Wizard101 Pet Pedigree Calculator

1. Open your pet's full talent view and note each talent in the pool, manifested or not.
2. Pick those talents in the pool slots. If a slot shows only a rarity, choose the matching Other talent option. Leave unknown slots empty.
3. Read the estimated pedigree, the grade and how the score compares with the 75-90 range.

Here is what each result means:

A good total pedigree for a Wizard101 pet sits between 75 and 90. Final Bastion's beginner guide gives that range for most good pets, and it is the benchmark this calculator uses for its verdict.

Pedigree is a summary score for the rarity of a pet's talents. The pet screen shows two versions: a total pedigree for the whole pool and a manifested pedigree for the talents already shown. This tool estimates the total version.

A high pedigree is not the same as a good pet. Final Bastion's hatchmaking guide points out that rare talents are not always the best, and that a school giver is a strong talent even though it is only uncommon. Use pedigree to compare pools quickly, then check the actual talents against your build in the best Wizard101 pets by school guide.

The calculator gives each talent points by rarity, adds them up, and scales the total to a 10-talent pool when you pick fewer than 10.

1. Look up the rarity of each picked talent. Named talents use the rarity given in the Final Bastion guides.
2. Convert each rarity to the tool's assumed points and add them.
3. Divide by the number of talents picked and multiply by 10. With all 10 slots filled, the sum is used as it is.
4. Compare the estimate with 75-90 and place it on the tool's D to S grade scale.

Assumption: the points per rarity are this calculator's own scale, not published game values. The score is an estimate for comparing pools, and the in-game number can differ.

Suppose you know five talents in a pool: Pain-Giver (Ultra-Rare), Spell-Proof (Epic), Spell-Defying (Rare), School-Dealer (Ultra-Rare) and School-Giver (Uncommon).

Calculation: raw points = 9 + 11 + 7 + 9 + 5 = 41. Estimate = 41 / 5 x 10 = 82. The tool maximum for five talents is 55, so the pool reaches 74.5% of it.

What it means: an estimate of 82 sits inside the 75-90 range and earns an A on the tool scale. The other five talents are unknown, so the score assumes they average the same rarity. If the hidden slots turn out to be common talents, the full-pool score falls.

Four things move the estimate, and two of them come from the tool rather than the game.

Talent Rarity

Each step up in rarity adds 2 assumed points. Swapping one Common for one Epic in a full pool adds 8 points to the estimate.

How Many Slots You Fill

With fewer than 10 picks, the tool scales the average up. Five Epic talents therefore estimate 110, even though the other five slots may be weak.

The Assumed Points Scale

The 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 points are this tool's assumption. A different scale would change the number, so compare pools on this page with each other rather than with in-game figures.

Rarity Labels on Named Talents

Named talents use the rarity given in Final Bastion's guides. For any talent not in the list, pick the Other option that matches the rarity your pet screen shows. For how stats affect those talents, see how Wizard101 pet stats work.

Pedigree numbers are easy to over-read. The three ideas below answer different questions.

Ravenwood Academy's pet making guide notes that the kiosk organises pets by manifested pedigree. That makes pedigree a sorting tool, while talent quality decides the final pet.

Comparing Kiosk Pets

Two kiosk pets of the same species can carry very different pools. Enter each pool to compare them on one scale before you pay for a hatch.

Checking a New Hatch

A fresh egg shows rarity slots before it shows names. Pick the Other options that match those rarities for a quick first read.

Planning a Jewel

Pedigree covers talents only. Once the pool looks right, plan the jewel with the Wizard101 pet jewel calculator.

1. Treating Pedigree as Pet Quality

A pool full of rare talents can still be wrong for your school. Check the talents themselves before you train.

2. Comparing This Estimate with In-Game Numbers

The tool uses assumed points. Compare estimates with each other, and use the 75-90 range only as a rough guide.

3. Scoring Only the Best Talents

Picking only the talents you like inflates the scaled estimate. Include the weak slots you know about too.

4. Mixing Up Total and Manifested Pedigree

The kiosk sorts by manifested pedigree, which covers fewer talents than the total pool.

5. Chasing a Score Above 90

A very high score often means rare talents that do not fit a build. A pool inside the range with the right talents is the better pet.

The arithmetic is exact, but the score is an estimate because the points per rarity are this calculator's assumption.

Most good pets have a total pedigree of 75-90, according to Final Bastion's beginner guide. A score in that range is a sensible target, not a guarantee of quality.

No. Pedigree reflects rarity, and rare talents are not always the useful ones. A pool inside 75-90 with the right talents beats a higher score with the wrong ones.

The tool uses its own assumed points per rarity rather than the game's formula. Use the estimate to compare pools, not to predict the exact in-game value.

Pick the ones you know and leave the rest empty. The tool scales the average to 10 talents and says how many it used.

Final Bastion's talent calculator article lists Spell-Proof as an Epic talent, so the tool scores it at the Epic level of 11 assumed points.

Manifested pedigree covers only the talents already shown, so it rises as talents appear from Teen to Mega. Total pedigree covers the whole pool, manifested or not.

Yes. Enter each pool in turn and compare the estimates, since both use the same assumed scale.

It is this tool's own band: S is 90 or more, A is 78 to 89, B is 65 to 77, C is 50 to 64 and D is below 50. It is not a game rating.
