| Hiss | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Survival | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Burrow | Slot 3 | 4 |

- Slot 1 pairs Scratch (level 1) with Needle Claw (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Hiss (level 2) with Survival (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Burrow (level 4) with Deliberate Retreat (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.
