Editing Guide to Taming and Raising Pets (section)

== Legendary Pets & Mounts ==
While most pets are available by taming monsters throughout the world, there are some pets that can only be obtained through commerce, and those are the two legendary pets: the Blazing Phoenix and the Baby Hercules. The only way to obtain one of these two powerful pets is to purchase or trade for the boutique items "Battle Packs" in order to gain "Phoenix Feathers" or "Sources of Force." Once a player has collected either 9999 Phoenix Feathers or 9999 Sources of Force, they can trade these to Mrs. Zoologist (586,620) in Archosaur to obtain either a Blazing Phoenix or Baby Hercules Pet Egg Ticket. This Ticket is tradeable; however once it is exchanged to the Pet Manager for a Blazing Phoenix or Baby Hercules Pet Egg, the egg cannot be traded.

Phoenix Feathers and Sources of Force are interchangeable, as they can be traded in stacks of 100 to the Pet Manager for the preferred unit.

While the Pet bag is used primarily for battle pets, slots must also be available in order for Ground mounts to be hatched. Mounts, as they are creatures, also are traded and purchased as Pet Eggs, although they cannot be tamed throughout the world. Similarly to battle pets, mounts require space in the pet bag, hatching a reverting fees, and appropriate feed. Feeding a ground mount still increases loyalty, however loyalty in this instance determines the chance that the mount will persevere when attacked by an enemy, rather than immediately stow to the Pet Bag.  For a full list see the [[Ground|Ground Mounts]] article.

The speed of the mount increases as the mount levels (mounts level according to their use), however the maximum speed is set at one meter per second higher than the minimum, for all currently released mounts. It is possible, however, to further increase the speed of a mount, through the use of spurs. Spurs of Alacrity are used to upgrade an 8m/s mount to a 9m/s mount (while lowering the level req. from 40 to 20), while Galewind Spurs upgrade a 9m/s mount to a 10m/s mount (while lowering the level req. from 60 to 40). Mounts can be spurred until their maximum speed reached 11m/s.
