Ragnarok X: Next Gen Pet Mastery Guide

The Pet System in Ragnarok X: Next Generation adds a strategic dimension to its open-world gameplay. Players can capture, train, and evolve various pets that aid in combat and boost character stats. These charming companions are available for all players to catch, hatch, and use in battle. This guide explores the mechanics of obtaining, developing, and making the most of pets in the game.

Unlocking the Pet System

To unlock the Pet System, players must achieve base level 60. Once this milestone is reached, a sequence of introductory quests becomes available. These quests walk players through buying a slingshot, loading it, and gaining access to the Pet Encyclopedia. Completing these tasks allows players to begin collecting and managing their pets.

How to Capture Pets?

Capturing pets involves a simple yet strategic approach. The system categorizes pets into different rarity tiers, which determines their likelihood of appearing when captured. The quality of the pet you obtain is random, with the following probabilities:

S Tier (Very Rare): 1% chance A Tier (Rare): 10% chance B Tier (Normal): 89% chance

What is Pet Quality Transfer?

Players can transfer the quality of a higher-tier pet to another of the same species. This process preserves the level and experience of the receiving pet. It requires two identical pets (same species), where one has superior quality. A fee of 5,000 Zeny is charged for the transfer. This feature lets players upgrade their pets without sacrificing their progress.

Pet Awakening Skills

Pets can unlock up to four awakening skill slots to improve their combat effectiveness. Unlocking these slots requires skill sheets, which are only available from the Pet Book Vending Machine (Gacha system). The number of slots a pet can access depends on its quality tier and star rank.

Pet Stamina Explained

Pets operate using a stamina system. Each pet has 720 stamina points, enabling 120 minutes of active deployment. Stamina is the primary resource that governs a pet's functionality. Unfortunately, you cannot use your pet continuously throughout the day due to this limitation. Stamina decreases by one point every 10 seconds while the pet is active.

Players can enjoy Ragnarok X: Next Generation on a larger PC or laptop screen using BlueStacks, along with a keyboard and mouse.
