Rune Slayer Best Pet Tier List

Author : Sebastian Mar 19,2025

One of *Rune Slayer*'s coolest features is the ability to tame enemies, turning them into battle pets and even mounts for speedy travel. But with a variety of pets, choosing the best can be tricky. That's why we've created this *Rune Slayer* Best Pet Tier List.

While all classes can tame pets, Beast Tamer Archers have access to the most powerful options. For the strongest companions, Archer Beast Tamer is the way to go (currently a top subclass). Therefore, we'll provide two tier lists: one for Beast Tamers and one for all other classes.
