War Pets in Call of Dragons can be quite a complex and confusing part of the game, espcially if you’re not too familiar with all the skills, synergies and what they can do. For that reason I have put together this overview that will help you understand what war pets should be a priority and which ones have rather niche uses.
Please also mind that this list will get updated and adjusted when new meta evolves in Call of Dragons, updates change something and so on, so please bookmark and don’t take the current snapshot of war pets as given for the next years.
You can open the ‘Show More’ button and there you will also find a link to each war pet that will show you the best way to build the pet, the skills I recommend and also what heroes to pair that pet with.
Below is ‘only’ a broad general overview that will give you a priority before you start finetuning your war pets. Also, this works closely together with the tier list of the best heroes in Call of Dragons that you can find here and the best legion lineup you should build here.
