I have been playing Epic Pet Wars a while now on the iPhone and on the web site and here are a few tips to getting the most out of your pet.
- Start with a strong pet. The original selection of pets were quite weak compared to the recent additions. It always pays to download any free pets that come up as they usually come with respect points as well. Certainly in the first few dozen levels having a strong pet makes all the difference.
- You should never have to lose a battle. The simple rule for battles is ONLY fight pets that are weaker and less well defended than you are. Make sure their weapons and armour are several levels below yours. If they don't have any accessories then even better. If they have no equipment at all then you should kill them in one strike. This is easier on the website as you can refresh the battle screen if they all look too hard. I have fought 500 other pets and only lost 4 times.
- Equip only the suitable equipment. Weapons and armour are a matter of taste. I go for the ones with +HP, +Attack and +Defence. never go for any that reduce anything.
- Bosses. Only fight these when you have to and make sure you are well equipped with spells and potions when you do. You can easily defeat the early ones just by having the best equipment. Some of the more advanced ones require spells. Here you have two options. First one is HP. You can get spells that reduce H and Max HP at the same time. These are useful as they hurt the enemy but they can't heal themselves as their Max HP is diminished as well. The other approach is attack and Defence. Here you either reduce theirs and/or increase yours until it becomes a one sided battle.
- Mysterystein. I finally managed to defeat this boss. If you chuck all the strong spells at him then he just reduces tour Max HP until you are dead. It seems the way to get him is to chuck the weakest spell (B.S.O.D.) at him. this doesn't hurt him but a) stops him casting the nasty spells and b) bumps up your stats quite nicely. You want to use at least 50 on him by which point you can start attacking normally.
- Friends. This is a good site for building up your Possee. you need at least 400 by the time you reach level 100+ so add a few a day. And remember, friends are cumulative so they are shared by all your pets and are never lost.
- Have a few pets. Some of the latter levels are a bit tedious if you just log on once a day, train and log off again. Having a couple of pets keeps it interesting. It is also good to have one long term pet and another one or two practice ones.
I hope you found that useful, and don't forget to add AEGZRL.
