Re Beastkeeper: Yeah, I loved how it looks, but it wasn't very active, and just wasn't enough to keep my interest, but I wish it had. One of the few sites with HORSES that didn't focus around competition, where the horses looked 'realistic' (it had others as well)
Re Sylestia: Technically you don't need max stat or super stat. I made it all the way to the lost grove using my starter pet, a pet I bought (just random pet) and a pet I was gifted, which I think is not max stat (pretty sure). I have made it to the caverns and fought some of those creatures, but yeah, it is a LOT of repeated grinding to move anywhere in that partcular area.
It is EASIER, yeah, but honestly, not by a whole lot, which is why I do like sylestia. Krinadon, the owner/coder, does seem to make sure that the bosses are beatable by regular pets, though you DO need specific armor.
However, you don't need to win in the arena to get the best equipment, as that is actually found in the LG, but for level 60+. I have fought in the arena twice, and I think both times my pet got its tail handed to it.
However, some of the bosses require specific strategies and you do need the best equipment you can get, which by the time you are in the LG is from the LG, but you need to be able to upgrade it (which I can't yet) which is expensive, requires lots of grinding, and specific stuff.
But, anyway, if you want help, let Jemadar over there know, or post in region chat, there are some people in there who have battle strategies for various bosses, and are usually willing to help out.
