Mini-pets or Miniatures are downsized versions of NPC models. These pets can follow you during your adventures but they do not fight or provide any additional storage. Currently, the Mini-pets are companions that look cute and provide entertainment. Miniatures have your character’s guild tag appended to their name while active.
Mini-pets can be obtained in several ways:
- Purchase as Minis Pack from the Gem Store for 300 Gems
- Purchase in auction house
- Create in the Mystic Forge
- Pre-purchase reward
- Hall of Monuments rewards
A Minis Pack contains 3 randomly selected miniatures: 2 common and 1 uncommon pet.
Mini-pets have their own space in the collectibles tab of the bank. You can storage 55 mini-pets in the bank, but there are more than 55 pets. If you want to take one with you then it will take up a spot in your inventory.
If you have duplicated Mini-pets you can combine them (you need 4 Mini-pets of the same Rarity) in the Mystic Forge and get a new one. Someone wrote that if you combine 4 blue pets you will get the green one, but I got the blue one. The Mystic Forge is located in the Lion’s Arch – Mystic Plaza.
There are four rarity types of Mini-pets:
- Fine (common)
- Masterwork (uncommon)
- Rare
- Exotic

Not to nitpic you’ve done an awesome job but GW’s rarity order is different to WoW. Starting with rarest to common the order should be , Green , Gold(yellow),Blue.
So Masterwork > Rare > Fine
Keep up the goodjob Sir 🙂
:O after checking the wiki I stand corrected ( didn’t realise they had changed rarity colors from GW1 ) carry on good sir 😀
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Rarity#Quality
At the beginning I was little confused with the colors too (in most of the games a blue item is better than a green one).
I actually got a gold bat that is not listed 🙂
It’s listed now. I got it during the stress test
Hi, I guess you may thanks me for the screenshot 50/55 minis storage 😉
Hi there,
firstly, awesome website.
no. i mean it.
AWESOME!
i have told everyone on gw2 that i know to use it.
anyway to the question about minis…
is it possible to get the tabby cat in gw2 without gw1 gameplay??
I know. i know. i should have played gw1 😀
unfortunately i didn’t know until gw2 🙁
otherwise i would’ve been all over it like tomato sauce used by an australian at a bbq.
tho this may have led to disasterous failure for my uni degree.
the game.
not the sauce.
lol.
So back to the point, I really REALLY want one of those cute orange kitties! Is there anyway that you know of that i can make this happen??
Thanks,
-AE
You can still get items for GW1 completion by getting GW1 and earning the Hall of Monuments points. The achievements still update in GW2.
from helloween event are 4 new minipets (skeleton, ghost,spider and when you kombine this 3 with sugar in mystic forge you get gloving skeleton with chainsword) this minipets does not count toward 55 minipets achievement. this minipets are only from gem purchase..
also if you buy witch or mad king outfit from gem shop, this costume have own minipets (more like ranger pets) its cat from witch and candy golem from MK, this work as town clothing only :((
