The following is a cut and paste of Keldarin's original post in the 'In Testing - DEV' forum.

Pet Growth Changes

- Pet growth now based on experience earned instead of time.
- Babies now have the same level and stats of a full grown creature.
- Babies still grow in size as they mature and will be able to be trained with new Pet Abilities that take their stats and capabilities beyond what they were born with.

The pet growth system has been rewritten to give a more engaging play experience that lets you start working with your new pets from the moment they are tamed.  Babies have the same level and stats as their parents and will be able to fight along side their master at full capacity from the moment they are tamed.  As a pet fights with it's master it will earn experience which contributes to it growth (in physical size) as well as gaining the capacity to learn new abilities which can make the pet more powerful in specific ways then a wild creature of the same species would be.

Pet Training Changes

- A new command training UI was implemented which should make training commands easier and faster than previously
- Verbal training of commands works the same as previously after selecting a command to train from the new training UI.

The new command training UI will show every command you pet is able to learn as well as the voice command known for each.  Selecting a command to train and pressing the "Train" button (or double-clicking a command directly) will start the voice training.  Voice training works the same as previously.  When your pet is ready to learn a new voice command a "?" will appear over it's head and you just need to speak the command you wish to train it.  If this is it's first time learning a specific command it will need to pass a training check to see if it can learn that voice command.  Once your pet knows a specific command changing it will always succeed.

New Pet Abilities

- Wild tamed pets now have a chance to start with an innate Pet Ability.
- Creature Handler can learn these abilities from their pets and train them to other pets.
- Pets gain Pet Ability "Slots" and Ability Training Points as they mature to learn new Pet Abilities.
- Pet Abilities can be taught to pets to allow for combat specialization as desired or general increases in combat effectiveness.

As some of you have already noticed, wild tamed pets can now start with innate Pet Abilities.  These abilities will automatically increase the effectiveness of your pet, but more importantly Creature Handlers can learn those abilities from the pet by fighting with the pet long enough.  Once you have learned an ability from a pet you be able to train it to your other pets.

As a pet matures they will gain Ability "Slots" and Training Points to learn new Pet Abilities.  You can see the progress to the next maturity level on the Pet Control Device under the heading "Training XP".  This will show you the current amount of XP earned and the total amount of XP required to reach the next maturity level.  Experience is earned by fighting opponents.  At each maturity level your pet will grow in size as well gain Training Points and possibly Ability Slots.  Ability Slots will not be earned at each maturity level but likelihood of earning one will increase as a pet reaches full maturity.  Pets will continue to Ability Slots until they have earned the maximum possible for their level and they will continue to earn Training Points until they have been fully trained.

To train a pet with a new Pet Ability, target your pet after you have called it and use the Train Pet command (/trainPet).  If the Creature Handler knows abilities that can be trained to the pet and the pet has available slots then the Ability Training UI will open.  From there an ability can be selected and the "Train" button pushed to teach the pet the new ability.  Using the Train Pet command with nothing targeted will show a list of all Pet Abilities known by the Creature Handler.

Many of the Pet Abilities permanently modify your pet's statistics and capability though several of them are triggered abilities which must be given a voice command the same as any other pet command.

FAQ
 

1. Q. How do I find out what Abilities I have learned?
   • A. Use the /train command while not targeting a pet. This will bring up the Known Pet Abilities window.
2. Q. Can I learn Abilities off any pet?
   • A.  No. You must tame new pets and find ones that have inherent Abilities.
3. Q.  What is a Maturity Level?
   • A.   This is the term used to describe the number of times that a pet has a Training XP roll over. See Section 3 for more information.
4. What do L1, L2, and L3 mean?
   • A.   These are levels of the Ability.
5. Q.  What are Training Points?
   • A.  Training Points are used to train Abilities. The number of Training Points used depends on Ability being trained.
6. Q.  What are Trainable Ability Points?
   • A.  Trainable Ability Points are used to train Abilites. 1 Trainable Ability Point is used per Ability.
7. Q. Why am I only gaining 1 CH XP? 
   • A.  Most likely, you are fighting creatures that appear Grey con to you. Pets gain CH XP for you depending on the standard con scale.
8. Q. What is Training XP?
   • A. Training XP is the XP that your pet gains while it is used. Don't confuse this XP with CH XP.
9. Q. What is the best way to gain Training XP for my pet?
   • A.  The quick answer is to not group with your pet and have it kill MOBs that are equal to or above the pets CL. See Section 3 for more information.
10. Q. Why aren't I gaining Training XP? 
    • A.  Make sure that you check your pets entry in the datapad. Training XP does not show up as a system message.
11. Q.  I'm still not gaining any Training XP, after checking the datapad. What's up with that?
    • A.  Occasionally, the Training XP meter will not update correctly, or becomes stuck. You will need to store and recall the pet in order to fix this issue.
12. Q. How do I know if a pet has an inherent Ability?
    • A. Open your datapad and target the pet. If it has an Ability, it will be listed right below the pet Stats and right above the trained commands.
13. Q. How long does it take to learn an Ability from a pet?
    • A.  his is a semi random process that typically takes 3 - 6 Maturity Levels. See Section 2 for more information.
14. Q. Can BE pets have Abilities?
    • A.  Yes. However BE pets do not have inherent Abilites, so you must train the Ability to the BE pet
15. Q.  Can I give my pet to someone else, so that they can train an Ability?
    • A.  Yes. However I suggest that you bring the pet to full maturity first. (Typically 10 Maturity Levels)
16. Q.  Can I learn an Ability from someone else's pet?
    • A.  As long as the pet has not been used in combat, you can learn Abilities from it.
17. Q. Can a pet unlearn an Ability? 
    • A.  No.
18. Q. Do I need to keep a pet, if I have learned an Ability from it?
    • A.  No. Once you learn an Ability from a pet, it is yours to keep.
19. Q. I'm not a CH. Can pets gain Training XP when I use them in combat? 
    • A.  No. Pets only gain Training XP for Creature Handlers.
20. Q.  My pet is tiny. Will it ever grow?
    • A.  Yes. Pets become larger as they gain Maturity Levels. Typically, a pet will become fully grown, physically, after 3 - 8 Maturity levels.
21. Q.  Will the CL of my pet increase as it gains Maturity Levels?
    • A. No. The CL of a tamed pet no longer changes, once tamed, with the exception of some invalid pre-CU BE'd pets.
22. Q.  How do I train my pet as a mount?
    • A.  First, you must make sure that the pet is large enough to support a saddle, by increasing the Maturity Levels of the pet. Once the pet is the appropriate size, the 'Train Pet As Mount' option will appear in the Teach Pet Command window. It is located as the last normal command, right above the Ability Command entries.

The Know Pet Abilities Window
 

Publish 21 introduced a the /train command to the Creature Handler Profession. This command handles all of the new pet Abilities features. You can also find a Command Icon for this skill in the Command Browser (CTRL-A).

Using the /train command, while not targeting anything, will give you a complete list of all of the Abilities that you have learned from a pet. This listing includes information that is listed below. Here is a screen shot of what the Known Pet Abilities window looks like. This is the same window that you will use in order to train your pet new Abilities.

Ability List
 

The following is a list of all current Abilities. Each Ability entry is listed as it is listed in the Known Pet Abilities window. Additional information will be added as it is gathered.

Only newly tamed wild pets will list whether or not they have an Ability as soon as they are tamed, on the Pet Control Device. Existing pets will not have any Abilities for you to learn. The only way to gain a new ability is to tame a pet. Not all tamed pets will have an ability. To see if your newly tamed pet has an inherent Ability, check the Pet Control Device, in the datapad. If the pet has an inherent Ability, it will be listed under the normal pet stats. By Inherent Ability, I am referring to an Ability that it knows as soon as it is tamed.

Creature vs Ability
 

Certain creatures appear to be more likely to have certain Abilities, when tamed. The following is a list of possible creatures that you should try taming, if you wish to find a certain Ability. It is not guaranteed that a tamed pet will have the Ability listed, since there appears to be some amount of randomness involved in the process.

The following list is provided by Anarrion. It shows the relationship of Ability grouping that has been found.

The following thread has a much more in-depth listing of Abilities found on different creatures.

Learning an Ability
 

In order to learn an Ability from a tamed pet, you must use the pet in combat. The learning process is semi-random, but typically will take an average of 3 Maturity Levels. The following are a few things that influence this process. -

• How many Maturity Levels your pet has gained.
• The CL of the pet
• The Level of the Ability.
• The number of kills that the pet has.
• Random Luck, may or may not be influenced by the FS Luck skill
• Air speed and velocity of the wind storms on Tatooine.

As you can see, its not an exact science yet. Pets typically pass on their Ability between 0 and 4 Maturity Levels. The learning process will not usually occur when the pet gains a Maturity Level. This event can occur after any MOB is taken down.

WARNING - You can not learn an ability from a pet that has already been used in combat, by another toon. If the pet has any amount of XP earned, while in the care of another CH, you will not be able to learn the ability that it possesses. This includes abilities that have been trained by another CH. Pets that have been tamed by someone else, and then traded to a new master, can have their Ability learned, just as long as the pet does not have any gained XP.

Also keep in mind that pets do not naturally gain Abilities through use. Abilities will only appear on a pet randomly when tamed, or after you have trained the pet.

A system message will appear, each time you learn an ability from a pet. The name of the Ability will appear in yellow lettering on screen.

'Leveling' a Pet
 

Each pet must gain a certain amount of pet XP, depending on its CL, in order to gain a Maturity Level. Do not confuse the Maturity of the pet with its normal CL. The CL of the pet will never change. If you tame the pet as a CL20, it will always be a CL20.

The Maturity Levels are not listed as any form of level, on the pet control device. It is only a term being used to describe what happens as the pet is used more in combat and gains its own Training XP. The term is used to assist others to understand how many times the pet must hit its Training XP cap, and roll back over to 0 XP.

Between approximately 3 and 10 maturity levels, the pet will grow to full size. This has no effect on the stats of the pet, or the number of Training Points or Trainable Ability Slots. This is simply the 'physical' size of the pet skin.

The following is a list of pet CL and how much XP is needed to 'level up' the pets maturity.

CL 24    =    58300                  CL  48    =  202300                                                 

After each battle with a mob, your pet will gain Y points of Training XP. This amount appears to be based on your Level, the pets CL, and the CL of the mob that you are fighting. Using your pet to take down a lair appears to give a significant amount of XP. Your pets XP is completely separate from your own CH XP and does not appear to have any effect on your rate of gaining XP.

Training XP is only listed in the datapad, on the pet control unit. It does not show up as a system message.

Possible Training XP Feature and/or Bug

There appears to be a way for pets to gain Training XP at a fairly steady pace, that is based upon the CL vs CL XP model for toons. Here is how it works -

• Chose a pet that you want to bring the maturity levels up on.
• Find a type mob that is of appropriate CL as the pet. If the pet is CL4 then find mobs that are in the CL1 - CL5 range.
• DO NOT group with the pet.
• Have the pet attack the mobs, while healing / helping it in combat.
• Wash and repeat

This method will give your pet full Training XP, with minimal risk to the pet, or you, if the pet is 15+ Levels lower then you are. As long as you do not group up with the pet, it will gain Training XP fairly quickly, compared to using the pet in your normal combat group. If you group up with the pet, and attempt to kill mobs that are of a lower CL then your own, then the pet will only gain 1 Training XP. I believe this to be a feature addition, since it would allow a CH the ability to train 3 non-CH creatures in a relatively short amount of time so that they can become fully grown to use as a mount and given Abilities.

And just to clarify, using the pets to kill mobs of a level appropriate to their own, will give you XP based upon your Level vs the mobs level. This means that if you have your pack of kaadu female (babies) hunting CL14s and you are a Level 80, you will only gain 1 CH XP, while your kaadu will gain full Training XP.

Training Points
 

The following is Temporary Training point chart. More information still needs to be gathered, to insure its accuracy.

This list tells you the number of Training points that your pet will gain with each maturity level.

There currently appears to be no limit on the number of Training Points that your pet can gain, as long as you keep increasing the maturity level of the pet and do not train it with the maximum number of Abilities that it can have, based on its level.

Trainable Ability Slots
 

Trainable Ability Slots are gained periodically through the course of using your pet, until the pet reaches its maximum, based upon the CL range of the creature.

The following is a Temporary Trainable Ability Slot chart. More information still needs to be gathered, to insure its accuracy. This chart does not include any Ability Slots that the pet was tamed with, since tamed Abilites appear to be 'free'. Each CL of creature appears to have a range of Trainable Ability Slots that is random, but based upon a set range.

A system message will appear each time your pet gains either Training Points, or a Trainable Ability Slot
