    Well, Glacial/Wanderer/Armored Bear are all tank pets, so I'd pick the one you find the most useful and keep that one. They'd all be replaced by Herc later though.

    Eldergoth is a good ranged lurer/dd, so he would have a use even after you got Herc.

    Windwalking Piggy is an air tank. You should probably keep him so you have some kind of pet you can use in the air lol.

    so you already have 3 tanks...unless you're into pvp, sell the bear. The glacial is hits a lot stronger and the rider hits a lot faster than fluffy.

    Keep the marksman and the piggy. b:victory

    Keep the Bear , not only it is the most cool thing in PW considering pets , but it it a great luring pet (tough 5) in situation where marksman would die from a powerful AOE or surrounding mobs (rare but it may happen). + wth tough 5 and threaten it can be a good back up tank in case sth goes wrong (replacing one skill with Roar would help but generally doesnt worth it.)

    Get rid of the Glacial Immediately once u get herc. Its slow , weak to magic and bulky , let alone that his attack speed is even slower than the bears and his skills arent anything exceptional unless u have invested ur money. Glacial Sucks throw it hate it forget it.

    OK im really biased over the walkers. it is just that i have grown sick of them while other pets can do the job just fine

    Wanderer (my personal *main* pet) is a good pet and best DD (normal attacks)along with Scorpion . it outdmges ur herc , when u know u wont have any chance to tank , use the wanderer.

    Piggy is a nice air pet , and his dmg is ok when bash is lvl 5 and the pet is at max lvl.(u will still steal but a veno at 90+ steals from her pets all the time anyway) There is a small debate between using this or Sawfly (a Nix outperforms both so making a reference isnt needed) but generally it depends on playstyle. U can let a pig alone for some seconds and nothing will happen. a Sawfly will most likely die

    I think i'll keep the bear, a friend told me it would be better for frost. And i got it cheap with bash 5 b:laugh I definitly like my wanderer, seems like a nice dd for me and can take a couple of hits.

    About the air pets, i had a sawfly and found out really soon that dead pet makes no damage b:laugh so i hated it. I love howl and that my piggy barely needs any healing. Not to mention i don't see a nix in my future.

    Mmmm but i'm still not sure if i should keep the marksman or not b:surrender

    definitely keep the marksman, at least until you can get one of the cactopods from Eden to replace it. (level 89?) there's things it can pull and tank safely that no other pet can, because of the ranged attack.

    your piggy needs little healing? hm. i may have to try one, some day... my skatefish being so fragile is the really major problem with it. it can DD and hold aggro like a champ, but i find myself spam healing it if anything goes wrong.

    your glacial walker and bear are both tanks, so they're kindof in competition with one another. it's down to which one you prefer to use. on paper the walker's a better tank, but there are reasons people prefer other pets for land tanking, and you might too.

    the dark wanderer's a DD pet, though, not a tank. it's pretty tough for a DD, but it's not tank-level tough. i keep mine because i want a land DD pet, otherwise i'd egg it and bank it.

    Keep the Marksman , a range pet will always find a use somewhere.
