Mules vs. Nobles: Which is better?

[Devlin]

1 mule > 1 noble.
5 nobles > 5 mules.

Mules: Mount, has a backpack, are poison resistant, and have firebreath/magery.
Nobles: Mount, pack instinct, are insanely fast, and have firebreath/magery.

Pack Instinct: certain types of animals do more damage together. When 2 targets are on the SAME monster, there is a 25% dmg bonus; 3 = 50%; 4 = 75%; 5 = 100%.

Start off with 1 mule, farm with it until you can buy another... Then do it again. After 3 mules, consider getting a 110 taming powerscroll and 4 nobles. Maxed nobles are generally cheaper than mules, and fare much better in packs. The ideal set up is 1 mule, 4 nobles. This lets you ride the mule, use the backpack feature, and have 4 nobles to run around shredding everything.

ill move this to the wiki and spruce it up a bit... just couldnt figure out where to put it and the main page is far too cluttered at the moment for my liking.

could be good to include further information about pets.. as in

melee type - (farm animals, cranes, etc ) low taming and lore good for new players
imprisoned pet accent helpers (hellhounds/icehounds)
life drain farmers (cusidhe)

give the full spectrum of options out there for all to see
