My favorite type of pets are ones you can earn ingame through questing – these can not be bought, only earned! See the SWTOR Secret Pets guide.
If you’ve missed out on these you will never be able to get them! Special Pets Other types of pets can only be gained through special promotions – like having pre-ordered expansions or buying retired Cartel Coin cards from various vendors. These pets can run anywhere from 5,000 to 5 Million credits depending on their scarcity. You can get some very cheap pets on the GTN by choosing the category “Pets” then sorting them by “Unit Price”! Pets that are lit up are ones you don’t have yet on your character, ones that are greyed out are ones you already have. There are over a hundred pets available from Cartel Packs – if you are interested in collecting these ones, I suggest buying them from the GTN. Pets can also be placed in your stronghold as decorations once you have unlocked them.
You can have two pets out at a time – one flying pet, and one ground pet.
Your pets are located in your abilities panel – press “P” on you keyboard or click the star icon on the menu to open it up.
