I was looking for BST pets for to blow up for solo XP as BLM49 last night, and found that some of the details currently given on somepage.com are incorrect. Specifically:

Gigas's Tigers (Xarcabard) are listed as level 48-50 but conned EP to my BLM49 (the Frost Gigas BSTs themselves only conned DC). I acquired 27XP from each kill, which places those Tigers at level 38.

Goblin's Leeches (Labyrinth of Onzozo) and Goblin's Rabbits (Cape Terrigan) are also listed as level 48-50. Both are pets to Goblin Shepherds, which con EM at 66-69; I've recently been fighting these goblins as RDM through 65-68 and the pets have conned EP. That means the pets are more like 58-60 - you can see why I didn't check this out in detail as BLM49!

Please fix before someone gets her character killed looking for those goblin pets.

I'd noticed the same with Gigas's Tiger in Xarcabard, and the Goblin's Leeches in Onzozo being much different than listed.
Goblin Rabbit's in Terrigan are correct as 48-50 though. Spent a few levels there killing them.

Thanks for the feedback, folks. It's very hard to get precise levels on these type of pets, without having info on the experience point gained per kill. (This is especially true since a level 68 character can easily get experience from a mob that's more than 15 levels lower.)

After looking these up, a few fixes were made:
-- The Gigas's Tiger in Xarcabard had their level adjusted, and clarified for the multiple mobs that use it as a pet.
-- The Goblin's Leeches in Labyrinth of Onzozo had their level adjusted, and clarified as well. This is mainly a guess, to put those pets on par with the comparable ones in Gustav Tunnel: I couldn't find any solid data for what their exact level is.

If anyone gets precise information on how much experience is gained from any mobs, pets or otherwise, that doesn't line up with what we have, please post it and we'll update the database accordingly.

The Ul'aern pets (Wynav and Xzomit) seem to be about level 64-66, which fits with the usual pattern of pets being ~5 levels below their masters. In a party of 6 I got 13-15xp for them, and in a party of 3 18-20xp.

I've only killed one Om'aern pet, which gave 40xp in a party of 3, which puts it somewhere between L73 and L74; the calculation seems a bit off.

The Aern's Xzomit do not have the usual low HP of BST pets; they have about 4k HP, almost as much as their masters. The Wynavs do have lower HP, about 1100.

I may be mistaken, but isn't there some kind of experients points multiplier for mobs in the Lumoria region? Could've sworn I read about that somewhere.
