Wild pets are captured, not looted. Find one in any of the zones listed below, start a pet battle, bring it below 35% health, then use a trap before finishing the battle.
Swamplighter Firefly: ability choices and unlocks
The table connects Swamplighter Firefly 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Barbed Stinger | Slot 1 | 1 |
| Alpha Strike | Slot 1 | 10 |
| Lift-Off | Slot 2 | 2 |
| Puncture Wound | Slot 2 | 15 |
| Flyby | Slot 3 | 4 |
| Nimbus | Slot 3 | 20 |
- Slot 1 pairs Barbed Stinger (level 1) with Alpha Strike (level 10). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 2 pairs Lift-Off (level 2) with Puncture Wound (level 15). These share a slot; a loadout cannot use both at once.
- Slot 3 pairs Flyby (level 4) with Nimbus (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: Highmountain
Legion AssaultThe game data places this pet in Highmountain but records no spawn coordinates. Highmountain is one of 2 zones listed for it. The gold pins are the zone's own landmarks from the game data, not this pet's spawn points.
