Pet skills from the gacha

Two gacha machines hand out pet skill books: Tamer's Codex, where every book is a named Lv75 book and you choose your pity prize, and Tamer's Fortune, whose books teach a random skill. Both open from the Events window in game. A book is used from your bag on an open skill slot; see Skills and books.

How books work

Every skill line has four ranks, taught by books for Lv15, Lv35, Lv55 and Lv75. The pet must have reached the book's level, and a higher book teaches a stronger rank of the same skill. A named book (for example Fierce (Lv75)) always teaches that skill; a Pet Skill Book teaches one skill drawn from the list when you use it.

Every pet skill book is tradable, so books you do not need can be sold on the Marketplace.

Which machine gives what

Tamer's Codex

The pet skill machine. Its four headline books are Guardian's Might, Resonance, Bulwark Wrath and Battle Instinct, all Lv75. Before your first pull you choose which of the four your pity prize will be, and you can change that choice later. The machine also holds the Lv75 book of every other skill on this page, the Pet Skill Slot Key, Advanced Fusion Stone EX, Advanced Fusion Stone+, Low-Grade Fusion Stone EX and Pet Training Cards.

Tamer's Fortune

Holds the random Pet Skill Book at all four levels (Lv15, Lv35, Lv55 and Lv75) and the Pet Skill Slot Key, beside its soul orbs and other prizes. A random book never teaches Bulwark Wrath or Battle Instinct: those two come only as named books.

Outside the gacha

Named books of every level can also be bought from other players on the Commodity Exchange, and the Tamer Store sells random Pet Skill Books and Pet Skill Chests.

The two new skills

• Bulwark Wrath Passive
  Raises the pet's Physical Defense and Magic Resistance, then turns part of that defense into attack: Physical Defense adds Physical Attack and Magic Resistance adds Magic Attack and elemental damage. The pet keeps its full defenses.
• Battle Instinct Passive
  Changes with the pet's row in battle. In the front row it works like Steelbone Armor and softens physical hits; in the back row it works like Fierce, Elemental Fury and Sacred Infusion together, raising physical, fire, ice, holy and shadow damage.

Passive skills

Passive skills work on their own, all the time, and take no turn.

• Guardian's Might
  Raises the pet's maximum HP.
• Resonance
  Strengthens what the pet lends you while it is in the Possession position.
• Fierce
  Raises physical damage.
• Elemental Fury
  Raises fire and ice damage.
• Sacred Infusion
  Raises holy and shadow damage.
• Mana Focus
  Raises the pet's maximum MP.
• Steelbone Armor
  Absorbs part of every physical hit the pet takes.
• Demon Ward
  Absorbs part of every magic hit the pet takes.
• Ambush
  The pet starts each battle with its action bar already partly filled, so it moves sooner.
• Swiftness
  The pet's action bar fills faster while its HP is high.
• Fury
  Physical and magic critical hits strike harder while the pet's HP is low.
• Sprite Force
  The pet's skills cost less MP.

Active skills

Active skills take the pet's turn, in the order they sit on the pet's bar next to your hotbar.

• Dark Surge
  A physical strike down one enemy lane, front and back, that also lowers each target's magic attack for a while.

  A heavy shadow strike on one enemy, with a chance to seal its skills for a few seconds.
