In this section I’ll be covering my own personal thoughts on this feature. If you’re looking for how the feature works, you can find it above.
This feature has some pros and cons. Some good aspects include the pet remaining an accomplishment. Anyone walking around with a school class pet will have accomplished something great. However, one major drawback is that these pets will be ultra-rare. Only 25 players will receive the pet during any given event. On top of this, you can’t pick which school’s pet you want to receive.
During particular weeks I imagine the competition will be incredibly fierce, particularly Life. The cards given by the Life pet are very desirable. While this isn’t a bad thing, this type of competition is very unhealthy. The only measure that contributes to the leaderboards is how much time you’ve invested. Rewarding these pets based off the community progress bar might be better.
There should still be a reward for ranking high on the leader-board. It should be less impactful, like a cosmetic item. Other options include badges based on leaderboard placement. It could change based on your position, like the PvP badges. People can still be acknowledged for their achievements, but in a fairer way. This would avoid encouraging players to grind for a pet they need.
I’m interested to hear how everyone else feels about these new exclusive pets. Let me know what you think in the comments below!
I want different pet damage and more resist please healing
Honestly, the Exclusive Pet tag is still very unclear for most players and I thank you for testing it. It does seem that the Exclusive Pet must be in your pet tome if you want to receive it back, which is weird for players to comprehend. In the future though, I hope that the prizes are better for the Deckathalon event because I do feel that this rewards system was executed poorly since all you had to do was grind for the top rewards. Not really fair if all it measures is time, not individual skill. Hopefully Kingsisle learns from this and updates the Deckathalon to make rewards a bit more fair as well as making the “Exclusive Pet Altert” pop up a bit more clear.

I agree it’s a little unclear, especially at first. But that could just be because it’s a new tag that players have not seen before. If we start to see the exclusive pet tag on more pets, particularly ones outside of just the Deckathalon event, I think the meaning will be better understood alongside other more common tags. Totally agree that this event could be improved here or there, wouldn’t mind seeing another leaderboard entirely to measure something other than just time invested.
haha
How much Exclusive Pet are there in the world
Currently, the only exclusive pets are those top tier rewards from the occasional Deckathalon events.
