Pets
Appearance
Pets are ultra-rare hatchling companions — one for each skill, thirteen in all. Unlike stable dinos, pets are not tamed or bred: one simply appears one day mid-grind, as pure long-tail luck. Each pet lives on its own collection strip and grants a tiny, permanent, always-on bonus.
How Pets Are Found
[edit | edit source]- Every completion of a skill's action has a very small chance — about 1 in 2,000 — to turn up that skill's pet.
- The find is steady and dependable rather than a true gamble: keep working a skill and its pet will eventually arrive. Each pet can only be found once, and finding it fires the biggest celebration in the game.
- Farming pets arrive per harvest (a harvest is its "completion").
- There are thirteen to find, one per skill. Collecting all thirteen earns a title.
Effects
[edit | edit source]Each pet's passive switches on the moment you find it and stays on forever. Most grant +2% speed to their own skill; the Expeditions and Farming pets grant a themed bonus instead.
| Pet | Skill | Species | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pip | Foraging | Parasaurolophus | +2% Foraging speed |
| Timber | Logging | Castoroides | +2% Logging speed |
| Pebble | Mining | Doedicurus | +2% Mining speed |
| Puddle | Fishing | Fisher Bird | +2% Fishing speed |
| Crumb | Cooking | Gastornis | +2% Cooking speed |
| Button | Crafting | Glyptodon | +2% Crafting speed |
| Cinder | Smithing | Forge Salamander | +2% Smithing speed |
| Fizz | Alchemy | Beelzebufo | +2% Alchemy speed |
| Scrap | Hunting | Raptor | +2% Hunting speed |
| Nuzzle | Taming | Triceratops | +2% Taming speed |
| Wander | Expeditions | Pteranodon | +2 expedition score |
| Glow | Delving | Giant Bat | +2% Delving speed |
| Sprout | Farming | Stegosaurus | +2% crop growth |
These bonuses are small on their own but stack with other always-on collection bonuses (such as completed Museum wings) as your collection fills out.
