Meta Pets
Description
Meta Pets were introduced in Publish 4 on September 5th, 2014. Currently there is only one Meta Pet which is the Meta Dragon. Meta Dragons can be obtained by killing the Dragon Progenitor in a Random Dungeon Adventure. Once you've killed the Dragon Progenitor, he has a chance to drop a Dragon Egg. The Dragon Egg comes in a variety of hues and determines the color of the Meta Dragon that it hatches.
Meta Pets can learn Meta skills from Meta Relics which can also be obtained from Random Dungeon Adventures. Meta Pets can hold a total of 4 Meta Relics at once. 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.
Met Skills all have different cool downs and application rates. Meta Skills only work against untamed creatures. They will not be usable against players or other tamed creatures and are only applicable in PvM content. Meta Skills can be applied with a Meta Stone.
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 mob cannot give total experience > its max hit points. This means you cannot farm the same mob 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 mob it was fighting.
Hues
Meta Pets are hued based on the hue of the Dragon Egg obtained from the Dragon Progenitor. The following hues are possible drops:
- 1109, 1154, 1173, 2655, 2963, 1155, 1284, 971, 972, 691, 742, 811, 900
