Pet attack

A Jr. Lava Slime attacking a Caveling Hunter.

Pets are entities that can be "equipped" to players, and function as status aids as well as an aid in battle. Some pets, such as the Owlux, will not attack enemies, however most do.

As players and their pets defeat enemies, the pets will gain experience. As the pet's level increases, its attack power increases and it will unlock more talents. Pets have 9 random talents specific to their species that are available for point allocation, but only 5 can be selected. Pets will receive a point every even level (2, 4, 6, etc.), and will receive its last point on level 10. At least one talent has to be selected in a previous row to access the next row of talents.

Pets can be obtained by getting a pet egg, placing it in a powered Egg Incubator for 30 minutes to crack it, and finally pressing Use item while holding the cracked egg.

There are a total of 11 different pets in the game. There are 53 pets including all color variants.

Levels[]

Pets can be leveled up to level 10. Each level increases their damage, and every other level unlocks a new talent point (up to 5 at level 10).

Each level requires an increasing amount of experience, which is earned by the pet, their owner or their owner's minions dealing damage to creatures.

The amount of experience an attack will give is the damage dealt, divided by 20, rounded down and clamped to 1–250. For example, a hit dealing 450 damage would give 22 experience. Additionally, members of the none and merchant factions do not give experience.
