[Update] Skill Pets - Nick - 2016-08-22

SKILL PETS 22/08

Brand new rewards for your skilling efforts arrive in RuneScape this week in the form of nineteen new pets that can be earned by training a wide variety of skills.

Read on for more info on how to collect them, plus a link to the latest game patches and information on our upcoming live streams.



Requirements

Free-to-play players can unlock all pets except those that require training members’ only skills.RuneScape members, of course, can unlock all of them.

Unlock each pet as a random drop when training its specific skill in the ways listed below. The higher your level in a skill the higher your chances of getting its pet.

Your brand-new buddies can be used as familiar overrides, complete with their own unique animations for spawning, de-spawning, attacking, defending and special attacks.

Once you have unlocked five of these skilling pets you will also unlock the fabulous new title –“Jack of Trades”. Unlocking all these skilling pets will then get you the golden title – “Jack of All Trades”
