Did you have red covered?

Can you explain how you are trying to tame the sheep? Here's how's I'm doing it. My modified UA is 27 and STR and AGI are @ 30. What I do:

Wherever your farm/village/hearthfire/ecoterrorist hideout is and prepare a hitching post nearby (hopefully in claimed and/or palisaded territory). I recommend choosing an enclosed area, because
you will have to recapture the animal during taming sessions and you don't want it wandering off or having it killed/stolen.

1. Find a clover and use it on wild animal, in this case a mouflon.
2. (optional but recommended) use a Stone Axe or other sharp tool to cut off a piece of wool from the mouflon.
3. Use rope on mouflon after you (successfully feed it the clover.
4. Walk the mouflon back to your home base and use the rope on the hitching post (the rope used to make the hitching post does not count).
5. Place the rope on a nearby container.
6. Wait until the animal takes a "combat stance".
7. Engage the animal in UA combat, but click the red twin swords icon to turn into a blue sword/olive branch icon, indicating a yield.
8. Play defense/use weak attacks until the animal yields; if the animal yields at the same time you have yield toggled, combat ends and a yellow number in indicate progress (mine in now 75).
**DO NOT** attack the animal after it has yielded or you will lose tameness or risk killing it.
9. Use a rope (presumabily you will have it handy beforehand) on the animal and reattach it to a hitching post (see steps 3 and 4).
10. Repeat steps 6-9 until animal is tamed.

When the taming is almost completed, you will want to construct an feeding through/roundpole fence for the animal. You can put clovers and dandelions in the feeding trough if your farming isn't
sufficient; I fed my first chicken coop my garbage q1 starter crops... they went from q10 to q1. Prepare accordingly.

Note, tame animals use Farming as opposed to a Wild Animals survival. Until you get your Farming up, you will want to use the wool for mundane things (i.e. bandages/string), and continue to
carry clovers with you for better HQ wool.

Protips: Make sure to have several medical supplies like Stinging Poultice, Gauze, and Leeches to fix any wounds that occur from taming the animal. Stinging Poultice needs hides (usually rabbit hides), and
for gauze you need Wool from wild mouflons and Basic Mechanics for a loom, so you should be able to handle rabbits and wild mouflons before trying to tame one.

That's because sheep are smarter than noobs.

Yes I did all that, the sheep was at 75%, and there are many other animals I got to 40-75%. For some reason this sheep just was maaahd at me and decided it was nice to hit me for 115 through 3 defenses, then continue to hit me for 60 hhp after I Was knocked out.

I remember being hit for something like that once, but I tried to run away and close the pen I had it in. Do you have yield toggled when you start combat?

No I did not, should I have?

[raybon256]

There is a circular icon on the Upper Right part of the screen when you're combat flag is toggled. One sword represents you, the other is your opponent. Clicking it will turn your sword into an olive branch; if your opponent does the same, combat ceases. A red icon with two crosses swords indicate you are both fighting; a blue icon with a sword and an olive branch indicates someone has yielded -- when hunting it means an animal is fleeing. When you begin taming combat, mouse over the red icon and click it to turn it blue. Then just fight until a yellow number pops on top of the animal. Me, I just defended and attacked when all my defenses were up (yes im still a newb).
