Best Pets Tier List (Aug 2026 Sell Ores Pet Roster)

The August 18, 2026 update expanded the Sell Ores pet roster to 51 pets. Most are recolours with marginal stat differences; a handful are meta-defining. This page ranks every pet by multiplier contribution (how much extra Cash each one adds to your ore processing) and fusion cost (how many duplicate pets you need to fuse to reach the highest tier). For the full per-pet roster, see the Pets Roster page. For Pet Fusion mechanics, jump to the August 18 update notes.

How pet multipliers stack

Pet multipliers stack additively across the active pet and multiplicatively with floor multipliers. The Floor 7 base multiplier is 4.5x; an S-tier pet adds another 1.25x to 1.5x on top, so a top-tier pet on Floor 7 pushes you to a 5.6x to 6.7x effective Cash multiplier. The full math is on the Best Ores page.

S tier �?must-haves

  • Devil’s Snacc �?Top multiplier (1.5x). Drops from the Devil’s Snacc Egg on Floor 7. Fusion cost is high (4 duplicates to reach max tier), but the multiplier is best in class.
  • Cosmic Ram �?1.45x multiplier. Strongest pairing with Voidshard Ore. Cheaper fusion chain than Devil’s Snacc.
  • Infernal Cat �?1.4x multiplier. Pairs with Magmaite Ore for a hidden +10% combo bonus. The August 25 update added the combo system.

These three pets are the only ones that meaningfully change your Cash/hour on Floor 7. If you only ever hatch one pet, make it one of these.

A tier �?strong supports

  • Lava Wolf �?1.25x. Cheaper fusion than S-tier pets. The best A-tier pick for accounts that have not yet cleared Floor 7.
  • Magma Cub �?1.2x. Best pairing with Magmaite Ore. Strong mid-game pet.
  • Crystal Fox �?1.18x. Solid all-rounder, no Floor restriction.
  • Phoenix Chick �?1.15x. The only A-tier pet that drops on Floor 4. Great early-game pick.

These four pets are worth fusing once you have the duplicates. They are not apex tier but they are not far behind.

B tier �?situational

  • Electric Eel �?1.1x. Best on Floor 5 Lightning Ore.
  • Frost Bear �?1.1x. Pairs with Aurora Quartz for a +5% combo.
  • Sand Cat �?1.08x. Floor 3 only. Cheap to hatch, cheap to fuse.

B-tier pets are placeholders. Fuse them only if you cannot reach an A or S tier pet yet.

C tier �?skip

The remaining 40+ pets in the roster. Most give 1.0x to 1.05x multipliers and are recolours of the A and B tier pets. Skip them unless they are part of a fusion chain you are already running.

Best pet by Floor

  • Floor 1�? �?Phoenix Chick. The only A-tier pet you can hatch early.
  • Floor 3�? �?Sand Cat, then Phoenix Chick upgrade.
  • Floor 5 �?Lava Wolf or Magma Cub.
  • Floor 6 �?Crystal Fox.
  • Floor 7 �?Devil’s Snacc, Cosmic Ram or Infernal Cat.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

What is the best pet in Sell Ores right now?

Devil's Snacc. It gives a 1.5x multiplier on top of the Floor 7 base. Cosmic Ram is the closest rival with 1.45x and a cheaper fusion chain.

How many pets are in the game?

51 pets after the August 18, 2026 expansion. Most are recolours. Only the 11 pets on this page are meta-relevant.

When should I start fusing pets?

Floor 5 or above. Duplicate pet drops are too rare on lower Floors to make fusion cost-effective before then.

Do pet multipliers stack with each other?

No. Only the active pet's multiplier applies. You can hold duplicates in your inventory to use for fusion, but they do not stack their multipliers.

Can I hatch pets from codes?

Codes do not hatch pets directly. The PETFUSION code gives a Devil's Growth Gem, which is used for the Devil's Snacc fusion chain. See the [Active Codes](/codes/all-active/) page for the latest list.
