Nightmare Whelpling: ability choices and unlocks
The table connects Nightmare Whelpling to its recorded abilities, grouped by combat slot. Open an ability to inspect its effects and other pets with the same move.
| Ability | Slot | Unlock level |
|---|---|---|
| Shadowflame | Slot 1 | 1 |
| Tail Sweep | Slot 1 | 10 |
| Call Darkness | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Flame Jet | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Nightmare | Slot 3 | 4 |
| Healing Flame | Slot 3 | 20 |
- Slot 1 pairs Shadowflame (level 1) with Tail Sweep (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Call Darkness (level 2) with Flame Jet (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Nightmare (level 4) with Healing Flame (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.
