Taming is not going well

[karmov]

I'm trying to tame an auroch. Things have started out well. I followed the guide at http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5786&p=65688 which was super helpful up until I quelled the beast successfully and now have the thing following me. I've waited well past the 10 minutes suggested and the thing hadn't attacked me. I tried to re-engage it on my own and I got full combat advantage, fanned flames to 0, but quell the best won't work on this animal now. I'm assuming it's because it's already quelled.

I tried walking away from its herd and re-engaging the herd. Same result, quell the beast doesn't work. Did I do something wrong? Did re-engaging early mess things up? Anything I can do now or am I stuck with an animal I can't tame?

after 4 times trying it, it worked with me. make sure you keep the auroch fenced

I ended up de-aggroing him (was worried he would disengage if I walked too far away from him, but that didn't happen). He's ready to fight again

From my experience once you engage it in combat yourself after the first quell, you cannot tame it anymore unless you reset it completely. The best way is to tame them in a post cage with a diagonal gap so you can hit it in melee. Then do not let it out until it engage you again by itself(take about 15 minutes watch a movie or something). I have to say taming is extremely badly done at the moment, its boring and take a uninterrupted session of more than an hour or you lose all progress. No player skill needed either, just patience and some knowledge of game mechanic.
