Pets in Ragnarok Violet are very significant to players not only because they pick the spoils of war for you and give bonuses to your characters — but more importantly, they keep you company during your adventures in this single-player RPG. Imagine playing the game all by yourself. If I didn't have my pets with me, I would have gone crazy! Mwa-ha-ha-ha-haaa! Seriously, it would've been too boring and monotonous a game. /swt
Anyways, if you want to acquire a pet, please read the taming guide below. If you want to check what each pet monster does for your character, please read the article Ragnarok Violet - Pet List / Guide / Database.

HOW TO TAME A MONSTER
- Make sure that you have a slot available in the Pet Menu.
- Add your taming item in your quick slot for convenience.
Open your pet menu and unaccompany your current pet. Remember, "un-accompany" not "remove"!(Honestly, I'm not quite sure if this is necessary but I do it anyways. I never had any success in taming a monster with one of my pets hanging around.)I have confirmed that there is no need to unaccompany your current pet. You can still be successful even when it's active.- The most important part — SAVE! This is the single-most effective way in taming successfully. If you fail, reload the game! And if you're really that cheap like me, you can use 1 taming item without limit. /gg
- After you've saved your game, you can now approach the monster that you want to tame and activate the taming item by pressing the appropriate quick slot. A blue circle will appear in front of Clide. It will turn red if the monster steps on it.
- Ensure that the monster steps on the "taming circle". Ranged monsters are easier to tame since they do not need to move closer to your character in a fight. The distance of the taming circle is fixed so taming a melee monster can be a pain. HINT: Use obstacles to control the distance between you and the monster you want to tame. Boxes, trees, stones and cliffs will be your best friends here.
- Once the monster is in the taming circle, press the attack button. Wait for about one or two seconds to see if you succeed or not. If you fail, you can always reload the game.
Tips for Hardcore Gamers
Every pet you tame is unique — even when it's of the same monster type! To explain this more clearly, please compare the two Poring pets below.
Poring (No. 1)
HP Recovery
Increase (+6)
STR 6
VIT 9
Poring (No. 2)
HP Recovery
Increase (+6)
AGI 9
LUK 10
Take a look at each Poring's stat bonus. They're different from each other. Poring No.1 is more beneficial to a STR-VIT build while Poring No. 2 is good for a AGI-LUK build. If you have the patience to save-and-reload, you can repeat the process until you get the pet that you desire. /gg
(I tried doing this one whole day. If you're really that lucky, you can get it in a few minutes.)

Fellow Ragna Freaks!

These are the good ones that I've found so far.
