wait ??!?!?! so pet equipment with gem works for pet?
The bonus stat from shield works cuz i tried equipping my lionhead on my battlebird and it gained the 300+ mdef lol
You want to make a 315 weapon or two for your companion?

yes the bonus works but however windrunner lol im guessing it be hard to see if the 3 movement speed work or not since pet already runs fast if they have stamina
Equipment stats only seem to work if the Pet has them as well. The problem is that next to the displayed stats the Pet has âHiddenâ ones like basic stats e.g. Con/Str/Dex. The Basic Min/Max Damage from the 315 weapons would get averaged and added to the Pet Attack. The Bonus Min/Max shouldnât apply to the Pet (Red Gem Main Hand adds Max Attack and doesnât work) thus wasting two stats from the weapon.
Movement speed is really hard to check. I think it SHOULD work but for testing youâd need one or two Wind Runners and a Player with relative high MS. Manamana MS isnât really noticable.
What is with hounding & pointing? 
i see you guys know that weapon damage gets averaged when equipped to pets, so its better to use bows since they have the best average damage among all weapons if im not mistaken. and they mostly have 3 gem slots, if youre crazy, you could try placing green gems (yes they work on pet weapon slot).
before equipping weapons on pet, try to find a lv16 squire weapon buff. they dont expire when equipped on pet
red gem on sub weapon// shields works on pet. i have 2 didel shield w/ lv6 red gems equipped on my pet.
i have yet to find out what other stats affect pets. my shade armors evasion doesnt work on pet

Good thinking, didnât even think about squire buffs to pet weapons.
i really just wanted to boost my companion damage and it surprised me as well that it doesnt expire. theres so little info regarding companions and their equips and its quite hard and sometimes expensive to experiment.
iâm aiming for 2 +5 Light Gorithos for my pet now, and will place lv5 green gems on all 3 slots. my lv8 rush dog w/ lv40 attributes can deal 15k damage no crit atm, when it does, it hits 20k+
Hi Mawsiee 
If I may ask, why are you playing around crit? Is petâs crit rate dependable pvp-wise?
Also, may I know your lvl 330 petâs base atk?
Thanks!
idk if it would be dependable pvp-wise but right now i have around almost 300 crit rate for my pet (doesnt have green gems yet). I remade my hunter, since i want to go hunter c3 this time
[details=My Pet with Equips]
Pet is wearing +5 Khasti Bow and no ups Wreech Bow w/ lv16 squire weapon buff for weapons
2 Didel Tower Shield w/ 2 lv6 Red Gems each for armors
I havent buffed praise yet there so imagine additional 45 attack/crit rate/accuracy
[/details]
My Pet w/o Equips
heres my penguin without equips (i have bought some crit rate and attack stats from pet trainer)
my Pet isnt 330 yet. maybe soon
So itâs confirmed that gems in weapon will affect the pets stats? Like reds and yellows? And the same for off-hands right? Looks like I need to get me one of thoes cash shop companion 
@Mawsiee is it me or ur picture doesnt show ur pet stats at all ? lol only the name/exp/stamina/on off lol
yes tho i dnt think pet crit by themselves tho i think its from our own crit rate otherwise why would we crit alot at least for me i crit often and i never boost its crit rate or gave green gem on equipment for it
Critical rate from the pet and the archer are two distinct things, and the pet critical rate doesnât matter for most of hunter skills, only exception is: Rush dog, this skill is the only skill to 100% use only pet stats. any other skill uses the archer stats and now with an attribute 30% of the pet attack aswell.
So, when coursing / retrieve crit, theyâre using the archer crit rate, when rush dog crits itâs the pet crit rate.
tht kinda answers the relevancy of putting green gem to slot for pet equipment lol
click picture so you can see it fully
pet can crit, rush dog crits, you just dont see a yellow text. try looking at your rush dog damage. green gems work, red gems on main hand weapon doesnt. i have no idea about other gems
edit:
as @Composition has said, only rush dog uses pet crit rate, coursing/snatching/retrieve uses archerâs own crit rate. pets normal attack uses pet crit rate
Is this the new âtrain ground companionâ attribute?
