What Is A Pet?

The pet in Jade Dynasty is your npc companion. They
are Funny little creatures that enjoy to talk to you. They might make
you laugh, and they might make you mad. Pets can also evolve.

How Do We Get A
Pet?

When you hit level 5 you will automatically get a
quest from Pet master Ellan. Complete the quest and you will randomly
get one of two pets:

1. Woody Pig : https://2img.net/h/i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm134/nolliesk8tr/woodypig.jpg
2. Dryadling: https://2img.net/h/i295.photobucket.com/albums/mm134/nolliesk8tr/dryadling.jpg

What Are Pets
Used For?

Pets serve many purposes they can do any of the
fallowing:

1. Help kill mobs
2. Tank mobs
3. Can give you added stats by Fusing or Esperating
4. Can farm "needed" mats for themselves

How Do Pets
Evolve?

Pets evolve by their ranks, their ranks are improved
based on overall pets capability.

Grade 12 = first evolved state

Grade 18 = second evolved state

Raising Pet
Grade

The level 45 quest " Free Lunch " can be done as
many times as you wish. When you get your new pet go train them to lvl
30 and go back to pet tamer to free them. When you free them you will
get broken jade pieces as reward. Use the broken jade pieces to train
your pet.

You can only use the jade peices to reach a
certain grade 8 after this you will need celebeans in order to raise
their grade. ( no current information on how to obtain these)

You can see the pets current grade by pressing "p"
and hovering over the pets picture in the pet window.

How Do We Get A
New Pet?

At level 45 you get a quest ( Free Lunch ) that has
you kill some mobs, when you finish the quest you get a new kind of pet.
You can either get a toad or a wolf.

There are additional pets in the Cash Shop ( J ).

Can Pets Die?

Yes. Your pet dies when its age is full, while
giving you an addition reward. You can view your pets life by pressing
"p" and hovering over the pets picture.

The pets age grows by one every five minutes, even
if he is resting.

You can reduce or add the pets Age by 100 for 8
silver and train them for 50 silver at the Pet Tamer Totto in Sunstream.

NOTE: Age and health
points are different, when its health points go to zero you can still
summon him and heal him, when its age points are full it dies.

How Do We Feed
Our Pet?

Your pet will get hungry from time to time. You can
see how hungry, or not hungry it is by hovering over that green bubble
on the far right of the pets UI while summoned.

You can feed your pet by buying items from Pet Tamer
Totto. If your lucky you can find potions, food and even charms in the
wild.

NOTE: When your pet
gets too hungry it will do less damage. When your pet has a fuller tummy
it can do extra damage.

How Do We Make
Pets Farm?

Once Your pet hits level 30 it gains the capability
to "farm" mats for itself.

These "farming" actions include:

1. Gardening
2. Woodwork
3. Hunting
4. Fishing
5. Mining
6. Treasure

To make your pet farm press "p", at the top right
will be a button that says " Combat ", click it. Now you will see a
status window, showing what actions you can take and what its current
ability is for them. Click on the action you wish to partake in and then
at the bottom click on " Save and Exit ". Your pet will now go off for a
while and attempt to collect mats to use in the pets workshop.

Note: Every time the pet brings back an item it consumes
100 belly per item.

For each level in a farming skill you can get six
mats (4 white, 1 blue and 1 purple). Whites are used in basic recipes
that you can buy from Pet Tamer Totto (drop rates for these ones can be
rare ).

NOTE: If your pet is
summoned while doing this it will be stowed, do not worry about this it
must be stowed in order to farm. When you unsummon it the pet will go
back into combat mode.

Auto Feeding

You can auto feed your pet by pressing "p" and
putting a potion, like Wongzo Grape Or a Pearl Grape (attained from treasure chest [Post accend made chars]) , into the empty box on the bottom
right of the pet window. When the pet loses a certain amount of health
it will automatically use the potion.

Pet Bag

You can buy items from the Cash Shop ( j ) or from
other players to increase the slots in your pet bag. Expand the pet bag
at Pet Tamer Totto in Sunstream.

Two Sunray Brooch will add 6 slots to your pets bag
slots.
One Sunray Brooch will add 1 slot to your pet
slots ( amount of pets being equipped at any one time, default is two )

Pet Stops
Gaining EXP

Your pet will stop gaining EXP when it reaches five
levels higher then you. Once you level it will continue to gain EXP
again.

Pet Leveling
Tips

1. To level up a pet straight from
1 to 30 you can use 7 mirage candy or 1 kylin orb (lvl 45).

2.(skill) You can level up pet
skills or learn a new skills with the "Book of Domestication", an item
that can be acquired by lottery from treasure chest sold at Sky Dweller
cost 50g and sense its a lottery item so you might end up spending a
pretty penny to get it, and be exchanged to the skill book you want at
the other pet tamer Lonno. Even so each book will increase skill level
by 1 so if you want it to hit level 30 you might end up spending over
1500g.

3. Nura's Gift gives dragonfang
herbs that give you pet fighting spirit. It can be leveled up and given
for Pet Tamer Totto to give you items such as eera herb and exp. orb (I.E Hulu Orb and Kylin orb sadly you CANNOT get a Mira-drake orb.[randomly]).
