Guide to Stat Pets

Overview

My first guide on Steam was a tier list for all of the pets, but I never went very far into detail with pets that increase stats. On top of that, I’ve made discoveries recently that never made it into that and other guides.

Types of Stat Pets

Focus
  • Focus pets give a boost of +4 to a single stat.
  • Focus pets include Snoot (Strength), Beholder (Magic), Spiny (Defense), and Meowburt (Agility).

Split Focus
  • Split Focus pets give a boost of +2 to two different stats.
  • Split Focus pets include Scratchpaw (Strength and Agility), and Zebra (Magic and Agility).

Tactical
  • Tactical pets give a boost of +2 to a single stat, and have a special effect on the side.
  • Tactical pets include Yeti (Strength), Cardinal (Magic), Pazzo (Defense), and Seahorse (Agility).
  • Zebra is also a Tactical Pet, but is listed under Split Focus to avoid redundancy.

Other
  • Chicken and Snailburt don’t fit into the above categories, although technically Chicken could be referred to as a “Balance” pet.
  • Chicken gives a boost of +1 to Strength, Defense, and Agility.
  • Snailburt gives a boost of +5 to Defense, and docks -2 from agility

Weapon Combinations

Note: In each list, weapons with less than +3 of a given stat will not be listed, unless otherwise specified.

Split Focus and Complimentary Weapons

Scratchpaw, Burly Bear, and Zebra all boost two stats each. They emphasize the boosts of split focus weapons, and compliment weapons that boost the two stats which they don’t. For each of these three pets, a list of complimentary weapons will be provided, as well as a list of the weapons they emphasize. The bonuses your character receives with both equipped will be listed with each weapon.

Chicken

Chicken compliments every mage weapon, and emphasizes every non-mage weapon, because he boosts three stats. Since it’s impossible to make a bad combo when using chicken, it’s unnecessary to make any lists for him.
