I'll let you know in a bit. Waiting on a few pets to bond before taking them on serious training runs.
Spider definitely the spider... I should see what a wolf spider does when you train it up... And I might look into my ole Frost Spider... but I think I can only take her to 3 slots... haven't checked but I think she's limited to 3 which is sad.
And actually liking the tiger more... before it was rather lame... but now I think I like it... I'd like it better than a Cu but some (*&#$(& on the DEV team seems adamant that we can't ride the #&$(&($ thing.

That's not completely true. Some have different damage types which is a lot bigger a deal then some realize.
They can't all learn the same abilities, some have overcapped stats, and they have different damage types. There are quite a few different builds of different types of pets.
I've seen people with Dread Spiders that look totally evil, I'm keen to train one. I got a Wolf Spider to tier 1 and it was leveling very quickly which was nice.
Well for a long time I've owned two fully trained very wicked Wolf Spiders and a Frost Spider also fully trained but they are rather squishy
Lesser Hiryus, Wild Tiger, Blue Beetle, Hiryus, Tsuki Wolf, Fire Beetle, Reptalon , 16th anni pony have panned out to be my favorite and most used pets.
The lesser Hiryu in the end becomes more versatile and an overall better pet than the Full Hiryu usually my first choice to take hunting. All of my Hiryus lesser and full get 120 parry 120 bushido 120 wrestle, anat and tactics and some I will burn Med, focus and resist scrolls on. Between 20 HPR and 40% Parrying they are almost unkillable. Throw in a AOE and Armor Ignore plus their natural with Bushido whirl wind and they are rideable. That makes Hiryus my top pick.
The Wild Tigers are just straight up brawlers and have the best Combat Graphic. They would be my first choice if they were rideable.
Blue Beetles while not my overall first choice, are my first choice for my tamer treasure hunter. The are tough and you can load them up with all of the greater and major chest loot to trash for points or drop off for unraveling for relic frags.
Hiryus make the list because while ultimately not as versatile in training as the Lesser Hiryu they have pretty colors and we all know pretty colors are more important than stats
Seriously though they are tanks and hard to kill.
Tsuki Wolves with their necro, Life leech and other attributes make them a must have in the stable for certain activities.
After adding taming to my miner the fire beetle at 5 slot allows me to mine just about any place the urge strikes me.
Reptalon while overall not thrilled with them, I finally found one that was able to be trained up to very good pet for some things I hunt.
The 16th anni pony, only being a 3 slot comes in at only 97 taming to use and control and by adding 70 taming and lore and jeweling it up to 100 on some of my fighter type toons the 3 slot pony has proven to be well worth 140 skill points and a couple of jewel properties lost. Durable hits hard and gives your PvM general purpose fighter type a lot more punch. The toon I run him most on is 120 Bushido 120 Parry 100 necro 120 swords 120 tactics 70 tame 70 lore with a high MR/MI/ Stam increase suit. The jewels are 15 tame 15 lore HCI DCI and 8 dex pieces . Proven to be a effective template for me and almost like swinging another weapon. The pony also doesn't require a lot of vetting with 20 HPR and all 80s primary resist and 45 cold. The pony replaced the armor plated pickle (Swampy) this toon used to ride.

I'm right there with you on the lessers. Their grasping claw plus onslaught drops physical resist drastically on mobs. If only we could get rid of dismount (useless trait for pvm)Lesser Hiryus, Wild Tiger, Blue Beetle, Hiryus, Tsuki Wolf, Fire Beetle, Reptalon , 16th anni pony have panned out to be my favorite and most used pets.

Lessers can be colored too. Unless you want more than 80 fire resist, lessers win if you train them.Hiryus make the list because while ultimately not as versatile in training as the Lesser Hiryu they have pretty colors and we all know pretty colors are more important than stats
Sure is, starts at a 2 slot all the way upto 5 slot.
Slashing, Nerve strike, Armour Ignore and Disarm.
Shares the animation of the tiger so it looks awesome when fighting.
If you want a "mage" type pet then there are others way better but if you just want a shredding killing machine.....I think we have a winner
I have a pig called sketch, training him up I can send you pics
Cus with chivalry are awesome. This build brought so many darn good pet combos.
Seriously, I am so happy I don't have to even use those turtles and overgrown fire breathing chicken any more.

I really love my Fire Steed. Originally I wanted to train it with magery to be like a nightmare but I soon realized since training magery used a whole training cycle it seems like a massive waste of stats, so I trained it with Chivalry and armor ignore instead and left its natural dragon breath attack to make it a melee pet. My steed can basically solo navery with vet healing or take on a room full of balrons without needing heals for a while. With it's high fire damage it can rip through undead enemies.
Chivalry works nice, its constantly spamming consecrate weapon whenever it wears off so it's always hitting enemies in their weak spots.
I haven't noticed it cast enemy of one though? As of right now it only has about 50 chivalry so maybe it won't use it till the skill gets higher?

Lessers come in lots of colors, the greens are just the more common of the special hues.Two green colors
