Pet Upgrade Strategies

Follow these expert tips to upgrade your pets efficiently:

1. Prioritize High-Value Pets

Focus your upgrade materials on S-tier pets like Kitsune, Disco Bee, and T-Rex first. These pets provide the best farming bonuses and are worth the investment.

2. Farm Required Materials in Advance

Before attempting an upgrade, gather all required materials. This prevents interrupting your farming flow and ensures smooth progression.

3. Use Events to Your Advantage

During special events, upgrade materials are often discounted or available in greater quantities. Plan your major upgrades around these events.

4. Balance Your Pet Collection

Don't upgrade just one pet - maintain a balanced team with farming pets, gathering pets, and protection pets all at similar levels.
