How do i teach my creature to learn the megablast miracle? He only learn 1% all the time! He doesnt learn forward at all...
 
You don't want him to learn it saps too much energy from him, even a full sized full fat creature will struggle to cast 2 MB in a row and till be useful until rested and fed.
.
If you want to try out a creature  with MBlast just use a mind file  of an existing  creature like Fear out of The Valley of the Fear by Fat Omen.
.
Or to train your own creature fairly quickly.
With a new creature.
Take him to a Training map.
Only show him  the MB miracle.
Block him in his pen with a rock/rocks and wait.
He will eventually be able to free himself  by self learning the MB that he was shown.

You'll traumatise the poor thing that way.  :shocked

There are other methods. The creature teacher for a start. But it's very dangerous for a creature to have knowledge of all miracles without knowing where and when  to use them.

There's also a clan trick which involves the creature changer program and the creature breeder so you'll need to be on land 1.

First teach your creature all  miracles you want him to know to a small percentage.
Then go to the creature breeder and change him for the Leopard.
Now go into one of the first screens to get into a multi-player game. (I forget which one).
Alt-tab the game to minimise it, open the creature changer program and change your creature to the ape.
Open the game, get out of Multi-player and back to your creature on Land 1. Which will should now be and ape.
Repeat the process until he's learnt all of the miracles to 100%. Then change to the creature of your choice.

I am a big foggy on the steps so it might be wise to back up your creature's mind file before you start. Also in the initial step, don't just show him the miracles, but try to show when and where to used them also.

I used this on one creature and showed (not taught) him all of the storm miracles. One of the first things he did was to create a storm extreme. Then he walked into it and got killed by it. Stupid creature. :rolleyes

But wont him instead cast fireballs?

Not if the only miracle he's been shown is Mega Blast.  So long as he knows some small percentage of that miracle and no other aggressive miracle, he'll try to use the one trick he knows to get out of the pen.  Better make sure he's well fed though :;): .

But my creature already known some aggressive miracles, Fireball, Lightning and Fireball increase.
 
Then it's not a good idea since he'll use them instead.

Mind you I did that once with a creature who knew lightning. The first thing he did was to cast a lightning miracle at the rocks. Which electrified everything about him. The rocks, the pen as well as the temple. It also scared the daylights out of him since he just stood there shuttering from fright. He never did attempt to use lightning after that when I blocked him in.

Thank you all for the tip, But i know how to train him the megablast miracle, Its VERY SLOW but works :D
 
I finally taught a creature Megablast. (An Ape/Chimp, so still got to get my leopard from 7% to 100%). I found that the trick where you give the creature the bubble instead of showing him the miracle seemed to work at double speed, though perhaps that is just because he didn't keep setting fire to himself by walking into a smoking crater and needing healing. I also taught him to be lazy and greedy, took him to the Defeat Another God map, and succeeded in an almost immediate win. My creature kept healing himself as he was attacked, then Megablasted the temple a couple of times, getting rid of worshipers, and took naps between Megablasts and eating anything edible nearby.

Oddly, my creature's alignment is .2. Go figure.
