Pet Builds

Understand pet talent passives, their upgrade costs and effects, then find the optimal pet setup for your build.

Reminder: Pet talents are bench-only. The pet must NOT be in the active combat slot (Slot 1) for its talent to work.

Materials: Each passive requires Gold, pet-specific Fluid (obtained from pet ranch), pet-specific Feed (obtained from pet ranch drops), and Concentrated Magic Crystals (from Abyss farming). Crystals are not needed for Level 1.


Upgrade Priority (F2P)

  1. Swift (Raptor) — Most impactful single passive; benefits every hero
  2. Corrosion (Cave Spider) — Essential if running Poison Archer
  3. Bloodlust (Small Bat) — Great sustain, especially at Level 3+ (1.5s CD)
  4. Deadly (Lava Raptor) — Universal DPS boost
  5. Iron Wall (Metal Slime) — If survivability is an issue

Gold tip: Level 1 of 3 passives (~75M) is better value than maxing 1 passive to Level 5 (~180M). Spread investment first.

Per-Build Optimal Setups

Poison Archer / SP Morpheus

Slot Pet Reason
Slot 1 (Active) Small Bat Team healing sustain
Slot 2 (Bench) Cave Spider -45% Poison Resist — mandatory for poison builds

SP Morpheus variant: swap Raptor for Ladybug (+40% Poison Amp) to double-stack poison passives.

Volley Archer

Slot Pet Reason
Slot 1 (Active) Small Bat Team healing
Slot 2 (Bench) Lava Raptor +50% Crit — critical for crit-loop
Slot 3 (Bench) Gem Spider Aggro Control — -10→30% Enemy Dodge (15s). Fire element auto-attacks.

Slot Pet Reason
Slot 1 (Active) Slime +30% Recovery Effect — amplifies ALL heals including Boar King double/triple casts
Slot 2 (Bench) Raptor +55% ATK Speed — faster casts = more chances to trigger Boar King double-cast
Slot 3 (Bench) Tumbleweed +40% DMG ramp — stronger heals over time

Slime as active is specifically for healer — its passive boosts all healing output. Raptor's ATK Speed synergizes with Boar King's 35% double-cast chance.

Ice Mage / SP Hakuya

Slot Pet Reason
Slot 1 (Active) Small Bat Team healing
Slot 2 (Bench) Stranded Fish (Paid) -40% Ice Resist — ice equivalent of Cave Spider
Slot 3 (Bench) Raptor +55% ATK Speed

If no Stranded Fish (paid pet): use Electric Bat (-Lightning Res) for Whirlwind, or Lava Raptor (Crit) as general alternative.

If you have Big Bro (paid): replace Iron Scorpion — Big Bro gives +40% HP + 4% HP regen every 2s.

SP Roud (Stance Switch)

Slot Pet Reason
Slot 1 (Active) Small Bat Team healing
Slot 2 (Bench) Raptor +55% ATK Speed — benefits both stances
Slot 3 (Bench) Lava Raptor +50% Crit

Arena / PvP

Slot Pet Reason
Slot 1 (Active) Small Bat Team healing
Slot 2 (Bench) Plain Beast +50% Crit Resist — PvP is crit-heavy
Slot 3 (Bench) Metal Slime +40% DEF + 15% DR

Arena has a 3% damage coefficient — survivability wins over raw DPS.


Budget Setup (Early Game)

Slot Pet Reason
Slot 1 Whatever you hatch first Any active pet is better than none
Slot 2 First bench pet available Even Level 1 passives help
Slot 3 Second bench pet available Get three total ASAP

Priority: Get 3 pets as fast as possible, then start upgrading bench passives.


Passive Upgrade Order

Regardless of setup, upgrade passives in this order:

  1. Raptor ATK Speed to Level 2 → impacts all heroes
  2. Your build-specific passive to Level 2 (e.g., Cave Spider for poison)
  3. Raptor ATK Speed to Level 3
  4. Build-specific passive to Level 3
  5. Third bench passive to Level 2
  6. Continue spreading upgrades; max one only after all are Level 3+
