Best pets for elite

[Crowsfoot]

Many people often discuss the best pets(obviously arcane). But I believe it would be helpful to name 2-5 must have pets that new players can get through Auction House. Preferably list pets costing 30k each or less. Please list the pet name, and its arcane ability since new players can't see what arcane abilities are in stable. I will start:

Warriors:
1) Ribbit (really all classes since "twisting ribbit" is a common practice) arcane ability increases crit chance by 40% for a short duration.

2) blight (extremely inexpensive), blights arcane ability releases a nova that reduces armor of all in range enemies by 10%.

3) deary (remember this list is for new players, so laugh to yourself). Deary is THE cheapest pet in the game, its common drop rate and its drops from klass is partially responsible for this. Deary grants +15 strength and dexterity to all Allies in range.

My top 5 "easy-to-get" choices for each class:

Warrior
1) Ribbit - farm Mother
2) Loki - about 18k or farm Elite Jarl
3) Koko - 75 Hauntlet coins
4) Rocky - from Beastmaster daily quests
5) Tankton - from Klaas

Sorcerer:
1) Blight - farm Kletus
2) Aspen - farm Gul Bellybottom
3) Flap Jack - farm Bael
4) Esteban - about 5k (?) or random drop in Brackenridge maps
5) Frost - from Klaas
(I didn't mention Colton here because he takes about 50 days to get)

Rogue
1) Horton - from Klaas
2) Granite - about 15k (?) or random drop in Rook's Nest maps
3) Meep-Moop - 100 Story tokens (about 20 days)
4) Flap Jack - farm Bael
5) Abigail - from Beastmaster daily quests
6) Blight - farm Kletus

EDIT: Not sure what I was thinking with the first post. This one is related to the thread author's request

Deary because it grants +10 STR and +10 DEX as well as +15 STR, DEX, and INT as Arcane ability.

Is George a good pet on elite, I solo Brack sometimes? I normally use Malison, never fails me.

He's really good against bosses with predictable windup attacks. Also good against keeping Bloodhammer from going crazy...

I guess I need 2 George eggs.

I am probably the only rogue in the game that does not use support of any of the flightless four

But I will correct this during leveling to 36, for sure ;-)

I don't. Haha. I only find Flap Jack of use in tombs to stun them. That too, on my alt lol.

I only use my lvl31 pets for elite. Guess i can't list them cause they're all above the 30k range.

I really think Dart needs to become gold-purchased and not plat exclusive. Since the starter pets are 9k gold if you wish to buy them later, I would say make Dart 18-20k gold. He's a really underrated pet who I'm leveling up right now. His arcane ability has a very short cooldown (12 sec) and the 6 seconds of -10% dmg reduction for party is noticeable while running elites (especially against archers in Rook's Nest, etc.). I suppose you could technically "twist" this arcane ability with another person in your party using Dart, giving you endless -10% dmg reduction. What do you think?

actually...now with all the pets..things have changed..I wanna know now too ...so I can kinda use the pet animacity thingy

[Terminhater]

I normally use Guapo and if things get tough it's Shiloh ftw.

Sometimes when things get hectic I summon Egbert the Enchidna for survivability or Ollie the Ostrich.

Oh! Nice necro of ancient thread -_-
