Meta Pets

A Dragon Egg

Description

Meta Pets were first introduced in Publish 4 on September 5th, 2014, starting with Meta Dragons. There are now three Meta Pet types: Meta Dragon, Steed, and Spider.

Meta Pets can learn abilities from Meta Relics which, in the case of Meta Steeds and Dragons, can be obtained from Random Dungeon Adventures, invasion rewards and monster of the month drops. Meta Dragons and Spiders can hold a total of four Meta Relics at once. Meta Steeds can only hold three relics - A small trade-off for being able to also mount the beastly creature! If a Meta Relic is removed, all progress in that skill will be lost. Returning the relic to the Meta Pet will not return its skill for that relic.

Each relic ability has different effects, cool downs and application rates. The abilities will only work against untamed creatures and they will not be usable against players or other tamed creatures. Meta Skills can be applied with a Meta Stone. Purchased either from the gold sink vendor or from [shop using donation coins.

Meta Pets level up by killing creatures. All damage done to a creature is saved and then given out to damaging Meta Pets upon their death. Experience cannot be gained while in a house. A creature cannot give total experience greater than its maximum hit points. This means that you cannot farm the same creature for an indefinite amount of time. The owner of the Meta Pet must be in the general vicinity of the pet for it to gain experience. If a Meta Pet dies, it will lose experience equal to the amount of remaining hit points on the creature it was fighting. If the Meta Pet is transferred to another player, all experience progress on the current level will be lost.

Meta pet owners will be required to meet the taming requirement of the next pet level for the pet to evolve to that level. Example: 120 taming is required to evolve a level 6 dragon to level 7. A level 7 dragon can be evolved by a 120 tamer and later transfered to a 115 tamer, though a fresh level 7 will struggle to listen.

Protecting Your Pet

Warning: Meta Pets are very attractive targets for pet trappers who will try to lure your pets to their house to trap it. Depending on the level of your pet, you will need to pay a fee to regain access to the pet. For more information please see the Protecting Your Pets page.

Meta Stone

The Meta Stone is an item purchased from the Wearables Vendor or the Unique Wares Vendor. At time of writing, it cost 3 million gold pieces from the vendor. It is used to apply Meta Relics to your Meta Pet, as well as view it's level progress of Relic Skills making it an essential part of Meta Pet trainer's toolkit.

The Meta Stone will also display the taming requirement of the Meta Pet. This taming requirement can drop 0.5 every time the Meta Pet XP "rolls over" at max level. For example, a fresh Level 7 Meta Dragon will have a taming requirement of 120. If you gain another 2 million XP on the Meta Dragon, its XP will roll over and the taming requirement will be reduced by 0.5. After 8 roll overs, the taming requirement will no longer reduce. The lowest taming requirement for a Level 7 Meta Dragon is therefore 116.

Meta Relics

Meta Relics are add-ons for Meta Pets. Relics are dropped as rare loot by a variety of bosses around the world. They are one-time use only - once applied to a meta pet, the relic is gone forever but lives on as a skill for the meta pet. If you choose to remove a relic from a meta pet, it does not appear back in your backpack, but instead is gone forever. BE WARY, IF YOU WANT TO REMOVE A RELIC THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN!

Aesthetic Relics can now be applied to pets as well, but have some requirements to be met first. Pets require to be either a max evolution dragon (after feeding it fruit), at least a level 6 spider, or at least a level 6 steed.

Meta Dragon

Meta Dragons can be obtained by killing the Dragon Progenitor in a Random Dungeon Adventure or by killing Akor one of the Dungeon Bosses. Once you've killed the Dragon Progenitor, he has a chance to drop a Dragon Egg. After killing Akor there is a chance an egg will drop and if it drops, it will appear on the ground under the top level of the temple. The Dragon Egg comes in a variety of hues and determines the color of the Meta Dragon that it hatches. A Meta Dragon uses three follower slots.

Meta Dragons are hued based on the hue of the Dragon Egg obtained from the Dragon Progenitor. The following hues are possible drops:
