Should I get my herc on my high lvl veno or put it on a new veno?

I am close to getting my herc and am curious about the benefits of putting it on a lvl 1 veno and leveling versus keeping it on my lvl 6x veno.

Thoughts? I have opinions both ways, but am curious about what others think.

Thank you

    Eehm, at high lvl veno you can use it right away, at the lvl 1 veno it's hardly anymore worth than your avarage wolfling/scorpion?

    Everything that I have read says that once you trade your ticket into a herc that you cannot move, sell, or trade.

    Lvling with the pet has some advantages. I agree. I am curious about the increase ability to earn coin at a low lvl versus at a high level.

    i got my herc in my 70s and was able to level it to mid 50s in about 4 hours.

    up to thirtys at long legged toxicons at the circle of trees near silver pool

    up to 40s the bon variant on the little peninsula near anglers,

    up to 50's at the distant dustrwraiths by sundown,

    after that with it will already be a better tank pet than anything else you could get, with buffs.

    additionally, once you get to the dustwriaths, you can start teaching yourself to aoe grind, reflect is a beautiful thing.

    edit: as for money making, the only thing you really make money off of when lower level grinding is rough fur, glue, and oils, you will make more money at higher levels. especially since the mobs you grind on for glue, oil and fur (for the most part) are ranged, so a herc wont help you out all that much.

    Even bound items can be put in account stach. The item would have to specificly say 'can't be put in account stach', or you can.. put it in account stachb:laugh

    And at low lvls, there is not much need for an uber tank pet, as even your DD pet can often be enough.

    Also importent to ask: Do you want to go through low lvl quests and boringness again just so you can lvl alongside the herc? Or do you want to get some action right away? (unles you'd go with oracles, but than you'd outlevel your herc just as much)

    You guys bring up many good points and have influenced me to keep it on my current veno. I also reflected on the fact that I have an upgraded Drake and a tome that are bound to my current veno..... Therefore I could not use them anyway. It would be a waste to start over.

    Thank you very much for you time to respond and give me confirmation.

    Have great day
