Festering Maggot: ability choices and unlocks

The table connects Festering Maggot to its recorded abilities, grouped by combat slot. Open an ability to inspect its effects and other pets with the same move.

Recorded moveset for Festering Maggot. Levels refer to the pet.
Ability	Slot	Unlock level
Chomp	Slot 1	1
Consume	Slot 1	10
Acidic Goo	Slot 2	2
Sticky Goo	Slot 2	15
Leap	Slot 3	4
Burrow	Slot 3	20

Slot 1 pairs Chomp (level 1) with Consume (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
Slot 2 pairs Acidic Goo (level 2) with Sticky Goo (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
Slot 3 pairs Leap (level 4) with Burrow (level 20). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.

Before leveling this pet for a team, check which of these alternatives your plan needs. Compare its in-game health, power and speed with the requirements of the encounter. A matching ability name alone does not establish that two pets are interchangeable.

Where to Find It: Eastern Plaguelands
