Brand new rewards for your skilling efforts arrive in RuneScape this week in the form of nineteen new pets that can be earned by training a wide variety of skills.

Read on for more info on how to collect them, plus a link to the latest game patches and information on our upcoming live streams.

Requirements

Free-to-play players can unlock all pets except those that require training members' only skills. RuneScape members, of course, can unlock all of them.

Unlock each pet as a random drop when training its specific skill in the ways listed below. The higher your level in a skill the higher your chances of getting its pet.

Your brand-new buddies can be used as familiar overrides, complete with their own unique animations for spawning, de-spawning, attacking, defending and special attacks.

Once you have unlocked five of these skilling pets you will also unlock the fabulous new title - "Jack of Trades". Unlocking all these skilling pets will then get you the golden title - "Jack of All Trades"

Pets and How to Unlock Them

Below is a basic list of the training methods that unlock the skill pets. For further details and considerations, you could check out Mod Shauny's reply to this post's forum thread.
Agility - "Dojo Mojo"

  • Completing any of the following agility courses:
  • Burthorpe course
  • Gnome stronghold
  • Advanced gnome stronghold
  • Agility pyramid
  • Penguin course
  • Barbarian outpost
  • Advanced barbarian outpost
  • Ape Atoll course
  • Wilderness course
  • Werewolf course

  • Going to Runespan and siphoning creatures, nodes and/or the Runesphere
Slayer - "Crabbe"

  • Killing an enemy that counts towards your current Slayer task
  • Reaper assignments
Smithing - "Smithy"

  • Smelting bars
  • Smithing weapons/armour
  • Making the following items in the Artisan Workshop: burial armour, cannon repair, ceremonial swords, tracks
Thieving - "Ralph"

  • Note - doors are excluded from this
Woodcutting - "Woody"

@RRman. Yes, the Arc is possible for pets, however, it is a very low chance due to the xp rates there. Hope this helps!
