Which pet is the best?

Alright, I'm just looking for an idea of what pets someone thinks is the best. I would just like the pet you think is best then the reasons why. The main reason behind this board is because I have been through about 10 pets in the last week. I am unable to pick one and stick to it and I'm really quite desprate to find a pet. I'll take just about any pet, but I'm looking more at the group that grows in size over time. Anyone who can give me a hand I will be really thankful for.

the only difference between pets is the damage type (slashing, piercing, blunt). i beleive black bears have an attack skill which does no extra damage but triggers weapon spells and paragon shouts, not sure though. over all its just a matter of what you think looks cooler.

Pick the pet that matches you....thats what most people do.

So the answer is: It really makes no difference, except the bear is worse than all the others.

The only important thing is the bond you share

Yeah Foreal hey, just choose the pet you like the most and get it... They all the same (Sept the bear which is slower).

Personally, I like the Snow Wolf cos she howls every now and then and sounds mean when she attacks... and she's just sooo pretty!!! heehhehe

I like my Aggresive Hyena just sold my wolf for 100g w00t

Well I have chosen. I picked a Dune Lizard and as of right now, my scaley lil friend is a lvl 15 dire lizard. I found the best place to level them and it works great! ^^

ahhh i use a dire black widow
it will cost u 25k to get it but it is worth having a giant spider by your side

but as sed before its a matter of skin of the pet as to wat u think looks kool

Cheers Wilko :P

25K? lol... My guildie got his for 10K...

As had been said, the only real difference between pets is the type of damage they do. Bears are a little slower on DPS, but they are the largest and may make the best 'meat shield'. As far as pets that 'grow', check out GuildWiki to see which ones they are.

I've had many, many different pets (every cat, a wolf, strider, Moa, black Moa, spider, bear, etc.), but in the end I settled on a Lynx named Tigger Tu because he looks like one of my r/l pets, Tigger. (even more so than a Tiger, which is too orange.)

Btw, even 10k for a spider is ridiculous. Just go to the Underworld and get your own for free. During the last free-access-to-UW weekend, a Guildie and I (with Heroes) did the quest that gets you the spider several times (not that we wanted, or got, one). If you want to know the details of which quests to do, etc., just consult the aforementioned GuildWiki.

Btw, even though I think 10k (or 25k) is a crazy price to pay for a spider, it is (as I often say) only "play money", so go for it.

Don't Get The Black Bear. Brutal Mauling Is The Most Useless Thing Ever.

Pets are just there to show status. Most people go for the rarest pet to get.

I've got a hyena atm after having a black moa, a tiger and a crab.

1st place: Hyena (they just look so tough and make funny noises)
2nd place: Dune Lizard
3rd place: a tie between the white tiger and the blue crab.
