How to Tame Monkeys in Soulmask

Monkeys are among the animals in Soulmask that you want to have around your base. They have immense contributions, whether in producing feces for farming or collecting early-game fruits for planting. Feces work as fertilizers for crops, while fruits are essential not only for food but crafting other essential items. Fortunately, in Soulmask, players can easily capture these fun companions. This guide will show you how to tame monkeys in Soulmask. Let's get to it!

How to Capture Monkeys

Similar to other animals In the Soulmask world, monkeys are caught in traps. Making these traps are easy and we will explain how to set them up in the later section of this post. But first, follow these steps to capture monkeys in the Soulmask world.

1. Head to your building workshop and craft small traps.
2. Go to regions with monkeys (rainforest.)
3. Set up some of the traps in the location where you spot monkeys.
4. Interact with the trap’s inventory and add nuts to the trap (other fruits like bananas are okay, but nuts are the preferred option.)
5. At this stage, you can either hide from the traps and wait for the monkeys to enter them or place the traps on their pathway.
6. When a monkey enters the trap, interact with it and select (Monkey) Capture.
7. If you catch two monkeys, place one on your shoulders and carry the other one.
8. Once you get to your base, place them on the ground. Congratulations! You have tamed a monkey.

We will further explain some of the steps above, so you can understand them better and execute them effectively.

Crafting a Small Trap

As mentioned earlier, you will need small traps to capture monkeys. In the game, these traps are used to catch monkeys, and other small animals like parrots and turkeys. Before crafting them, players will have to unlock the crafting recipe for them at the Knowledge and Technology menu. This section is located under the Animal Breeding skill unit. However, unlocking it requires gamers to be at an Awareness level of 10 or higher. The materials for crafting this item include;

• Branch
• Small Rope
• Clay

Except for clay, these materials are easy to collect. Clay can be found in the areas that surround water bodies, like rivers and lakes. You only need a stone pickaxe to mine this item since they are usually found in veins. After acquiring the necessary materials, proceed to craft your small traps with them. Once you have these traps, proceed to the next phase, which is finding monkeys.

Finding Monkeys and Place the Traps

Now, monkeys can be found in the rainforest regions. They are usually in groups around a monkey nest. Some of the early fruits can be found here if you're lucky. To locate this nest, simply look for hollow tree stumps in the jungle or tree-heavy areas. A typical location to find monkeys is the main starting aisle, southwest of the Barbarian Claw Tribe or southwest of the Ancient Pyramid. Additionally, the Life Perception skill can help you detect if any of them is close by.

When you see them, place the traps beside them. After placing them, search for nuts by chopping hardwood trees. They will act as bait in your trap. Other fruits like bananas and pineapples can also be used. Simply press E on the trap to access its inventory, then move the nuts to the empty slot. You can either wait for the monkeys to enter the trap or keep readjusting its position till it catches the monkeys. A more effective method involves placing the traps on the walking path of the monkey.

Since they don't bite or resist, you can walk close to them and place the traps right in front of them. Once it catches monkeys, interact with the traps and collect its content. You have the option of carrying two monkeys when you place one of them on your shoulders.

How to Use Monkeys and Farm Fruits in Soulmask

After capturing the monkeys and taking them to your base, you can allow them to wander, and they won't run away. The next step is to use these monkeys and harvest fruits from different sources. To harvest more fruits, consider placing the monkeys in the jungle where you caught them. However, you will have to make a Monkey Storage Nest so your monkeys can store the fruits they collect from the jungle.

Building a Monkey Nest

Similar to traps, you can build a monkey nest after unlocking the recipe in the Knowledge and Technology menu. The materials required to build the nest include;

• 10x Log
• 10x Fiber
• Wild Fruit or 5xNut
• 10x thatch

After building the monkey nest, place it in your base and the monkeys will automatically store fruits and nuts for you. They will continuously work as long as there is food and water.

Activating Monkey Self-care

The last equipment needed at your base to help out with feeding and taking care of your monkeys is a feeding trough and chest. The feeding trough will allow your monkeys to feed. The chest, on the other hand, makes your monkey store the fruits directly there, and they won't eat from it as well.

Use Reliable Game Servers

To enjoy a smooth gaming experience while you explore the Soulmask world, consider using reliable servers. Scalacube is the number one server for your hosting needs. They have several amazing features, including a versatile storage capacity (players can choose between SSD and HDD storage.) But that is not all! There is also a 99.9% uptime and unlimited traffic, so you can access your favorite game conveniently.

Conclusion

Monkeys are necessary to farm fruits, which means you must try and capture these animals once your Awareness level reaches 10. To catch them is simple: craft a small trap, place it in jungle areas or where you notice a group of monkeys. Once your traps successfully catch monkeys, build a Monkey Storage Nest to store the fruits on your monkey farm. You can repeat this process over and over again, but remember that the game allows players to own only ten pets.
