Would be nice to add fighting abilities to fire beetles.
Trained up to 3 slots?
And Giant Beetles with more HPS and fighting abilities

Blue bugs have always been 3 slot pets.. Doubt they took them back to 2 slotters in revamp... have not checked though.
They go down to 1 when you start training, if I'm not mistaken.
Once you start pet training on them, they drop to 1 slot.

Good to know.. thanks. Glad I was wrong lol
These guys can learn rune corruption right? Might be a nice mount option for a warrior/tamer variant.
I am training a fire beetle right now. It starts at 1 slot, so it's a PIA. Based on TC experimentation, you can get the base damage to that of GD, and it's 100% fire. You can add rune corruption, and you can add AI. So I am hoping for a mean rideable combat pet.
Yes, but to control it, the taming skill requirement went up substantially.
I know, but do you still need lore to control stuff? It's unclear. If not a 2 slot beetle with rune corruption would be pretty handy with just 110 taming or so required.
Yeah, Rune Corruption is a much much better special.
Lore is required to order it to attack target. It works similar to normal tamed pet. Low lore will have low success chance.
Like is "taming required" the same as taming difficulty when using a control calculator? This system is so undocumented, I pity any new players.
Still, I think it could be done with some creativity.
Alright, I stoned the lore and tried to order the 2-slot beetle to attack a sheep, it didn't listen to me.
Necro.
Anyways, i have two types of Fire Beetles. The first is my all around kind of Fire Beetle, that i bring to a lot of guild hunts. He still has enough TP left to 120 all his skills.
The second Fire Beetle is nearly identical, but he has Wrestling Mastery instead of RC+AI. I use him more for solo killing stuff that is weak to Fire.

What is the benefit of wrestling mastery?
Hmmm, I have several 5 slot blue beetles and they all still have backpacks. I use em all the time.

This is a year old thread that was bumped. FYI
Pets with Wrest Mastery can randomly hit much harder than usual with their auto attack. A 3-hit Fists of Fury can deal some very high burst damage as well.
Oops, sorry, didn't see that.
