Vindictus Gremlin Pet Guide by Nikorin

There are 4 types of gremlins:
1. Baby (Tiny in NA) – it’s yellow, normal one. The cheapest. (left side of top picture) It costs 7900 NX.
2. Husky (Punk in NA) – it’s black and white and his fur looks similiar to Husky’s fur. (right side of top picture) It costs 8900 NX.
3. Forest – the newest one in Vindictus. It’s pink, has red eyes and a leaf at top of his head. (right side of down picture) It costs 9900 NX.
4. Armored (War in NA) – it’s wearing armor and a little backpack. The most expensive. (left side of down picture) It costs 9900 NX.

And Halloween Ghost Pet – it looks like ghost-gremlin and it’s available only for limited time. It costs 9900 NX.

Every type you can buy in the depot (right-down corner of your Vindictus screen).
They last only 2 hours dungeon-time a day. After 2 hours you can’t summon them in dungeon untill next day but you can do it in town.
They can’t be summoned in 24-man raids.

Pet will get 20% of the Battle Exp after a battle. Its max level is 30.

You can own every type of gremlin but summon only 1 at a time. They’re summonable by every character of your account (For example you have Kai and Evie and bought Forest gremlin. Your evie summons it, then you change your character to Kai and he can summon your gremlin too).

Pet skills:
Gremlin has 2 skills: Great Defense and Item Pickup. He will use them only when his fullness is fuller than 29%.

Great defense
On level 10 your gremlin will have a skill Great Defense. It’s a def-buff for 1 minute and it’s casted on you only once at the beginning of the dungeon.
Forest, Husky and Baby gremlins have 500 def buff.
Armored gremlin and Halloween Ghost pet have 600 def buff.
Cooldown – 5 minutes.

Item pickup
Your pet will pick-up evil cores for you. It works for all evil cores, ergs, magic powders and even bugged items! (like Ancient Crystal on the roof…)

Pet fullness:

You need to keep your pet full by feeding it with pet food.
Fullness level of your pet is lower after every battle. When your pet is fighting a lot it will get low faster.
When it’s full it will have more ATT and DEF (up to 200 – need proof!!)
At 29% fullness and under, your pet can not use skills any more. That is, the defense buff and picking up loot. You will get notification “Your pet cannot use any skills because its Fullness is too low” after entering a battle.

In town he will have “hungry” icon above its head.
You should feed your pet often if you want it to use skills!!
If your pet hits 0 fullness he will still gain EXP and you still can summon it.

Pet food:
 
There are 2 kinds of pet food.

1st (left side) is a Normal Pet Food and you can craft it near the bar in Rocheste. To do this you must buy a new pet-food recipe book.

You don’t need any cooking expertise to craft this food (this can change!)
