Pet

Learn how to manage your pets in World of Warcraft: Midnight, from stable management and talents to choosing the best DPS companions like wolves and cats.

Alright, let's talk about your trusty companion in World of Warcraft: Midnight – your pet! Think of this section as your quick guide to making sure your pet is as effective as possible, because honestly, they can be a huge help if you know what you're doing.

First off, you're limited by how many pets you can keep in your stable. The more slots you want, the more gold it's going to cost you, so choose wisely! You can only bring one pet out with you at a time, though. Once you've got a few, you can right-click their portrait to rename them or, if you decide they're not the right fit anymore, to let them go. A handy tip: at level 80, you can access your stable every 30 minutes, which is pretty neat.

Your pet isn't just a follower; it's got its own progression! They level up separately from you, gaining talent points around every five levels. These talents are super important for customizing their abilities and making them more powerful. Since there are so many different kinds of pets out there – pretty much any beast you can find in the wild – they all have unique diets, abilities, and talent trees. It's worth checking out a dedicated pet website if you're really trying to min-max and figure out which type best suits your playstyle.

Now, for some advanced tactics. You can create some really interesting combos with your pets, especially those that can go stealth. For these, you might need to do a bit of micromanaging, but it's totally doable. Use the 'Attack' command to send your pet in first, and then you follow up once they're close to the target. Pets that get the 'Dash' ability from their talents really shine here, as it reduces the need for constant micromanagement. Remember, Ctrl + 1 is your best friend for sending your pet ahead right before you engage, maximizing your reach and impact.

When it comes to raw damage output, if you're a Beast Mastery hunter, you'll want to aim for a wolf. Their howl ability provides the biggest DPS boost overall. After wolves, cats and ravagers are your next best bet for damage. If you're specifically looking for the absolute maximum DPS from a pet, Devilsaurs are the way to go for Beast Mastery hunters.

A cool way to catch new pets is by using an ice trap. While they're frozen, you can keep channeling your taming ability to bring them under your control. It’s a safe and effective method.

Finally, don't forget about your pet's talents and their action bar! You can put up to four of their spells on your own action bar, like 'Growl' or other abilities you want quick access to. You can even right-click these spells to have your pet auto-control them, giving you more freedom to focus on your own combat. Make sure you're actively managing these talents and abilities to get the most out of your companion!
