Dude I 100% lucked up on taming lox way early. We hadn’t even fought Bonemass yet. I scouted the Huge island solo. Spotted the telltale stone fingers of the Final boss spawn. Went ashore & ran to take the nearby skel keep on the edge of the plains/swamp. Then I poked outside in stealth in my full troll set. About 45+15=60 sneak. I managed to club a deathsquito out of the air as it attacked. So I come around a huge head-shaped rock, I’m picking cloudberries… and there are 2x2-Star Lox. I ran back & jumped atop the rock. Whew. Safe for now… But I never picked up the last cloudberry I picked. Just out of range for auto-loot. And I saw a heart fly up. Wth? So I threw my stack of cloudberries down between the 2 lox. I very nervously stayed there, sniping or smacking squitoes, enjoying my two bodyguards killing goblins… for 2 day cycles until they were mine. And then they popped a baby the next day… Now I have a tamed herd spread out all over the area, protecting my now moat & hoe unbreakable base. Taming ftw!
@@quicksandriggs Thanks. It was similar to how you did in this video, sneaking around the bushes behind them. Only mine was on a rock, accidental, and I was just Sure I was gonna respawn any second for nearly an hour, lol…
Plural for Lox: Loxen Plural for Fox is Foxes, Plural for Ox is Oxen. Given Lox are basically modified Ox, and pretty much same species in all regards, the plural for it should be the same as that of Ox, Loxen. (NB: In the Technology culture, such as hackers, networks of same operating systems are pluralised with 'en', such as a boxen of computer boxes, or VEXen). The plural Oxen was often used in reference of a 'team' of harnessed Ox. If the plural Loxen isn't used, then the default Loxes is most appropriate. (Given Lox don't pull anything in Valheim, and only ever used individually, there is no traditional 'team' of Lox. So the best plural should correctly be Loxes. But It's Valheim, and we are gamers, we love computers and games, and therefore should stick with the time honored tradition of use 'en': Loxen.
Thank you for your Lox taming and breeding video. I have tamed three Lox in the wild by throwing food at them and ran to a high point I built with the Hoe to build a small base and they have grown to a large herd now. I am having trouble taming three more Lox on a small Island and I moved my tame Lox over to the wild ones. It seems that tame Lox dont help tame wild Lox, have you found this??
I have also found that Fuling mobs can easily kill tame Lox with fire and repeated hits but two or more Lox easily kill Fuling mobs. So I think that I might ride about six or more upto a Fulling village to destroy it after I have dropped some Ooze Bombs in it to lower the Fuling's health and make it easy for the Lox to kill all the Fulings, Fuling Shamans and brutes. What this work, can you test this in a video please? The only problem with this idea is that Lox, however, have trouble dealing with Deathquitoes. Deathquistoes are too quick for the Lox to react to them and often get frighten then flee with the Deathquito repeatably stinging them. Lox can only kill them if the Deathquito unlucky enough to fly into the the Lox mouth or under them. I usually shoot or melee the Deathquitoes and leave the Fulings to the Lox. Have you foun dthis? I have been stung by a Deathquito while riding a Lox but if I stand up the Deathquito targets the Loz instead; Have you this too? Thank You for your Valheim video. CheersAndHappiness
True! I had a 3 fire village near my lox base. Once they bred a bunch & spread out, my 2 stars stomped the crap out of it. I drew the big dudes out by arrow snipes & he & his entourage got crushed by the several Lox in the area. Almost like I planned that. Lol. One guy waded in there and eventually got put down. I sniped a shaman to death from afar while they were all focused on that lox. Later another one of my lox got pissed and stomped the rest of the village to death. I had to snipe the tower dudes to barely save him. My hero.
@@cbs2273 Found. I was exploring around a stone fort. Skel fort. At night I went out in stealth and gathered some lox berries. I was startled by a lox near the bushes, and dropped a berry. Picked but missed? I lept up on the head shaped rock I had snuck around for the picking..., stealthed out (troll set) and got away from their sight range. They didn't attack, so I dropped a stack of berries which rolled down to them.
These pages should give you the breakdown of how to activate the console and spawn a lox. valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Developer_console valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Item_IDs
I started with two Lox and keep breeding them till my herd is now thirty. I let them roam around my base. They attack anything that spawns or travels into their area except wild Lox. Drop food between two hungry lox and they will both move to the food. Eating makes them happy and will heal them and since they are close to each one or both may get pregnant. You can also push them together so they breed. The babies do not eat but are easy to push. Try to keep them near adults so the adults will protect them. The babies are pretty fast. Their biggest threat are deathsquitos. Every once in awhile I will find the ones who have wandered a bit too far and saddle them and ride them back to the base. I f they get killed they leave meat and hide.
Yes, placing the saddle on a hotbar slot and using it while looking at the Lox equips the saddle, looking at the saddle and pressing Shift+E will remove it.
After tamed, how much food per day for the pair is required for them to breed? Using the sneaking and taming in the wild method, do you need to continue to feed them?
I tested quite a few times and was able to get babies with only 12m separation. The speed might go up however at 20m, so it could still be worth it to spread them out more!
Great info! Just a note: You can use a harpoon in FF (friendly fire) mode to harpoon a lox and drag it back to land if it jumps off and goes after a sea serpent. 🍻
@@JirocTheViking That makes much more sense! Obviously I'm not fully into the Hearth and Home mindset yet! Now that you have to turn that on to harpoon your pets, it's all clicking for me. :P Sorry for the confusion!
If you do not have friendly fire on, then it should not damage you, It should however damage any structure near it. I have not tested this recently, but that is how things worked when I played last.
YES they destroy all structures with their stomping..but i tell you the satisfaction of being in the middle of a herd of tame lox when the bat raid occurs is worth it. Just move to a spot away from the fences, workbenches etc lol They are amazing killers :)
the plural of lox in loxen and its my fav tamable animal in the game before hearth and home me and my friend used to do lox rodeo without a saddle because that didnt exist yet
@@quicksandriggs im doing it, sailing to the plain and... a herd of lox saved me and the meadow from tar slimes, one of them escape and now I have it in a pit in the meadow after it never stay to feed in the plains. The floors didnt work for me, maybe I make the hole too small so it avoid stepping on the flooring but well.. it enter the pit to kill me and cant get out now. Just need to do the 30 minutes waiting, this remind me of ark lol. And I got it... dunno if I should bring it to main island without saddle.
@@RoseDragoness Lol! Sounds like a memorable journey! I would definitely try to get a saddle, they won’t follow you, so transport without it would be very difficult. There is one other way to transport them without saddle, but it might be spoilery, if you haven’t already discovered it.
@@quicksandriggs using the harpoon thing? Anyway, after 4 hours I get the lox home from one island to another.. journey indeed is memorable. I only have Karve and the lox sat above a cart, add with a lot of run and push. She keep bobs up and down on high speed and eventually the cart broke and it seems she is damaging the boat. After crossing the ocean and get to main continent, I decide to stop near darkforest to repair boat (bad decision) and that cause a series of lox argo to everything and have to push her back to the boat. She even once decide to move around and not letting me get to the boat ladder! We got to home's beach and.. Eikthyr (I have beat this one in other world) calls the forest to attack us. Lox wipe them clean, including several trees. After that, a matter of more pushing and now she is secured behind wall and moat-- I think she won't use her stomp since she can't reach any attackers if there are hostiles ;3 . Her name is now Loxita. I assumes the saddle is locked behind plain progression, I am still at copper. Why I am doing this? I just think the lox is so cute and I want one as a pet. Thanks again for the guide, can't do this feat without it, already liked and subscribed.

I have not tested using tamed Lox to help with wild Lox, but I can check and see if it makes a difference.
Happy Lox family!
Loxen, absolutely Loxen
I wonder if the devs are gonna add a lox cart like the one haldor the merchant has. That would definetly make the lox a whole lot usefull
That would be a good addition!

When I get time, I can check how well Lox can combat the other enemies in the Plains and how to best use them!

If lox kills serpents, I can make a serpent farming grinder on shore. Even more so if ballistas are added.
can you take the saddles on and off the lox?
Yes, placing the saddle on a hotbar slot and using it while looking at the Lox equips the saddle, looking at the saddle and pressing Shift+E will remove it.
@@quicksandriggs ty
I plurar Lox as Loxes
After tamed, how much food per day for the pair is required for them to breed?
Using the sneaking and taming in the wild method, do you need to continue to feed them?
I believe each piece of food should last 10min, so two pieces of food every 10min should keep them breeding.
What plants can they eat outside their habitat
Based on my testing at the time the video was made, they only eat food from the Plains.
B. Its just feels right.

Tame Loxes really are a great addition to the game
Can a tame lox damage you or your structures when it attacks another creature that's near you or your structures?
