Use Pure Strategy to farm pets

Royal Gardens Survival or Pure Strategy after clearing the map’s Campaign mission.

Before you go

Complete Royal Gardens Campaign to unlock its extended modes.
Check the current Royal Gardens pet reward wave in the map’s reward listing.
Start early enough to reach that reward wave; pet rewards begin at qualifying waves from wave 15, and the run must begin at least two waves before its target.

Open Royal Gardens and select Survival or Pure Strategy.
Confirm the Fairy reward milestone shown for this map and mode.
Choose a difficulty your defense build can sustain through the target wave.
Build coverage during the setup phase; in Pure Strategy, plan for defenses to handle all combat.
Advance through waves while repairing weak lanes between rounds.
Reach and complete the listed Fairy reward wave, then open the reward chest.
Inspect the pet’s stats, keep or replace it as appropriate, and repeat the run for another roll if wanted.

Do not assume another map’s pet wave applies to Royal Gardens; reward milestones are map-specific.
If using any skip-wave option, leave enough waves before the target to satisfy the run-start requirement.

Repeatable for additional pet rolls, but each run requires reaching its qualifying reward milestone; the Fairy is not a guaranteed stat roll.

Starting too close to the reward wave: begin at least two waves beforehand.
Using a combat-heavy setup in Pure Strategy: defenses must do the fighting.
Leaving before opening the milestone reward chest: complete the target wave and collect its reward.

Stop once the Fairy’s stats suit your intended use, or switch to another map only after checking that map’s own pet reward.

Survival and pets

Royal Gardens has a listed Fairy pet reward, making it a specific target for a pet run rather than a generic map farm.
