Basic:Pets

Initially, pets in the game came with one or two set Epic Talents and had a 50% chance of joining combat at the beginning of each fight. Since the May 2014 Advanced Pet Update, the capabilities of pets have been greatly expanded. All Pets are No Auction but they are tradeable to other pirates on the account via the Shared Bank.

Following the completion of the Quest Into the Skull Cave, around Level 4, Pirates may accept the Side Quest Silly Pet Tricks which grants Pirates access to Bestia, the Circus Maximus, and The Morphing Tent.

Types of Pets

First Generation Pets

First Generation Pets haven't been morphed from a combination of parent pets in The Morphing Tent, which is why they are First Generation.

A First Generation Pet can be:

Bought from a Vendor, or the Crown Shop
Obtained by a Companion completing Pet Wranglin'
Redeemed from a Gift Card,
Obtained from a special Promotion,
Dropped by a creature, or
Rewarded by a Quest.

Hybrid Pets

A Hybrid Pet is a unique pet that is the result of pairing two specific species of pets in The Morphing Tent. Hybrid pets are never First Generation and cannot be obtained from vendors or creature drops -- only from Morphing.

Hybrid Pets have a mixture of the Attributes and Abilities (Talents and Powers) of the parents, making it very unlikely that any two hybrids will ever be exactly the same. Hybrids will never have a definite Pedigree, as it will always be based on which Abilities a hybrid inherits from its parents.

Training Pets

Training Pets is done through the completion of Pet Training Activities. It takes Energy to complete, and for maximum improvement, you want to feed your pet a Snack at the end of every game when available. See Training Pets for details.

Pet Sparring

Decius Duelmaster is the master of the Pet Arena, directing both Practice and Player vs Player pet sparring matches. Pet Sparring rewards the competitor with a wide variety of pet gear and pet snacks. There are three Badges available for completing each specified number of pet sparring matches. Pirates new to the Pet Arena can use one Pet at a time, but as they compete matches, they will unlock additional Pet Slots until 4 Pets can battle at once.
