I'd like to know what skill level you need to train a Dragon or Drake, I
have 90.2 taming... how much more do I need? What do I train at this level
if not a dragon?

According to stomped.com, you need 100 and then are only successfull 1
in 20 attempts. With the new agression in place, I waould say avoid them
unless you are tough dude/dudette.

You need a minimum skill of 96 in animal taming to even ATTEMPT to tame
a drake. However, until you have 100 your success rate will be minimal.
Dragons are slightly easier to tame, but I think they still require a
slightly higher skill level.

However, if you're thinking of attempting it, you will have other
problems besides the skill level. First of all, they attack you on
sight now. You can tame a creature that's attacking you, but if you hit
it at all, it will become to angry to continue taming. Also, 19 times
out of 20, if you try to tame a drake or dragon it will just become
angry.... even if it's already attacking you. You won't even get to
start taming it, but you can retry immidiately.

You're best bet with taming them is to first beat the crap out of them
until they're almost dead. At that point their fireball does almost no
damage, and it slows them down. However, the easy ways of doing this
are gone since they no longer stand in firefields as nicely as they used
to. Basically, its going to be an expensive operation to bring one
down, and their loot isnt' usually worth the effort, but dragons
sometimes got some worthwhile stuff.
