Hoard Pets
Rampart Ram, Vault Pangolin, Warlord Hyena — three pets only Hoard chests can pay, each built for one Hoard job.
Three pets exist for THE HOARD and come from nowhere else: the top three chest tiers each have a small chance to pay one. The pet crates never roll them. In every other way they are ordinary pets — they arrive at level 1, can roll shiny, can be traded, and fused to three stars (hoard pets never evolve), and they have their own shelf in the Pet Dex.
Their abilities only work while the pet is standing in the hoard crew — equipping one on the board does nothing. Each has one job and three abilities; ability N needs N fusion stars.
Where they drop
| Pet | Rarity | Job | Drops from | Chance per chest | Average chests of that tier | Average chests overall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 Rampart Ram | EPIC | The gate |  LEGENDARY CHEST | 2% (1 in 50) | 50 | 500 |
 Vault Pangolin | LEGENDARY | The chests |  MYTHIC CHEST | 2% (1 in 50) | 50 | 1,000 |
 Warlord Hyena | MYTHIC | The pack |  CHAMPION CHEST | 2% (1 in 50) | 50 | 5,000 |
“Average chests overall” uses the chest cycle: a CHAMPION CHEST is only 1 chest in 100. Tier Up upgrades shorten the wait for all three.

Tips
- Like every crew pet, a hoard pet also adds its own power, accuracy and Chest Speed just by standing there — its abilities come on top.
- Stars matter twice: each fusion star unlocks the next ability and adds to the pet's own hoard power.
- A hoard pet keeps working the Hoard while it is also on the board, on an expedition or in the factory.
