Pets

A pet is a small friend that trots, hops or floats behind you. Most pets run out and pick up loot for you. Others give you a small bonus, heal you in a fight or drink potions when you cannot. Every pet in the game can be earned by playing. Open Pets from the menu, or tap the little pet portrait near your health bar.

Getting a pet

Pets come in a Pet Box. The box lands in your USE bag. Open it and the box rattles three times, bursts open and the pet pops out. If you already own that pet, you get a bit of pet EXP instead.

Ways to find boxes:

• Your first pet. At level 8, the quest A Friend in the Grove in Dawnhollow gives you a Glim box.
• Shops. Dawnhollow Sundries sell boxes for lumens: Barley, Ashenpaw and Mochi.
• Quests. A Friend from the Tidepools (level 22) gives you Bubblegill.
• Party quest boards. Spend party quest tokens to buy Sunwhisker, Cinder, Starling and Nimbus. See Party Quests.
• Rare drops. Dewdrop sometimes drops from Dewdrop Slime. Mosslight and Emberwing can drop from bosses, The Moss King and The Eclipsed Star.
• Quests. Scales Along the Cable in Anchorfall (level 105) gives you Chilly.
• Cash Shop. Extra looks only (see below).

Find out how to get any pet

Tap any pet in the Pets window, even a dark shape you do not own yet. HOW TO GET lists every way to get it: the quest with its giver, town and level, a lumens shop, a party quest board with its token price, the creature that drops it and where it lives, a seasonal event shop, or the Cash Shop with its Starshard price. Tap a way to act on it. You walk to the quest giver or shopkeeper, see the creature's home on the World Map, open the event while it runs, or open the shop on that offer. The collection tiles name the way in one word: Quest, Shop, PQ, Drop, Event or Cash.

With no pet yet, the window opens on Glim marked YOUR FIRST PET, and the empty summon slot reads "Get your first pet". From level 8 a paw + button on the screen opens it.

Compare pets

Press COMPARE to see every pet in one list: fetch range at level 1 and at full growth, bonus, signature trick and how to get it. Tap a row to see that companion.

What pets do

Every pet has one main talent:

A looting pet makes one trip at a time and can carry a few drops that lie close together. It only fetches your own drops and drops nobody owns, so it never takes someone else's loot.

Feeding and levels

Pets level up from 1 to 20. Each pet has a favourite food:

Open the pet and press FEED. It picks the food from your bag by itself. Each treat gives 20 pet EXP. MAX feeds the exact number of treats needed to reach the top level, or everything you have if you are short. Roughly 40 treats get a pet to level 10, and about 160 to level 20.

Every pet level makes its abilities a little stronger. Rename a pet any time with RENAME.

Awakening

A pet at maximum level can awaken once, free. It gets a glowing halo that everyone can see, and its tricks work better. It never gets extra stats.

Pet tricks

From pet level 10, each pet knows one signature trick, set by its kind. A trick fires on its own in a fight when you need it, then rests for a while. No trick deals damage, and tricks never fire in PvP.

Each pet also has a Trick 2 that you choose. Tap the gold TRICK 2 row on the pet card to open the picker. Potion is available from level 1. Mend, Ward and Focus open at pet level 10. You may leave it empty.

Potion tricks

The Potion trick works in manual play, in AUTO and during auto-quest walks. It uses the potion you set in the AUTO settings, or the best one you have. It gets better with the pet's level:

• Tier 1 from level 1: drinks HP potions when HP is low.
• Tier 2 from level 10: also watches your MP.
• Tier 3 from level 20: follows your own AUTO potion lines.

Mochi has the trick built in at the top tier from level 1. A pet will never drink faster than a quick thumb can, and never in PvP. If you run out of potions, it tells you once in a while during a fight.

Pet slots and Harmony

You can summon one pet at first. A second slot opens at level 60, or sooner with a Pet Harmony Charm. You can get the charm from the quest Room for Two at level 45, from the guild shop, or from the Cash Shop. With two pets summoned, both loot and use their tricks independently.

Cash Shop looks

The Cash Shop sells extra looks for pets. A look has the same abilities as the play pet it copies. It is never stronger. The Prism Sprite, for example, is a new look for Glim. Each look says which earnable pet it copies, like "Look of Glim".
