BE PREPARED, THIS GUIDE’S GONNA GET LONG.
First, it takes a lot of patience, Luck, and dedication.
And Gold. Lots and Lots of Gold. Pet Hatching usually takes from 50k to 60k Gold for one hatch, and it’s a 50/50 shot of getting the pet you want back. I recommend Going for pets that are your School that give you a blade. I find the best way to earn Gold is Fishing.
Not even that, but you’ll need Mega Snacks. The BEST way to get those is to farm two of the most important plants in Mega Snack Farming- Couch Potatoes and Evil Magma Peas.
Before you say anything about paying for crowns, you really don’t have to! Those seeds are farm-able by mobs in Mirage and Empyrea, not just bosses! You can even wait on their Elders for x2 Garden Rewards, so you not only get their Mega Snacks x2, but these seeds are returned to you, so you’d get DOUBLE the seeds!
Now comes the Training. Training is the hardest part, as it takes time and Energy. I recommend getting some Energy Gear during holidays like Halloween and Christmas; The Light Elf Set from Halloween and/or the Snowdrifter Set from Christmas are your best bet. Second Best is always the Greenwarden Energetic Set from the Wyvern’s Hoard. Try Training during Double Pet XP for faster results.
Specific Talents you’d likely be going for are the following:
Giver and Dealer for your own School (Up to +6% and +9% Damage of your school, respectively)
Pain-Giver (Up to +6% Damage Outright)
Striker and Assailant of your school, and/or Universal (Up to +25 and +30 to critical of your school, respectively)
Spell-Defy and Spell Proof (Up to +5% and +10% Spell Damage Resist, respectively)
Element-Proof (Up to 15% Resist on a specific school)
Depending on your style of play, you’ll need to mix and match certain talents. In addition, you’ll want to keep an eye on your Pet’s Stats- Those Stats determine the amount of the Talent that comes through.
Damage-boosting Talents are determined by Strength, Will, and Overall Power.
Critical-Boosting Talents are determined by Agility, Will, and overall Power.
Defense-Boosting Talents are determined by Strength, Agility, and overall Power.
The Heal-Boosting Talent ‘Healer’ is likely determined by Strength, Will, and overall power.
Going up to Mega, your Pet will only have five slots for these talents, one for each age progression. If a pet gets a talent that you weren’t wanting, it is ‘considered’ a ‘fail pet.’, but if you can make it work, more power to you!
Sometimes it’s recommended to go all the way to Ultra, to unlock the Ultra Jewel capability. The best Talents are almost always in Ultra Jewels, so if you find them while fighting mobs, you can keep them as a substitute so that you have six talents rather than five.
The Hatchmaking Kiosk is your friend. Unless you want a Pet from a specific Pack, like a Mummy Cat or a Bumblebee, you’ll still have to find someone with it to hatch with, but there’s a possibility you’ll find those pets in other areas. (Looking at you, Ra; I still want my Mummy Cat!!!) Those pets usually have the talents you’re looking for. And don’t be afraid to put your Pet into the Kiosk- If people hatch with it, you’ll earn Hatch Peppers, which are rare crafting reagents for all sorts of things, like Hatching Elixirs and a personal Hatchmaking Kiosk for your house. The Kiosk shows all of the Pet’s unlocked talents.
All in all, don’t be discouraged if you get a pet that doesn’t match exactly what you need on the first try. Like I said before; It takes a lot of time, patience, and Luck.
Good luck on getting your new Furry/Scaly/Feathery/whatever-y friend!
