Pet Priorities: F2P vs Spenders.

Key Takeaways

Pet Refinement Guide

Pet Refinement and Pet Upgrades are two separate things . Refinement uses Taming Marks and affects 6 stats: Health and Lethality for each of the 3 troop types. If you've read my other guides, you already know that Health and Lethality are two of the most important stats in the game—so refining your pets is a great way to boost them.

Refinement Rarity & Thresholds

As your refinement stats increase, they hit certain thresholds and change rarity , from: Gray → Green → Blue → Purple → Gold (Legendary).
