Fire Beetle Build

[Turkish]

So I tamed my first Fire Beetle today, and it came out over 93% on the intensity scale. I'm not sure if this is rare, or if they are all high on the scale, but I'm curious if you all have built any Fire Beetles that were fun to use. I mostly do spawns, or peerless type gaming. It would be cool to have a strong pet that can haul off my loot.

Here is my beetle : Saved Planner | uo-cah.com

What have you all done? What should I stay away from?

Ah! I just assumed but never checked. Oh well, my question remains the same but with a little less excitement.

Unlike most pets, all fire beetles spawn with the same stats except they have 70-75% fire resist. 75% is best.

Keep going on the planner and build the pet. Then save it and post.

Yeah, giant and fire beetles both make great pets. Recommend armor ignore, rune corruption, and poison for both of them. Giant beetles can also haul stuff, miners can smelt ore on fire beetles, they're basically a portable forge. Both make great fighters when fully trained up.

How about Armor Pierce instead of AI, so : AP, RC, Poison spec..Is that ok also? Ty..

I have an AP/Chiv Cu. The 10% damage bonus does not happen enough. AP does not ruin the pet but AI does more damage over time. The AP/Chiv Cu has been the main pet my Archer uses. I found a good Black Cu and built it so he can take Red AP or black AI Chiv Cu depending on what color dog he wants to take.

I did tests on Balrons and Para Balrons with dogs that only had AP or AI. The times were too close to see a difference.

Just noticed the same toon has a AP/Mystic Hiryu. Guess I dumped the AP pets on him.
