How to unlock the A Friend Indeed achievement

  • Removed Gamer
    Gamer has been removed
    Pets can be won in PET RESCUE events or bought for gems in PET RESCUE shops (when a pet rescue event is active)

    See the GAMES tab to see when the next pet rescue starts. There are two types of PET RESCUE events:

    - a scheduled event - once per week, lasts 24 hours
    - a pet gnome event - unlocks for the entire guild for 1 hour only. One of the players in the guild needs to fnd a PET GNOME in PVP (or PVP casual or in ARENA). The gnome drop rate seems to be very low though.

    (Only one event can be active at a time, so if you get a pet gnome while another event is active, you only get pet food).

    LEVEL CAP

    You need 31 copies of the same pet to 'ascend' them to the highest stage where the level cap is 20.

    When you spend gems in the PET RESCUE shop, you get a guaranteed number of pets plus a chance to get more. You get about 1 guaranteed pet per 100 gems spent. Tier VII shop reward can be purchased MULTIPLE TIMES. It costs 100 gems and guarantees 1 pet.

    This is the list of rewards in the shop:

    Tier 1 (costs 25 gems): 1 basket
    Tier 2 (costs 50 gems): 2 baskets
    Tier 3 (costs 100 gems): 3 baskets, 1 pet guaranteed
    Tier 4 (costs 200 gems): 4 baskets, 2 pets guaranteed
    Tier 5 (costs 300 gems): 5 baskets, 3 pets guaranteed
    Tier 6 (costs 400 gems): 6 baskets, 4 pets guaranteed
    Tier 7 (costs 100 gems): 2 baskets, 1 pet guarnteed - can be purchased repeatedly

    Baskets contain pet food, jewels or the pet. The pet drop rate in baskets is low, though. Maybe one in five, one in ten.

    The safest (not fastest) way to do this would be saving up about +/-3000 gems and then going all out in the pet rescue shop.

    The PET RESCUE shop is only accessible during the event! There's no going back one the event is finished.

    PET FEEDING:

    To level up a pet, you will need pet food, which can be obtained in the following ways:

    - crafted at the soul forge (one piece of food costs 1000 souls + 125 precious stones of the specific color)
    - bought in pet rescue shops (baskets)
    - won in pet rescue
    - gained by 'disenchanting' extra pets you don't need - isn't this bizzare - turning pets you don't need to pet food? :-)
    - received on some days by logging into the game (see the in game calendar)

    Feeding the pet the right color food will give them 100 level points, the universal white food will give them 50 level points and the wrong color food will only give them 10 level points.

    Upgrading to level 2 costs 100 level points. Every new level costs 50 lvl points more than the previous one.

    lvl 2 - 100 level points
    lvl 3 - +150 level points (250 in total)
    lvl4 - +200 level points (450 in total)
    lvl5 - +250 level points (700 in total)
    ...
    lvl20 - 10450 LEVEL POINTS in total! (if my calculations are correct)

    ALTERNATIVE LEVEL 20 PETS
    To get a level 20 PET, you can also:

    - Get 2500 renown in any underworld faction, this will earn you all the necessary copies of the faction pet.
    - Get one in each campaign - you need to buy the Elite Pass (for real money), though, but if you get all the stars, you will get all the copies of the campaign pet by week 10.

    Har MiggidoJust buy the elite pass in the monthly event and hit all tasks. It'll will give you enough copies of the event pet to upgrade it to myrhic

    Throni360But not enough food for lvl 20. The whole guide is useful.

    Brainiac427It’s very easy to get 31 copies of a pet during a Legends Reborn event, like the one happening now (July 31 to August 13, 2023). The problem is being able to feed it enough pet food to get it to level 20. I used the generic white food to get it to level 15. The problem is I need 45 colored food to get the rest of the way to level 20, and I don’t have any. The bottom line is never spend any colored food to ascend pets initially. Just use the white food until you get to level 15, and save the colored food to go the rest of the way to 20. Now I have to start saving up the colored food or craft it in the soulforge, which I think would be a waste of resources.

    Update: once I started acquiring appropriately-colored food for the pet I was trying to upgrade, I was given the option of supplementing it with the white food, so I was able to feed the pet a little bit of each to get to level 20. I would still reiterate to save as much of the six colors of food as possible and use the generic white food as much as possible in the meantime because it's the most plentiful.

    MarekVit already posted a very good solution and there is not much i have to add, but i figured something out that should speed up the whole progress. As you probably know, you can't trigger a gnome if you leave the pvp match with the retreat option in your menu. You have to win or lose the pvp match to "roll the dice" for a new chance. You can use this knowledge to your advantage. How?

    Well, if you leave a gnome pvp fight with your menu, your not "rerolling the dice" and the next pvp fight is another gnome fight. If you met a treasure or pet gnome is randomly chosen at the start of the fight, but the chance to meet a treasure gnome is much higher. With the possibilty to respawn the gnome, you can leave and reenter a pvp fight until you find a pet gnome. With other words you can change/transform your treasure gnome to a pet gnome.

    This method probably get patched in the future. Keep in mind giving this method a shot could end up with losing your treasure gnome reward in worst case.

    ScuzzyBunny posted another method in the comment section, it's nearly the same thing, but he suggest to leave the match via dashboard.
    Casual pvp, when a treasure gnome spawns press guide button and close game (DO NOT PAUSE AND "RETREAT")...launch game again, choose casual pvp, and the treasure gnome will be there again (or it will have switched to a pet gnome). If its a pet gnome play it out (ensuring you win and dont let him escape), if the treasure gnome is there again, guide, close game, relaunch, and repeat until you get the pet gnome. I did it today and I got the pet gnome on the 3rd launch...but getting the gnome to show up at all took about 50 pvp games.

    el tuaya argAa of today, I can confirm this works. Red gnome turns into green gnome.
    Be careful:
    1) do NOT re-roll for 50 gold. Keep the same opponents you see right after relaunching.
    2) pick same battle before and after closing the game. If you found the treasure gnome on the far right battle (the one that awards 3 trophies for winning) then pick that one every time until it spawns as pet gnome.
    3) Could take many many tries but it eventually works. From actually 1 try, to 16. True Story

    And it's also true that the gnome may sometimes not respawn back. It's part of the risk but the reward if it works is much higher than 100 souls or 2500 gold

    NrthrnLadMultiple tries both methods. Only got a new gnome once. Every other time the gnome evaporated.
