Pets

Pets are equipable allies that follow the player around the world; they are invincible and do not have a hitbox. Pets can be found in the form of eggs from bosses & godlands monsters as well as a reward for donators, event completion or giveaways. You must open pet eggs in your pet yard where you can feed, fuse and release unwanted pets.

Pets currently come in 5 different rarities:

* Common
* Uncommon
* Rare
* Legendary
* Divine

### Pet Eggs

Pet eggs are usually dropped in egg baskets from Lesser Gods in the midlands, Gods in the godlands, Event Gods, dungeon bosses, and arena bosses. Eggs can also be given to the player via donation purchases, sold in the Nexus Shops or sold on the marketplace.

Eggs can be found in all rarities except for Divine and are only usable in the pet yard. Depending on the upgrade level of your pet yard, players will be able to hatch rarer eggs.

### Pet Yard

In the Pet Yard, players can use eggs found around the realm and 'hatch' them in the Pet Yard. The Pet Yard must be upgraded at the **Yard Caretaker** (inside Pet Yard) in order to house higher rarity pets and to fuse pets to a higher quality.

 Pet Yard Upgrade 2
 Pet Yard Upgrade 3

### Pet Abilities

Pets each have 3 random abilities which unlock based on their rarity, Common pets start with one unlocked ability and unlock their second ability once they reach Uncommon, and their last ability unlocks at Legendary.

Certain pet families may have a higher chance of spawning with certain abilities more than others.

Unlike the original RotMG, Pets have been reworked which **removed** **Heal** and **Magic Heal** ability from all pets. In turn, this rework enhances undesirable abilities to be more useful by providing the player with an increase to their offensive or defensive abilities.

 Rising Fury
 Defending
 Attack-Close
 Attack-Mid
 Attack-Far
 Electric
 Decoy

It is recommended to aim for all 3 reworked pet abilities on your pet, these are Savage, Rising Fury and Defending.
Each of your pet's ability has its own level, ranging from level 1 to 100. Each ability always starts at the same level based on the ability slot and pet rarity.

 Uncommon
 Rare
 Legendary

### Pet Feeding

As the ability level goes higher, their effect becomes more powerful, to raise the level, you can 'feed' and item to your pet using the **Upgrade Pet** in the pet yard. How much their level goes up depends on the Feed Power of the item. It is also more difficult to level up as the level gets higher.

 Gold
 Max Level

Once you level up the pet to a certain level, that ability will no longer gain level until you fuse the pet with another to the next rarity.

### Pet Fusion

Pet fusion can be done at the **Pet Upgrade** in the Pet Yard, the fusion process will use the pet in the 2nd slot to use as fusion material for the 1st slot pet. Both pets must come from the same Pet Family.

The 1st slot pet will be upgraded to the next rarity and receive its full effect (e.g. ability unlock, max level raised, new appearance) it is **heavily recommended** to fully max all unlocked abilities for **both** pets before fusing, as the new ability level will be based on the average between both pet's level and the max level will also be based on the new level. Fusing unmaxed pets will ultimately end up with a divine pet with max level less than 100.

 Gold
 Extra Effect

### Pet Families

There are 12 Pet Families available:

* Aquatic
* Automation
* Avian
* Canine
* Exotic
* Farm
* Feline
* Humanoid
* Insect
* Penguin
* Reptile
* ????

Dropped eggs often have their Pet family attached to their name, however, some eggs can be "Mystery Eggs" which means they can hatch into a pet from any family.

### Pet Skins

A pet's appearance is based on its pet family and rarity, however, it is possible to use Pet Stones to change the appearance of your pet.
