Pet Spotlight: Nexus Whelpling

Amazingly effective against flyers, the Nexus Whelpling is one of the most impressive pets I’ve seen yet.  With the devastating combo of Arcane Storm / Mana Surge, this guy is capable of downing any flyer in 3 rounds; then he goes into the next pet with the Dragon bonus active and 1 more round of Mana Surge to go.  I use him against almost all tamers that have a flying pet.

Nexus Whelplings hang out all over Coldarra, and while they’re not super-rare like Minfernal, their spawns are fairly limited.  The breed 4 pictured here has a very high attack power of 341 at level 25.  You could try to farm for a rare breed 4, but given how few Dragonkin are actually worth stoning, it would probably just be better to use a battle-stone on any breed 4 you get.
