The interface

The Petwars interface is very easy to understand. To the top of the screen, it displays your level, total experience, the experience bar, current and max energy, current and max stamina and current and max health. As well as your money and the timer until the stat regenerates.

Underneath those there are 9 buttons.

Home- Displays notifications, history, your player and news from the Petwars application page.

Train- Here you can spend your energy points on training missions that will give you exp, gold and sometimes spells (more later.)

As you achieve higher levels, you will unlock new training missions and new training tiers. New training missions unlock every 2 levels whilst new tiers will unlock every 8th level. The last training mission unlocks at level 135!

Battle- This will show as list of opponents at a similar level to you that you are able
to battle. When choosing an opponent to battle, you must look at there stats:
1CLAN SIZE1

10ATTACK10
10DEFENSE10
$1,000MONEY$1,000


To the left are their stats and to the right are yours. If their (or your) stats and in red and are bold this means that that is a higher stat. If you are going to battle somebody, try to battle somebody with lower stats than yours. Especially clan size!
Example:

1
CLAN SIZE
100



10
ATTACK
100
10
DEFENSE
100
$1,000
MONEY
$10,000

Store- The store is where you can buy items and weapons. When starting the game I advise you to buy a name tag with your $1,000, do the second training mission and when you have enough, buy the collar and do the third mission. Items and weapons will unlock every new tier (8th level.) Buying items in chunks Eg. 5 at once will be a lot cheaper than buying 1 five times. Every time you buy an item the cost will go up buy 5% of its original price. So if you bought a 5 name tag at once it would only cost you $1,000 but if you buy 1 for five times the cost will be $1,100. Ok, $100 isn't much at all but when buying higher level items like the lightsaber, this method can prove useful.

Real estate- A very good feature of the game! The real estate allows you to invest in properties that will generate income in the long term. But beware, if you do not collect your rent for 3 days or 72 hours it will start to be 'stolen by your tenants'

Properties will unlock as you level up. The higher the level, the more it will cost but you will get more income per 40/60/80 minutes.

After allowing Petwars you'll be asked to choose one of 3 characters.

Lets call the shark, 1, the hamster (?), 2 and the squid, 3.

Each character has its own weaknesses and strengths and it is best to choose which you'll be best with; If you are planning to increase your energy every level and not health/ stamina you would obviously pick 2. If you were to increase your health and stamina at most level up's you should pick 3 as the shark (1) has high health BUT low stamina so there would be an uneven regeneration rate for your health and stamina.


The shark generates:

Health - every 2 minutes
Stamina - every 4 minutes
Energy - every 3 minutes
Gold - every 60 minutes


The hamster generates:


Health - every 2 minutes
Stamina - every 3 minutes
Energy - every 2 minutes
Gold - every 80 minutes

The squid generates:

Health - every 3 minutes
Stamina - every 2 minutes
Energy - every 3 minutes
Gold - every 60 minutes

If the pet has a high attack or defense, you will recieve an extra 10% bonus on your skill points and your items. (Eg, 1.1*(attack skill point + total weapon damage)
in stead of the normal *1.0 or *0.9 if you have low attack or defense.

There are 4 other types of pet you can choose in game from the grand master but that can come at a later date :)

Once you have chosen your pet enter a name and start playing!
