Two simple questions about Pets

[XemnasXIII]

I got a pet today and I noticed,on the pet window,that even Pets' got level,my baby desert wolf is Level 9..
Now I got two questions about pets:
1)Is there a way to increase a pet's level?
2)Do Pets have special effects on their owner??

[Avix_Aao~]

1) Pet level stays the same no way of increasing level.

2) Pets right now don't do anything special for the owner unless GM's think otherwise of implementing something for the pets.

Another server I played once, when pets were at loyal status- they would attack monsters when you fighting them, and also had special effects. For example- I had a smokie(his attacks sucked..only did like 50's on everything, at like..the slowest asdp possible.) but coupled with my assassin, (you had to have the pet's specific accessory on it for the special effect to work) I could actually cloak/hide past monsters and such that saw past cloaking(except mvp/boss monsters). That made grimtooth leveling in rachel dungeon a lot more effective, and made it easier getting from point A to point B without getting caught by any monsters and delaying your hunting. I wish they would implement it :< Also, some of the harder pet monsters (bapho junior, etc..) had some pretty decent attacks, so you could use them to help you level lower lvl characters a bit. The thing was, the monsters would never target the pet, so you didn't have to worry about it getting owned

The above post is completely irrelevant because pets do not help you in any way on this server, aside from looking neat.  By posting his experience on another server, Takahara has made it much easier for this thread to fall into confusion and chaos. 

1. You can't change the pet level.
2. Aside from wasting your money to get them loyal, pets do nothing special All they so is talk and make emotes from time to time when you get it to higher levels of affection.

Albeit it irrelevant, it was just thoughts I had on what I have seen of pet usage. As for your little explanation there, it was clearly redundant of the post made by Avix, and is really pointless. Obviously, you just were taking the opportunity to bash me- how cute.

1) Pet level stays the same no way of increasing level.

2) Pets right now don't do anything special for the owner unless GM's think otherwise of implementing something for the pets.

That pretty much summed up the questions asked by the OP.

Actually, I found Avix's second point to be slightly confusing because it offers hope that someday pets will be fighting machines.  I disagree with that, and don't think they ever will.

I was also only pointing out that your response was confusing.

Level does however effect the Player and the Pet...the LOWER the level the more you'll have to feed it thus it's more food more money and more concentration on the game but it'll be faster to get it to loyal and to get it to talk...the HIGHER the level the less you have to feed the pet thus less money wasted but it'll take longer to get to loyal and having it talk.

/sigh If you want it simple but detailed

1) No, Pets don't level up. Their level is based off when you capture it meaning if you capture a lvl 1 Poring all Porings are base level 1 no different no less. Higher taming item pets usual offer higher base level pets which absolutely does nothing for the owner.

2) As of this moment, they do nothing special than eat up your money little at a time and talk constantly once they become loyal. If you want something to be added on to the Pet System, Post Your Ideas towards the Suggestion Thread.

~.~ supposely for a simple post I guess I confused a lot of people when I said "Unless GM's think otherwise to implement something for it" I wasn't trying at all to provide any evidence or hope that there will be anytime soon.

If noone does it within the next few days I will be posting a suggestion towards pets being able to attack/use skills...but eh-Imma wait until someone else does it.

[Avix_Aao~]

I did post a suggestion *though I didn't know other servers kinda use the same idea aspect* but no1 actually made a comment on about Pets obtaining Loyal Status shall give the owner Added Skill point Bonus whenever having that "said" pet out. Was just a raw idea at the time, so I wanted peoples inputs on it but it died out so /meh

Pets have special abilities they can do but it doesn't work on this server.  On later updates, I saw something about different pets adding different stats to you.

Level does however effect the Player and the Pet...the LOWER the level the more often you'll have to feed it thus it's more food more money and more concentration on the game but it'll be faster to get it to loyal and to get it to talk...the HIGHER the level the less often you have to feed the pet thus less money wasted but it'll take longer to get to loyal and having it talk.

just wanted to add a little fix to help with potential confusion...
