Obtaining More Pets

There are many ways to get pets: catching them in the wild, fusion pets, quests, team competition, merchants, and so on. But the main ways to get them are the first two.

1.Catching in the Wild

Pets that are hunted in the wild are usually low level and common. Meanwhile, each pet needs a specific item (e.g., Green Apples for Poring, Carrots for Lunatic; More on that later.).

• Prepare the Grab Taming Items:

You can get them from Shell Exchange (at NPCs), Boss Drops, or the Market, also be done through ET endless tower and dungeons. Stock up with 6-10 items per attempt to boost your odds.

• Go to the specific pet refresher:

Pets hang out in specific spots (e.g., Poring at Prontera South Gate, Orc Warrior at Orc Village).

Attention: Switch to a quieter channel to avoid crowds; Don't catch in crowded place when you tame then someone kill that mobs, your tame item will be gone.

• Start Catching:

Turn off Auto Attack: Go to “Adventure Skills” and uncheck “Select Target Auto Attack” so you don't have to worry about accidentally killing the pet you're about to capture.

• Use the Item:

Tap the pet, then use its taming item. A heart appears—keep going until it turns yellow (100% success).

• Seal the Deal:

Hit "Catch" to nab the pet egg for your Pet Egg Bag.

*Tip: Check your Pet Egg Bag for space before you start! Not having enough space can cause you to lose your efforts.

2.Pet Fusion

Pet Fusion can help you get 2 or 3 star pets with stronger skills that can't be caught in the wild.

• Find the Recipe:

Open your Marvelous Pet Bag, check the Pet Handbook, pick your desired pet.

• Prepare for Fusion:

Tap "Fuse" to see what's needed.

Usually, it's two 1-star pets (both at Intimacy Level 10) plus some Zeny.

Example: Combine a Poring and a Lunatic (both at Intimacy Level 10) with 10,000 Zeny to create a Sirena.

Pet Skills and What They Do

Each type of pet has its own special features and they all have different skills. Their skills can be broadly categorized into four types:

• Active Skills:

Jump into battle with moves like attacks or heals.

Example: Orc Warrior’s "Taunt" pulls enemy attention off you.

• Passive Skills:

Always-on boosts for your character. Like Yoyo adds 5% attack speed.

• Labor Skills:

Speed up resource production at labor stations. Like Smokey gives a 10% boost at the Cuisine Association.

• Adventure Skills:

Improve rewards or shorten adventure times. Some pets up your chances of snagging rare items or cards.

Tips: pick the right pet to help you be more efficient

Fighting: Go for pets with active or passive skills (like Orc Warrior).

Adventures: Pick pets with adventure perks for better loot.

Labor: Match pets to stations for quicker results.

 

Putting Your Pets to Work

In addition to helping you in battle, pets can help you gain more experience points, zeny, increase your chances of getting cards and help you craft items, and more!

• Pet Adventures:

1.Unlock it

Finish the first adventure (purple label) without using Gameplay Adventure Time. Later missions might need specific pets or intimacy levels.

2. Gain More From Pet Adventure

In the Marvelous Pet Bag, pick an adventure and dispatch your pets. Some require certain pets, like Mandragora. After completing adventure quests, pet will return with valuable spoils—such as rare cards and abundant crafting materials. The higher your bond level, the greater your loot acquisition chance..

• Pet Labor

Put your pets to work by assigning up to three to stations like Cuisine Association or Equipment Association. Match their labor skills—like Smokey’s 10% boost at Cuisine Association—for faster crafting.

 

Tips for Pet Optimization

To make your pets a powerful asset in Ragnarok M: Classic, you’ll want to optimize them with a few smart strategies. Here are 3 concise tips to help you get the most out of your companions:

• Choose Pets Based on Your Build

Pick a pet whose abilities match your class and playstyle. For instance, a Lunatic boosts critical builds with its crit-focused perks, while Isis enhances magic users with its supportive skills. Using the wrong pet for your build can hinder your progress, so choose wisely to amplify your strengths.

• Always Keep Pet Food Handy

A starving pet is a useless pet—it won’t assist in combat if its hunger levels drop too low. Carry pet food at all times and feed them regularly to maintain their efficiency. Neglecting hunger levels weakens your team, so stay proactive to keep your pet battle-ready.

• Level Up Intimacy

Spend time caring for and using your pet to boost its intimacy level. Higher intimacy unlocks better performance, including enhanced skills and adventure rewards. Ignoring intimacy keeps your pet’s potential locked away, so make it a priority to build that bond.

 

Conclusion

The pet system in Ragnarok M: Classic is a total game-changer, mixing practicality with fun. Whether you’re catching wild pets, fusing them into stronger allies, or sending them on adventures, they make your journey smoother and more exciting. Master this system, and you’ll level up faster, gather more resources, and enjoy the game like never before.
