars move a bit slower than running speed, so you should be able to outrun them provided your stamina can hold.

Boars are able to destroy [[Roundpole Fence]]s so it is not advisable to use them for escape.

It should be noted that when the boar's health begins to fall past a lower level it will turn passive and attempt to flee.

==Tips==

It has been mentioned that boars are one of the few animals which run slower than a Hearthling's third speed several times. Use this to your advantage if you need to flee from them or when trying to hunt them. If they begin to run away from you, you can punch them from behind for maximum damage, even with no red bar. For an easy kill against high levels boars, sling rocks at them from a boat, and then when they start to run you can hop out and chase them down.

*Also, boars cannot travel past cliffs, or break palisades.

Legacy:In-game time

[[File:Placeholder|right|300px]] Every real-life hour is 3 hours in-game

Therefore, every 8 real-life hours is equivalent to an in-game day, and a real-life day is 3 in-game days.

56hrs irl = 1wk in game (useful for wine making)

The ability to stake a claim on land, making it and everything on it your property. This includes the inside of mines, and cabins.

==How to Acquire==
To stake a claim, you need the [[Yeomanry]] skill.

To build a stake claim, navigate to {{Template:Key|1 = A}}dventure > Stake {{Template:Key|1 = C}}laim.

==Notes==
*The claim starts of as a 5x5 square around the totem. You can expand your claim at 10 [[LP]] per square. This is done by increasing the dimensions of the claim (north, east, south, west); you cannot add individual squares.

*You may only own one claim, but you can at any time declaim your area. This will refund your LP used and allow you to place a new claim. You do not need to repurchase the Yeomanry skill.
*The person who starts building the claim owns it, not the one who finishes it.
*Claim stakes do NOT decay. They also can NOT be destroyed with the vandalism skill. You have to resort to trespassing and theft to get something useful from a forsaken claim.
*Your claim can be declaimed by the lawspeaker of the village if it is covered by the village claim.
*Claims are inherited by the decedents of a dead character. The area covered by the claim is '''NOT''' reduced after [[death]], unlike skills and LP.
*You '''CAN''' change peoples permissions on your land by changing there chat colour.
