The Pet Battles System are finally available. The new build brought us a lot of changes but this is the one that most of you expected the most... I guess.
The Pet Battle System is still not ready, but now a few more pets have usable abilities, the show info works and tells you where you can find that specific pet, and it also has a complete new User Interface.

From now on you can find your mounts and companion pets in your micro-menu. Check the screenshots below to see how it looks like at the moment.

Here is what we noticed with this pet battle system:
  • All the pets are now account-wide.
  • Seems like all your characters will use the same pets setup, but you can change it anytime between battles.
  • To be able to battle other pets or to track them, you must visit Pet Battle Trainers.
  • You can make teams of three pets and the experience you gain from battles is even shared between them.
  • Seems link only those pets that actually fight will get experience.
  • The fights are turn-based style.
  • The pet skills are available at level 0, 3 and 5.
  • A bunch of achievements were added for the Pet Battle System.
Check the following screenshots if you like to see how the new UI looks like:

If you like to see my very first pet battle (where I fight a might cockroach!) take a look at the following video:

If you have any questions I'm here to answer them. Also, let me know what do you think about this early preview of this new system.

Thanks for posting this.

I had no idea what to expect, but it did seem a little slow to me. A bit like american football - lots of long pauses in between brief moments of action :-)

These battles seem to be pretty cool.

What's the pets level cap? I wonder if it is possible to get all those 500 pets to max level. Heh.
