I think in Steparu’s vid not all can get pets.
In the PvP vid I think there was 2 classes in his team that could mount them which was why they had them.
The pet did nothing but piss me off. In Beta there’s three pets.
One you buy as your companion for 100,000 something silver.
The second is 400,000 silver.
The third is for the Falconers.
The pet, while it was great to power level your lowbie characters, it would ruin my mobs on my Cryamancer by pushing them to the side when he attacked them all zZz.
My pet ended up being level 108. It was one shotting bosses on my lowbie, however the damage isn’t as insane past like… level 25 haha… great for leveling up super fast though on a nub.
Untrue. Everyone can have a companion. Some classes are just able to mount on their companion.
Okay, thanks for clearing that up. 
Why are they so expensive though? D:
I need one but I’m only half way in terms of funds. 
How’d you get one when you were still a low level? O.o
Pretty sure you get a free pet as a hunter? I think I read that in a topic somewhere… here it is.
Yes, you get a free pet as a hunter. Not sure about the other pet classes (Falconer, Cataphract) though.
I remember in RO the only mount you could get at first was the Peco Peco, but that was only for Swordsman. And even then, they really didn’t do anything other then add mobility and some skills.
Hi, beta test is ended so my opinion is here!
Well, I couldn’t get to falconeer rank (as expected) but I did got to Hunter. I like the pet system, you can buy them even if you’re not a Hunter but you can’t tell him to attack or do stuff for you (like bite some enemies or lower their defence!). The hunter skills are pretty nice too but, as almost all the archer class, lacks of AoE skills. Still, pets can be pretty useful if you lvl up them correctly, they even can tank some mob for you.
Agreed, I don’t like seeing pets everywhere.
Wouldn’t a good suggestion towards this topic be having an option to remove pets from the screen, or remove other characters not in a party etc… Since i my self like to collect things i would love to have a pet just to hang with me running around adds to the gameplay it would be harsh to harm others making it so they can’t have a pet since some players don’t want to have one or find them a nuisance.
I agree until I get a better graphics card. Then I’ll disagree 
having a pet is actually cute, it reminds me of trickster xD
What kind of MMORPG would it be if you can hide the other players?? o.O thell me that it didn’t actually exists somewhere D:
They give you a “free pet” ticket but only works for the cheaper one
just removing it from my screen isn’t the point … as someone who wants to do the most damage i have to get a pet even if it’s very little extra damage … but i hate pets why do i have to get one to do the most possible damage either in pve or pvp ? that’s my point … i just don’t want to have to get a pet to do more damage that’s all.
also sorry for bringing an old topic its just a really important thing for me
Everyone has pet in Ragnarok. But I didn’'t see the problem on it
I hope we will able to ride them (all classes) this time :’<
omg please read the comments before replying … ragnarok’s pets don’t do damage … that’s why i’m not forced to use them … but in tos they do damage so i’ll be forced to use them
In general I’m not against everyone having a fighting pet but if that is the goal we need a much greater variety of them; mainly referring to sprites, that is. Otherwise, with time the game will only become uglier.
After all, one of the primary reasons why this is game has got so much attention are the graphics, including the costumes and their diversity. Then, suddenly, IMC is plastering the game with identical pets which due to their power and accessibility everyone’s heavily encouraged to purchase.
If the devs can’t at least offer 10-20 different sprites on release than I’d rather have the mobs converted to useless pets just as in RO.
