			Legendary pets are a little different. The Hercules and the Phoenix are land and air pets respectively but once they evolve (at level 100) they can be used in water, air and land. The legendary pets Monkey King and Harpy can be used in water, air and land from level 1.

	A lot of venomancers use the Glacial Walker as their main tank pet when they cannot afford a Hercules or until they buy one. It is currently the best substitute to the Baby Hercules Pet. Another popular choice is the Shaodu Cub (which sometimes is replaced by the Armored Bear at lvl80) due to the nice balance of defenses as well as the legendary pet skill Pounce that comes with them. Most of the time venomancers opt to acquire the Baby Hercules.		A lot of venomancers use the Glacial Walker as their main tank pet when they cannot afford a Hercules or until they buy one.

For DPS, venomancers usually choose between the Dark Wanderer or the Varicose Scorpion. The Baby Blazing Phoenix is the best DPS pet, but is an air pet and therefore cannot be used in instances. After level 100, the evolved Phoenix can swim and can be used in instances.

			After the introduction of the newest legendary pets, the Harpy is arguably the best DPS pet as of now surpassing the Phoenix post-evolution. Prior the evolution the Harpy and the Phoenix are probably equal. The Harpy's advantage is that it's ranged (doesn't have a single melee attack), has AOE attacks and can be taken on land, in the air and underwater since level 1.

	For air combat venomancer will either choose between a tank or a DD. For tanking, there is no other option than the Windwalking Piggy, as an alternative to the Baby Blazing Phoenix. For a good DD air pet the choices are usually between Cloud Skatefish and Petite Sawfly. Most of the time venomancers opt to acquire the Baby Blazing Phoenix which is the best air DD and tank.

			After the introduction of the newest legendary pets, the Harpy and the Monkey King can serve as decent pets for both DDing and tanking in the air. Evolved Hercules can also fly.

	For water combat and quests most venomancers tame any water pet of their level range and use it just for the quests until they reach level 80 and stick with the Celestial Plumpfish. Some venomancers that have patience level up the Abysmal Turtle or the Highlands Tortoise as it has better stats at higher levels than the Plumpfish.

	For pulls, venomancers choose either a ranged pet or a fast pet. I suggest having both types if your pet bag has enough slots.
