Talk:Guide to evolving a pet

Doesn't seems like the best way. When I LvL a pet in about 15 min or so. But using a 55 necro sac him self and let him be rezed. And above all never take monks there way to slow. See: Here --   † F1 ©  Talk  14:23, December 27, 2009 (UTC)


 * I was actually already writing up a guide for that method, so here it is. A fast-casting mesmer makes it a LOT faster than monks.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 16:02, December 27, 2009 (UTC)

merge with dire pet guide
I think this guide pretty much makes that article obsolete, since you'll get the dire version unlocked anyway, and the vampiric weapon method is MUCH quicker than waiting for the stupid animal to kill you 300 times. With the addition of the Menagerie, there's no longer any reason to level your pet anywhere else. &mdash;Dr Ishmael 16:11, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * There are currently three guides with similar intent:
 * This one
 * Death-leveling animal companions
 * Guide to evolving a dire pet
 * Is there any reason why we should not merge all three?  &mdash; Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 17:38, December 27, 2009 (UTC)


 * I didn't even know the second one existed. It's basically the same as this guide, except: 1) it's pre-Menagerie, so it's written with a focus on DLing in explorable areas; 1a) there are some pets you simply can't DL in explorables, White Moa etc; 2) it recommends 2 resmer heroes fueled by a Well of Power necro, which really wouldn't be any more efficient than the setup here (my Norgu-rezmer never ran out of energy and only rarely had to wait on recharge (because he was stupid and didn't maintain Mantra of Recovery)).
 * Thus, I still think that this guide supersedes both of those. There might be some info from the "dire pet" guide that we could retain here, but honestly, the Menagerie has made pet training so darn quick and easy that I can't think of any reason to go in-depth on other methods of leveling pets.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 03:40, December 28, 2009 (UTC)
