I got it by spamming BITE 2. I have a 28 level bat from RFK (Blindhunter)> I have Bite 4 but I only have 3 training points available and it says I need 10 to acquire BITE 4 on my bat. How come? I thought once u learned a new pet skill the pet automatically acquires this skill? He is at the dependable level - I went out and risked some XP to the 99% level to get him these points but no luck. Still 3 points and he has not acquired this BITE 4 skill. His (pet bat) is 3.5 bubs into purple level too). Is i this bugged? I'm I doing something wrong. Joe I am a 29 twink.

Almost certainly the 5% XP + time factor is the trick.

Since you need both rep and exp to increase loyalty, and it's impossible to gain exp at 70, it's impossible to increase the loyalty of a level 70 pet. Spend a few hours coming to this conclusion just by researching all the sites on hunters. My guess?

After 2 hours of grinding those beasts, i finally got my pet from level 1 loyalty to level 3, with 2 more bubbles to level my pet to 70. Anyway i am trying out this pet for pvp purposes and needed the skins from the beasts as well. Hope my info helped a bit. Hi ,

You must meet both in order for loyalty to increase. For example if it's 10 minutes and 1000exp and you grind mobs really quick... it still won't level until you've waited at least 10 minutes. You could probably run some pretty good tests to confirm this. My guess is that each level has both a time requirement and an experience requirement.

I just tamed a new pvp cat and indeed it took about one bubble of XP to gain loyalty level 2. What's interesting is that this cat is at the same level as me -- so she didn't actually gain XP in the process, if that makes any sense. I decided to keep going, and grinded for another 9% (just about two more XP bubbles). Nothing happened so I went off to do some mining. A couple minutes later, I'm mid-swing on an iron ore, and I notice that the cat just gained another loyalty level. Interesting! Next I'm gonna try PvPing and see if she gains any loyalty there. Will keep you posted. Hi Mania, thanks for the excellent article. I just tamed a new pvp cat and indeed it took about one bubble of XP to gain loyalty level 2.
