Guide to Pets

By Chewie

Overview

Pets play an essential role in enhancing your gameplay by providing significant stat boosts and improving character skills through a unique talent tree. These companions are must-have assets for any player aiming for long-term success, as they also offer team-wide benefits such as increased Dodge and HP. Below, we outline how to acquire pets, the costs involved, and strategic advice for both paying and free-to-play (F2P) players.

How to Obtain Pets

Currently, there are three main ways to acquire pets:

• Pet Banner – The primary method for obtaining pets.
• Special Events – Limited-time events like the Halloween Event.
• Route Funds – A premium option that requires monetary investment.

Important Note for F2P Players: Acquiring pets solely through free methods is extremely challenging. Most paths require financial investment, either directly through pet banners or by purchasing Route Funds.

Free Pet: At start of game you are able to get a free Red Eagle pet via daily login as reward from 7 day. Also the second possible way of obtaining this pet is the first reward of Route fund. Special event like “Halloween Event” also grant free pet, if you play your card right.

Pet Shards and Their Limitations

The Pet Random Chest provides shards of various pets. However, as of November 8, 2024, crafting a complete pet from 60 shards is not possible. Shards can only be used for upgrading existing pets, not for creating new ones.

Pet Banner Rotation

Each pet, with the exception of specific exclusive pets, will appear twice in consecutive pet banner cycles. Here’s the current rotation schedule:

• Victoria’s Red Eagles and Marilyn’s Griffon
• Marilyn’s Griffon and Amelia’s Moon Rabbit
• Amelia’s Moon Rabbit and Angel’s Aureate Unicorn
• Angel’s Aureate Unicorn and Fernandes’ Sprouting Dog
• Fernandes’ Sprouting Dog and Bell’s Spectral Jackal
• Bell’s Spectral Jackal and Victoria’s Red Eagles

Exclusive Pets

• Hetty’s Bubbly Ghost (event-exclusive – Halloween Event)
• Atreus’s Blazing (offer-exclusive)

Cost of Obtaining Pets

• Standard Cost: Each pet requires 16,200 prisms and an additional €11 for another 20 pulls at minimum for three days of 20 pulls per day (5,400 prisms daily).
• Maximum Cost: Without any prisms, expect to spend up to €50.

Should You Invest in Pets?

For Paying Players

If you are comfortable spending money, acquiring any pet is highly recommended. Unlocking pets is crucial, and investing in strengthening them for their designated characters can greatly enhance your gameplay. Consider this the minimum investment for serious players.

For Free-to-Play (F2P) Players

Options are limited but possible:

• Try Your Luck: Save up 16,200 prisms and aim for a full pet through gacha within 63 pulls.
• Avoid Risk: If uncertain, prioritize using prisms for Dispatch and Hourglass Obtain instead of risking them on pet banners.

Key Takeaways

• Any pet investment is valuable for long-term gameplay.
• Unlocking pets should be a priority, even if further investment isn’t possible.
• The minimum cost for acquiring pets is 16,200 prisms and €11; maximum can reach €50 if no prisms are available.
• Pets cannot currently be obtained for free (except victoria pet) unless you are extremely lucky with fewer than 63 pulls or during exclusive events.

Additional Benefits of Pets

• Stat Boosts: Pets enhance the designated character’s attributes and improve skill performance via their talent tree.
• Team Buffs: Unlocked pets contribute additional buffs to your team, such as increased building output and improved Ignore Dodge/Critical Hit rates through the Pet Book.
