Message: <blockquote data-quote="frankthedm" data-source="post: 3295462" data-attributes="member: 1164">3x3 is huge. A Druid gets Wild shape (Huge) at 15th level. Once the druid hits 8th, a lot of druid builds fully intend on staying in wildshape for the entire day. The only time they switch back is when the DM is on the ball and does not let them speak with the other players to convey important information. They fit in more places than an ogre would. And those big bruisers seen pretty dungeon portable. I personally love the imagery of a dire wolf mount. All it takes is a few years of down time to get them to go from fluffy puppy to lean mean stable-boy eating machines.<a href="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/skills/handleAnimal.htm" target="_blank">Handle animal </a> Rear a Wild Animal [DC15 + HD of animal] To rear an animal means to raise a wild creature from infancy so that it becomes domesticated. A handler can rear as many as three creatures of the same kind at once. A successfully domesticated animal can be taught tricks at the same time it’s being raised, or it can be taught as a domesticated animal later.Combat Riding (DC 20): An animal trained to bear a rider into combat knows the tricks attack, come, defend, down, guard, and heel. Training an animal for combat riding takes six weeks. You may also “upgrade” an animal trained for riding to one trained for combat riding by spending three weeks and making a successful DC 20 Handle Animal check. The new general purpose and tricks completely replace the animal’s previous purpose and any tricks it once knew. Warhorses and riding dogs are already trained to bear riders into combat, and they don’t require any additional training for this purpose.</blockquote>
