Wartales – How to Capture the Enemy

Tips to Capture the Enemy

Have Rope (for animals) or chains (for people, can be bought at jails) and drop their health low. The lower the better, it increases your chances of success. After you get them low, bring a second party member up to him while the first is engaged with the target and you will see an option to KO the poor sap.

Addendum: The health level needs to be below 50% of the enemy’s starting health. After that, as stated above, the chance to capture goes up the lower the health gets.

When trying to capture enemies, it’s better to target those that are close to your own level. These enemies have more health, which makes them less likely to die quickly. Be careful when using mercenaries that have a high chance of landing critical hits. These powerful attacks might accidentally kill the enemy instead of weakening them for capture.

Lastly to capture the enemy with the second mercenary: In order to use the “Capture” skill, your mercenary must not have already used their basic attack. Special attacks are fine, but the “Capture” skill counts as a basic attack.
