Creatures grow every 12 hours until finished. Some instances have been seen with creatures taking a bit more or a bit less time...

12 real time, dont have to be on for it to happen.. it's also possible for them to miss a few or even have a growing spurt with higher %. you can figure 5 days for the most part it seems.

Ok so whats the deal with this? do you have a limited time for your pet to grow or does it grow over time? the reason I ask is because I have been working on my baby mountain dewback and when I compare it to the adult size of the mountain dewbacks it still falls a lil short in size. It has its max damage now of 190 or somehting like that so it doesnt seem to have anywhere to grow. Did i do something wrong or is it still growing?

I am pretty sure that my pet has reached the 5 day mark and he is still smaller than the adult mountain dewbacks. I dont get it from what the manual says, "With proper care and feeding your creature will grow to full size over time. In fact, given enough effort, your creature can grow even larger than a normal member of its species."


I want to know why this is not the case for me? Can someone who has a pet that is abnormally large for its species please tell me what they did to get it that way?

It's not the size, it's how you use it

If you notice alot of the animals are different sizes. I'ts just random to an extent to what size yours will be when fully grown. Personally, I would rather have the smaller one. No matter what the end stats will be the same.

Thanks in advance

Actually at the moment, growing is quite bugged. I tamed a Gurreck the other night, and it has grown about five times so far. Something is really making them grow faster. However, the way that it is supposed to work is, the baby starts out with a tenth of all stats as its parent. Everyday the pet gains another tenth or so of all stats (ie: HAM and Damage). So, its all pretty much the same time to grow to parents for all pets.

is REALLY stupid that u have to be on every 12 hours for your pet to grow at the right speed. I had my cu pa for 5 days, and its only half way there because i only logged on once every day, other people say they got to the top in 3.5 days, **edit**. I really see no reason to have to be on for the pet to grow.


Devs you really need to change this. Having to be on every 12 hours is a chore. I got stuff to do.

I am 99% sure that pets growth highly dependant on number of pets you have. When I was novice CH I had pets that grew every 12 hours, now that I am close to master and have 10 pets they grew only to 6/10 in last9 days... Thats 5 growth spurs in 9 days, very wired... Specially wired since all my new pets are from ALL over the world like 3 different planets and5 ifferent types and they all grow at same wired rate of 5 spurs in 9 days...
