Another reference adding to Tabu’s: > [@Upcoming Change to Factions, Pets & Kingdom Levelling](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/upcoming-change-to-factions-pets-kingdom-levelling/56470/9): > > Hey Goodly, this change means that players won’t need to level cosmetic pets, as more pets will be included under a kingdom. If a player can’t mythic a cosmetic pet, they will be able to level a different pet to increase their kingdom level. More pets will be available per kingdom moving forward, as faction pets will be counted towards their associated kingdom for levelling purposes. > > It’s a bit tricky to word, but I hope I have clarified this for you. 🙂 Going to play devil’s advocate for a minute here. I can’t find a solid promise anywhere and I don’t think it was ever made. Comments were made to indicate that cosmetic pets would not be required (like the ones above), but there was no promise that would never change, I think we just interpreted it as such. And those comments should be taken in the context of the time they were made, literally years ago when the game was in a different state, when the most you needed to max out kingdom power was 2 pets at level 20, which you could in fact do with one regular pet and one faction pet. Do I think requiring cosmetic pets for kingdom power is fine? No. But I don’t think the developers should be prevented from further developing the game in the direction they feel is best for it because of a comment made years ago. Anyway, devs gonna dev, what can ya do about it? 😅 --- _[View the full topic](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/new-pet-war-kitty/71403)._
