Good Tank Pet?

My gf keeps saying she needs a good tank pet. I want to get her one but I don't exactly have all the money in the world(can't buy her a herc), and can't catch one myself because, as you can see, I'm not a veno.

She's level 67 and I'm not entirely sure she's up to training a pet from level 20 or something. Any suggestions?

    Maybe level up one of those golems? I'm not a Veno, but I've always heard that's a decent secondary.

    Yeah, it's me. Don't read to much into it, though; I'm only here for myself now, killin' time and chillin' when need-be. So sue me. Tch...

    Like I said I don;t think she's up to leveling up a low level pet. She might be willing to but I'm not sure.

    Well, she should either be ready, then, to try to tame a pet that will be a higher level but not as good at tanking anything, or, show her mice bashing in the cube and how quickly she can level low level pets up. She can get her pet up to her level in a matter of a few hours.

    Get a Shikou Valorian, the magmite from fb 59. It will save your gf a lot of time leveling and will handle pretty much any job a non herc pet should handle. It's also got decent damage. Ask any veno friend doing BH runs in there or have your girlfirend tame it herself, i'm not exactly sure but i think you can find one in the non elemental area of the instance.

    Nope, no shikou outside of the earth valley, but you can simply walk under the brigdes to dodge the others valley's gatekeeper and kill the earth one. I would recommend for her to tank the shikou until health is low enough to tame and have you stun it(be it dagger-less if needed) to keep her and her pet alive during the slow tame casting.

    I been using a Glacial Walker, one of the new pets from Tideborn expansion, is similar to the magnamite lvl 17/ Good thing is it came with 3 skills lvl 2, wich are tough, roar and icicle, worst part is that it is lvl 19. But she can use room 4 in cube to lvl up the pet, it will take around half day but it is good pet, i been tanking even TT 1-2 with it. And in case she pet can't hold agro, she can get bash or flesh ream as the fourth skill

    I have a few pets on hand .. air, water & land. My land pet being my fav to play with... It's a dark wanderer (the grim reaper lookin guy on the horse) in case you have not seen one yet.

    I don't see a lot of Veno's with them but I find personally, that it works very well for me. It's a lv 36 and can take on two critters at once quite easily, with very little help from my end.

    Of course, only my opinion but I'm rather enjoying running amok with it :)
    I was standing in the park wondering why frisbee's got bigger as they get closer. Then it hit me...
