How to Capture Humans

Weaken Them and Throw Sphere

Human Capture

You can catch humans similar to Pals by weakening their HP or inflicting status ailments before throwing Spheres at them. Humans will try to escape, but you can run or use a mount to catch up.

Capturing Humans is More Challenging

Capturing humans have a lower success rate compared to capturing Pals of the same level. Make capturing easier by using multiple high-quality Spheres or by targeting lower-level humans.

Attacking Merchants or Vigilantes is Considered a Crime

Attacking Merchants or Vigilantes is considered a crime and will trigger other people to attack you. Make sure your level is high enough before confronting them or target isolated humans to avoid getting overwhelmed.

Rewards for Capturing Humans

Capture Merchants to Buy and Sell at Any Time

Merchant

Merchants are the best humans to capture because you can summon them anytime you want to buy or sell somethign. Civilians or criminals aren't as useful, making it more efficient to focus on Merchants.

Sell to Black Marketeers

Black Market

Humans can be sold to Black Marketeers, just like Pals. If you have humans that you don't need, try selling them to earn gold.

Not Good for Work or Combat

Stats

Humans are not very efficient workers and fighters. While they can perform some tasks in both work and combat, their efficiency is significantly lower compared to Pals.

Capturing Them Doesn't Grant Bonus EXP

Experience

Capturing humans grants experience, but bonuses stop after capturing them at least 10 times.
