Best Pets in Dungeon Heroes (Video Guide)
Video Overview
The embedded YouTube guide demonstrates each top pet in real dungeon footage—watch DPS numbers on bosses versus mob waves before you spend merge keys. Video content ages faster than tier lists after balance patches, so pause on sections that match your current dungeon tier and verify stats against our tier-list/pets table afterward.
Creators often showcase max merge pets while you may be holding five level-1 copies—use the video for ability timing and role fit, not exact damage expectations day one.
Quick Rankings Recap
S-tier Okurio and Flint Beryl XII anchor boss killing—Okurio for fast burn phases, Flint for sustained Insane fights with added tank summons. A-tier Baboon King, Loto Elderagyn, and Anpu cover mob clear, enemy grouping, and healing overlap respectively. B-tier pets like Bulwark and Somnekk teach mechanics but should not receive merge keys.
- S — Okurio: Summons wolves, best single-target boss DPS
- S — Flint Beryl XII: Crystal armor, summons dwarf tanks, melts bosses
- A — Baboon King: High AoE mob clear, small hitbox
- A — Loto Elderagyn: Pulls mobs together for AoE combos
- A — Anpu: Healing and solid all-round damage
- B — Bulwark: Tanky bodyguard from Shattered Forest
- B — Somnekk: Slows enemies but large hitbox
Boss vs Mob Pet Switching
Serious farmers eventually maintain two lines: Okurio for boss rooms and Baboon King for trash packs. Swapping pets at hub before queue saves more time than forcing one pet through all content—Loto Elderagyn is the magic-player equivalent for AoE setup.
Investment Advice
Merge one S-tier line before collecting a zoo of B-tier trophies. Keys are precious—budget weekly using tools/key-planner. Farm Orion's Peak for Okurio duplicates only after Self Heal or your core sustain skill is online; starving skills to rush pet merge slows every dungeon in between.
When RNG refuses pet drops, run parallel dungeons where secondary pets still help—Bulwark tanks Shattered Forest while you hoard Okurio copies elsewhere.
