Since they're on sale today, I thought maybe I'd get a pet for looting. But I really don't know much about pets, and the "all about pets" guide seems to assume a lot of prior knowledge (or maybe I'm just too dense to understand it).
Anyway, my first questions are:
1) Is there any functional difference between different pets, in terms of looting? A pet that is described as "less obedient" will loot less reliably, or something?
2) What does pet level and/or closeness do? Does a pet with higher closeness range farther in search of loot? Does a higher level pet get hungry less often?
3) Do pets in themselves (not being equipped with meso magnet or potion pouch or whatever) have any purpose other than amusement/decoration? Do you get exp for training them, for example?
4) I understand that your pet will only pick up drops from your own kills (not party members or strangers), unless equipped with Magic Scales. Correct?
5) Is it true the pet will only pick up drops I've walked over? So for instance if I am standing on the MP3 Hummer and spamming Arrow Rain or Heal or w/e, I will still need to jump down every once in a while and take a quick dash through the sea of drops, for my pet to pick them up?
Thanks!
