    i have raise kresh and an oasis turtle about 10 lvs together and they both had the exact same stats the whole way through i belive that each type of pet has only one stat line no matter if it starts as an elite or not.

    Yes, the only differences between pets of the same level in the same pet family is skin color & pet skills they may have. Being Elite makes no difference to base pet stats (attack speed, hit points, attack power, damage, run speed or anything else). The single exception to this is "caster pets". Pets that have a mana bar before you tame them will, unfortunately, have lower base stats than the same pet without the mana-bar-before-taming.

    As to pet skills, there is virtually nothing available on an Elite that cannot be found on non-Elite mobs. Semi-exceptions to this include:
    --Poison Spit. Ranks 1 & 2 are only off Elite Serpents. But Rank 3 can be found on a level 68 non-Elite Serpent.
    --Lightning Breath. Rank 1 is only off Deviate Coiler Hatchlings, which are Elites (level 11...heh).

    As I've mentioned before on Thottbot, check out http://petopia.brashendeavors.net--as well as the other Hunter links on its "More Hunter Resources" page--for accurate Hunter/pet info.
