Elaborate Pet

[Vivamort]

Apparently with the change in the ability to equip gear that has a required level, before you are that level, but it will not provide benefit, has adversly effected low level pets.

So no more super pet at lvl 1? =(

I tried twinking my pet... 3 times. Twice I went LD to come back as soon as it would let me and have my pet poof (once with pet suspended and once with him out and before you ask I'm max AA and then some). Third time I got to fight with him for about 15 mins before I got disconnected again. I've had it. Why won't the pet stay on LD? My other temporary stuff doesn't poof.

just need to find no level restricted weapons... Ex's axe is decent!

[Morrgue]

So our pets have 2 weapons and one wrist.
Pretty tricky I say.

Nice info! I know some but not all of this. I have given some scrap defiant armor to my pet when I'm farming in Corathus Creep (a fair amount of lesser defiant drops there) and while it's not elaborate, it does seem to keep my pet alive longer until I'm in a hurry and forget to pocket him. Ouch!


Is that pet inventory slot count just the Necro pet or all class pets? I'd like to put some info on our guild board.


Thanks!

All pets, although I haven't tried/heard about Chanter pets.

As a note: Higher level Mage pets come with pre-summoned twink gear (you can find the info on their boards).

Other than that, all classes can equip the same.

[Morrgue]

Maybe this is rhetorical,

I guess when a mage hands me a bag of stuff for my pet it includes all the slots because it could be items for me too. I never paid attention, I assumed the pet had all the slots any ways. Plus I'm thrilled to get the stuff so I don't even look. I'm putting it on my pet like it's going to poof in 30 seconds.

The famous "Bag o'Summoned Gear" that we get from Mages should have been my que that there was only one wrist slot, but I never paid all that much attention until it was pointed out above.

It's funny. I had the same pet forever (well, months anyway) and had no problems. Once I equipped ol' JaBoner with all the stuff above, I got smacked. Went back to Bazaar, set a limit of 5K and outfitted Kenn. Lagged on my second Mob and **poof**. Was lucky the other day and someone was selling all the Prime stuff (including belt and Mowcha) for only 5pp each and Weps for only 10pp. Picked up the Pauldrons for 15pp and the Cloak for 100pp. That'll have to hold Kenn over for a while, LOL.

I have the same problem, I think its mostly my fault though, I'm like ooo pet's a little more ubah now he can take it...and then poof.

[Drazzminius]

Yeah, that's prolly it for me too! I do have a super SH!++# internet service here in Japan, tho. I blame them!

I'm on FV. since most of our things are tradeable, the only thing that seems to happen to attuneable gear once equipped is that merchants will no longer buy it; other players can still equip items that were first attuned elsewhere. I was told the other day, however, that pets will only equip gear that has not been attuned. Can anyone verify this or recommend how I could verify it myself?

[Aiyee]

Find an attunable weapon you can equip, attune it to you then give to pet...best way to tell since you can only see weapons on him.

[Erudeus]

I wonder if attuneables are treated the same way on FV with regards to such gear poofing upon suspension...that is still the case on normal servers, right?

pets seem to be able to use attunable visible gear slots. For example, give pet defiant visible gear and the gear becomes attuned the next time the pet zones - yet it still keeps the gear in use. Non visible, not so

Bump...just wanted to point out to anyone trying to twink their pet don't bother getting him a back item, if you have a pet focus.

Back item EM6 gives your pet.
