Pet rarity currently means very little. Pets should have innate skills and/or levels, and rare pets should be stronger or more unique.
Legendary items have special effects, so why not legendary pets too?
I agree. What is the point of making pets magic, rare, or legendary if it means nothing? Don’t really get the point of it.
It’s nice to know a drop you get is rare, but I agree there should be something that sets them apart mechanically, as well. Possibly passives, like extra gold find, or resistance. Something that makes swapping them out an interesting choice, too.
I think this is a carry over from when it was an FTP game. Rarity means more when it is FTP and you get it from a loot box. Kinda like a skin for a character
Don’t agree with that. If you put something special on rarer pets, the most common won’t be used anymore. And pet is something between vanity and utility.
