If you’re just returning to after skipping the past few seasons, you may notice you now have a new option in the Wardrobe: a pet. This wasn’t an option when launched, so don’t be surprised if you don’t remember this from before. Here is how to get your pet in Season 5 and start taking advantage of its added utility.
How to unlock a pet in The easiest way to unlock and gain access to your first pet in is to head to Kyovashad. Look at the northern area of Kyovashad and you should have a quest from..
.well, a Well Behaved Dog. The quest is a Priority Quest titled Faithful Companion, as should be labeled by the white quest marker.
Speak to the Well Behaved Dog, tell him he’s a good boy, and the quest will complete and unlock your first Pet, the Well Behaved Dog, Asheara the Canine. From here, head to the Wardrobe in Kyovashad and go to the Pets tab and you can equip Asheara, which will enable him as a pet for you. At the moment there are only three other obtainable pets: Alkor the Snow Leopard, Hratli the Canine, and Natalya the Tiger.
All three of these pets are unlocked by pre-ordering a specific edition of the upcoming expansion. Here is how to obtain each of the three pets: If you go with the Ultimate Edition, you will get access to all 3 pets. Despite the expansion launch being two months away, you will immediately get access to the pet in when you pre-order.
What do pets do in In , Pets aren’t just cosmetic. Regardless of which Pet you have equipped, it will follow you around and pick up some of the more in-mass materials that drop throughout your journey, including Gold, Herbs, Ore, and Crafting Materials. Instead of having to click on these resources, your Pet will automatically run to it and pick it up for you.
With a Pet equipped, you’ll only have to pick up Items and equipment, which drop a lot less than the abundant materials the Pet will auto loot for you. As such, it’s recommended that everyone at least grabs the free Asheara the Canine pet to aid you in your looting while exploring Sanctuary!.
