Zaishen Menagerie Grounds

The Zaishen Menagerie Grounds is an explorable area where the Zaishen Order takes care of the pets you have unlocked on your account. Pets can be brought in from the wild, or purchased here and trained for you by the Order.

There are various climates in this one area that create the appropriate habitats for the animals.

Getting there
Go to the Zaishen Menagerie and talk to Gate Guard Hirvela for access.

Pets and unlocking
The Zaishen Menagerie is account based, which means that any pet you unlock will be available to all characters on that account, both PvE and PvP. You cannot, however, bring other players into your own menagerie, it is only for yourself and your heroes.

To unlock a pet in the menagerie, show it to Emryd the Tamer. This will unlock a tier for that specific species of animal. The different tiers are unlocked depending on the pet's level and evolution, detailed below, and a higher tier will unlock all lower tiers as well. So, if you add a tier 5 animal, tier 1, 2, 3 and 4 will also be unlocked. There are 7 tiers, with a level 20 evolved (non-elder) pet being the highest tier.

Pets and tiers can also be unlocked through paying Zaishen Coins and gold, or Balthazar faction to Helena (Zaishen Keeper).

The animals
All animals roaming the grounds have a base level of 5, and as soon as tier 1 of a new species is unlocked the animal will appear in the grounds. Many pets will also be accompanied by baby versions, which are non-targettable and non-charmable. Wynn will spawn four of any higher tier you have unlocked on demand in her training pen, and this service is free.

Pets with the same skin but different names, such as Moa Birds and Striders, don't count as separate types. Pets with different skins but identical names, however, do count as different species. One example would be the red and blue Reef Lurkers.

The pets roaming the grounds are passive and, like normal pets, will become hostile (have their names turn red) when you try to charm them or attack them; however they will not attack you. The pets spawned by Wynn, on the other hand, will act like wild pets and attack as soon as you interact with them. The roaming pets still gain experience from player deaths and can be death leveled all the way to level 20. This will usually result in a Hearty pet, allowing you to unlock the highest tier for that species.

The menagerie
Each animal will only be present once tier 1 for that species is unlocked.
 * 1 Only after unlocking a higher tier for each animal and letting Wynn spawn them.
