I don't especially like the recent developments on Next Island that gradually loses its magic and its character and begins to resemble more and more Arkadia. I am not a fan either of these robots that appeared on the planet recently, as I find them rather cheaply designed. But, after the mess that was created some weeks ago, I went to Next Island because I wanted to find and tame a C.A.R.A. robot, which is supposed to be rare.

There is only one spawn of C.A.R.E. robots on Next Island. It is located a few hundred meters South of Shatterroch teleporter. Spawning a tamable C.A.R.A. robot is not very easy as you have to kill around 1,000 L28-L33 C.A.R.E robots first. On the other hand, C.A.R.A. (L21) is quite easy to tame if you have some experience in the profession.

I used a Dominax Original Boiga, Adjusted for the first lashes and then continued with a Dominax Original Cobra, Mentor Edition. Taming was completed within minutes. C.A.R.A. features are not especially exciting. I expected Auto-Loot but this not the case. Its passive effects are Skill Gain - Pet and Taming (10%) and Decreased Critical Damage (3%). You can export your C.A.R.A. pet at level 7 to other planets.

The problem with the tamable papoo spawn south of Crystal Center seems to have been corrected. Yesterday I went to Next Island and found Adaptable Brown Papoos that can be tamed. These are level 1 creatures and are therefore very easy to tame. Once tamed, their name is changed and they are called Lofven Papoos. They cannot be exported to any other planet so you can only summon them on Next Island and Secret Island for the time being.

Edit: The issue is not solved. Most spawning papoos are immediately killed by the nearby turret. It is only in exceptional situations that some of them spawn outside of the turret range and can survive.
