Tree of Savior: NEO is a new anime-style open-world MMORPG developed by NEOCRAFT LTD. The fantasy-style game has a pet system where they are referred to as Catpals.
In this Tree of Savior: NEO guide, you’ll get to know what the Catpals are, where and how to use them properly on the battlefield. Additionally, if you are just starting with Tree of Savior: NEO, make sure to check out our beginners’ guide and redeem codes article to kickstart your journey.
How to get Catpals easily in Tree of Savior: NEO
Catpals are your magical companions in Tree of Savior: NEO. These creatures can significantly enhance your stats and abilities. They are useful support units because they offer both active skills and passive stat buffs. Catpals have different rarities, from most rarest red catpals to the most common blue catpals.

Catpals are mainly acquired by the Captal Gacha, where Captal Gacha Tickets or Rainbow Gems can be used to summon them. There is a pity system that rewards a high-rarity red Catpal every 240 pulls and a gold Catpal every 60 pulls.
Occasionally, Catpals also come as event rewards, login rewards, or limited-time shop bundles. Duplicate Catpals or shards can be utilized for upgrading or fusing into new ones, so a pull is always worth it in the long run.

The Catpal album acts as the personal photobook for the catpals. When you get a new catpal or evolve a catpal, you can activate them in the Album. Each activation provides proportional stat bonuses, Album EXP, and Ruby. Album EXP can be used to upgrade the Album for character stats bonuses.
How to Upgrade your Catpals in Tree of Savior: NEO
Catpals can be upgraded to further enhance their stats. The maximum level for the catpal is 10. With every 10-level upgrade, a Catpal can make a Breakthrough, raising its level cap and significantly increasing its stats. Duplicate catpals will be converted into corresponding shards, which can be used to evolve them.

This way, the evolution of the Catpals develops their skill effects. When a catpal reaches a 3-star or 6-star evolve level, it will gain an additional skill or a new appearance. Focus resources on your main lineup. Use the weaker Catpals as fodder for stat upgrades.
How to deploy your Catpals Lineup in Tree of Savior: NEO
Deploy Catpals
Each player can carry up to three Catpals on the battlefield. Each of the deployed catpals has their abilities and active skills that can be used to support your character. Only Purple or above Catpals have Catpal Skills and can be placed in combat positions.

Catpal Assist
When 3 Catpals are deployed in Combat Positions, the Assist feature will be triggered. Assist positions will be unlocked sequentially based on the progress in Archi Tower. The assist position quality cannot be higher than the main lineup’s quality. You can increase the Assist Level by consuming specific items.
Stat Bonuses
The stats of the main combat Catpals are 100% transferred to the player’s character. Red assist catpals will transfer 60% of their stats to the player. On the contrary, those of other qualities only transfer 30% of their stats.
Performing Chain Effects with the Catpals
Beyond individual strength, Catpals have powerful skills that can be manually cast during combats. Additionally, there are chain effects between some catpals. Look for Catpal sets that give active skill bonuses if activated together.

These unlock additional skill bonuses when certain catpals are linked. A chain icon will appear when the bonus is triggered. Pairing them can boost the effectiveness of the overall combat scenario and compensate for weak classes, such as the DPS class that lacks healing support.
Conclusion
Catpals enrich Tree of Savior: NEO with depth, strategy, and personalization. You must ensure to deploy a well-rounded lineup that aligns with your build and chain bonuses. Upgrade and fill your album with new, improved catpals so that you have the upper hand on the battleground.
