11Overview22Pet equipment in Crimson Desert is a collection of cosmetic outfits and headgear that you can purchase for your pet companions. These items are purely decorative and do not provide any stat bonuses or gameplay advantages. Since pets do not participate in combat directly, the equipment exists solely to let you customize your companion's appearance. Every piece of pet equipment falls into one of two slots: Pet Helm (headgear) or Pet Outfit (body armor). Each pet can wear one helm and one outfit at the same time.44There are 11 pet equipment items in total: 6 for cats and 5 for dogs. All items share the same base price of 240 silver and can be purchased from specialized pet tailor shops found in select settlements across Pywel. The equipment designs range from knightly plate armor to cozy peddler outfits, each with a distinct visual theme that gives your pet a unique personality.66Cat Equipment88Cats have access to six equipment pieces: three helms and three outfits. These items can be mixed and matched freely on either cat breed (Longleaf Forest Cat and Pororin Cat). The table below lists every available cat equipment piece.1010ImageNameSlotDescriptionCat Plate HelmPet HelmA plate helm customized to fit a cat's head. It has a white feather on the top. The chin strap can be fastened tightly. This keeps it stays on during intense activities. It exudes the noble aura of a small but courageous knight.Peddler Cat HatPet HelmA colorful, patterned hat for cats. Densely woven with thick thread, this hat offers excellent heat retention. It has a large pom pom on the top and includes a chin strap. This keeps even the most active cats can wear it without worrying about it falling off.Uniform Cat HatPet HelmA hat for cats decorated elegantly with a feather. This wide-brimmed hat recreates the ceremonial uniform style, complete with an ornate feather. Crafted in a small size to fit a cat's head, it creates a gallant and adventurous look when equipped.Cat Plate ArmorPet OutfitPlate armor elaborately crafted for cats. Crafted from overlapping pieces of smooth plate, this equipment allows for unrestricted movement. The red cord accents create an impression that is both powerful and sophisticated. It is a piece of decorative armor designed more to enhance a cat's majesty than to provide actual defense.Peddler Cat OutfitPet OutfitA peddler outfit for cats with a rolled-up sleeping bag and a small water bottle on top of a red cover. It is lightweight, and when worn, it makes the cat look like a seasoned traveler or a porter.Uniform Cat OutfitPet OutfitA ceremonial uniform-style outfit made exclusively for cats. It comes as a set with an engraved neckpiece and a small cape. The fit is loose enough not to hinder the cat's flexible movements, and it even has a dedicated cutout for the tail. This keeps a snug fit.1212Dog Equipment1313Dogs have access to five equipment pieces: two helms and three outfits. These items work with all five dog breeds (Boarhand, Floppy-Eared Bulldog, Jindo, Pointy-Eared Bulldog, and Saluki). The table below lists every available dog equipment piece.1515ImageNameSlotDescriptionPuppy Plate HelmPet HelmA plate helm customized to fit a puppy's head. It has a white feather on the top. The chin strap can be fastened tightly. This keeps it stays on even the most active puppy's head. It exudes the aura of a loyal knight.Puppy Cloth HatPet HelmA soft blue fabric bandana for puppies. The golden ring embroidery on the forehead adds a touch of mystery. When worn, it makes your pet look like a little wizard.Puppy Plate ArmorPet OutfitA plate armor designed in consideration of a dog's active movements. Durable plates were stacked on top of each other for flexibility, resulting in minimal hindrance even when running vigorously or jumping high. The outfit exudes the dependability of a little knight on a battlefield.Puppy Cloth OutfitPet OutfitAn outfit for dogs crafted with deep blue fabric and finished with a golden trim. It uses soft materials for a comfortable fit, and the size can be adjusted using leather belts that wrap around the back and chest.Rescue Puppy OutfitPet OutfitAn outfit for rescue dogs that run through rough mountains. When worn, it completes the look of a dependable partner who helps an ally in crisis.1717Where to Buy1818Pet equipment is sold exclusively at pet tailor shops. There are two such shops in Pywel, and neither is available from the start of the game. You will need to progress through certain quests and build trust with the shop owners before the full selection becomes available.2020Milou's Tailor Shop (Pororin Forest Village)2222The primary pet tailor shop is run by Milou and is located in Pororin Village in the Pororin Forest area of Hernand. This village is initially sealed off from the player. To gain access, you must attempt to enter Pororin Village three times, which triggers a short quest chain:2424The Unreachable Village: The first quest in the chain. Attempting to enter the village multiple times draws the attention of the local inhabitants.Authorised Access: The follow-up quest that requires you to retrieve the Pororin Relic from a giant Ent and return it to Arkin. Completing this quest permanently unlocks entry to the village.2626Once you have access to the village, Milou's shop is available for purchases. The shop starts with a limited selection, and you can unlock additional items by increasing Milou's trust level. To raise trust with the shop, gift Milou their favorite items. Higher trust levels add new equipment pieces to the shop's inventory.2828Demeniss Tailor Shop3030A second pet tailor shop is located in the southwestern part of the City of Demeniss. This shop carries a similar selection of pet equipment but may have a more limited inventory compared to Milou's shop in Pororin. Like Milou's shop, increasing the Demeniss tailor's trust level through gifts will unlock additional items for purchase.3232Secret Shop (Pororin)3434A new secret shop was added in Patch 1.04 in Pororin that sells pet equipment. It is a separate vendor from the main Pet Shop and from the established tailor shops above, meaning the full pet equipment roster now spans more than one location. Expect the secret shop to stock items that overlap partially with what the existing vendors sell, and possibly exclusive pieces that are not available elsewhere. Inventory rotates regionally in the same way other trade shops do, so it is worth visiting every pet equipment vendor to see the full selection.3636Because the shop is described as a secret, expect it to be tucked away rather than marked prominently on the main vendor map. Explore the area, look for an unmarked or hidden shopkeeper, and check the store for pet gear categories.3838Pricing4040Every pet equipment item costs a flat 240 silver (displayed as 2.40 in silver coin notation). There are no discounts or bulk pricing. Given that there are 11 items total, purchasing the complete collection costs 2,640 silver. Silver is not hard to come by later in the game, but early on you may need to prioritize which pieces to buy first. Consider purchasing outfits for whichever pet species you actively use before collecting everything.4242Refinement4444All pet equipment items support the refinement system. Each piece starts at +0 when purchased. The game's database lists refinement columns for Level, Stats, Materials, and Price for pet gear, following the same structure as the general equipment refinement system used for weapons and armor. However, since pet equipment is classified as cosmetic gear, the refinement system for these items does not provide meaningful combat stat increases in the same way that weapon or armor refinement does. Pet equipment is designed to enhance your companion's appearance rather than boost performance.4646If you are looking to invest refinement materials for tangible gameplay improvements, prioritize upgrading your own weapons, armor, and mount gear before spending resources on pet cosmetics.4848Equipment Slots5050Each pet has three equipment slots: one for a helm, one for an outfit, and, after Patch 1.04, one for an accessory. The Accessory slot was added in Patch 1.04 to give pets a wider variety of roles and behaviors beyond pure cosmetics, and it is where behavior-modifying items like the Sigil of Bonding are equipped. You can fill one item in each slot simultaneously, so a fully kitted pet wears a hat, a body outfit, and an accessory at the same time.5252SlotIntroducedWhat It HoldsEffect on PetPet HelmLaunchHats, bandanas, and plate helms. See All Pet Helms for the complete list.Purely cosmetic; changes the look of the pet's head.Pet OutfitLaunchBody armor, cloth outfits, peddler packs, and rescue gear. See All Pet Outfits for the complete list.Purely cosmetic; changes the look of the pet's body.Pet AccessoryPatch 1.04Behavior-modifying accessories such as the Sigil of Bonding for cats.Functional; the slot was designed to let pets take on a wider variety of roles rather than being cosmetic only.5454To equip an item, purchase it from a vendor, then open your Inventory and apply it to your active pet through the Pets tab. Unequipping an item returns it to your inventory for later use or to swap onto a different pet.5555Cat equipment can only be equipped on cats, and dog equipment can only be equipped on dogs. There is no cross-species compatibility. Within each species, any helm works with any outfit, so feel free to mix and match the Plate Helm with the Peddler Outfit, or any other combination that suits your taste. Accessory compatibility depends on the accessory; the Sigil of Bonding, for example, is specific to cats.5757The same pet roster and equipment pool is shared across all three playable characters, Kliff, Damiane, and Oongka, so an outfit or accessory purchased on one character is available to the pet regardless of which character is summoning it. For first-time pet owners, see the Pet Taming Guide for how to build trust and adopt a pet in the first place; pet equipment is only useful after a pet has been tamed.5959Accessories6161Pet accessories are a new category introduced in Patch 1.04 that fills the newly added Accessory slot. The first known accessory is the Sigil of Bonding, a cat-focused item that extends how long a cat can sit on the player's shoulder. More pet accessories may appear in future updates as additional pet roles are introduced.6363Sigil of Bonding is the inaugural pet accessory. Before Patch 1.04 a bug let cats remain on the shoulder indefinitely, and many players liked the behavior. The patch fixed the bug so cats now hop down after a short period by default, but it also added the Sigil of Bonding so players who enjoyed the longer shoulder time can opt back in. Equipping the Sigil of Bonding on a cat pet lets that cat stay on the shoulder for a noticeably longer duration than the default. It is specifically a cat accessory; there is no equivalent item for dogs or other pets yet.6565Because the Sigil of Bonding is a behavior-modifying accessory rather than a cosmetic, it slots into the Accessory slot alongside whichever Pet Helm and Pet Outfit you have chosen, so a cat can wear a plate helm, a peddler outfit, and the Sigil of Bonding at the same time without losing a single visual piece.6767Themed Sets6969While there is no formal set bonus system in the game, the pet equipment is organized into thematic pairs that share a visual style. Wearing matching helms and outfits from the same theme gives your pet a cohesive look.7171Cat Sets7373Plate Set: Cat Plate Helm + Cat Plate Armor. A knightly aesthetic with overlapping metal plates and a feathered helm. Red cord accents tie the look together.Peddler Set: Peddler Cat Hat + Peddler Cat Outfit. A traveling merchant theme with a colorful woven hat and a backpack-style outfit complete with a sleeping bag and water bottle.Uniform Set: Uniform Cat Hat + Uniform Cat Outfit. A ceremonial military look featuring a feathered wide-brim hat paired with a caped outfit and engraved neckpiece.7575Dog Sets7777Plate Set: Puppy Plate Helm + Puppy Plate Armor. A miniature knight look with stacked durable plates and a feathered metal helm. Built for a look that says loyal battlefield companion.Cloth Set: Puppy Cloth Hat + Puppy Cloth Outfit. A wizard-themed soft fabric set with a blue bandana featuring golden ring embroidery and a matching deep blue outfit with golden trim.Rescue Outfit: Rescue Puppy Outfit. A standalone body outfit with no matching helm. This mountain rescue-themed piece gives your dog the look of a dependable search-and-rescue companion.7979Tips8181Unlock Pororin Village early. The Unreachable Village quest chain is available relatively early. Complete it as soon as possible to access Milou's shop and start collecting pet outfits.Build trust with the tailor. Gifting the tailor their favorite items increases trust, which unlocks more equipment for purchase. Visit regularly and bring gifts to expand the available selection.Mix and match freely. There are no set bonuses, so you can combine any helm with any outfit within the same species. Experiment with different pairings to find a look you enjoy.Prioritize your main pet. If silver is tight early on, buy equipment for the pet you use most often. You can always come back for the rest later when money is more plentiful.Save refinement materials for combat gear. Pet equipment supports the refinement system, but since these items are cosmetic, your refinement materials are better spent on weapons, armor, and shields that directly improve your combat effectiveness.Both cats and dogs have equipment. Cats have six items (three helms, three outfits) while dogs have five items (two helms, three outfits). Plan your purchases accordingly if you want to outfit companions of both species.Check both tailor shops. The Demeniss tailor and Milou's shop in Pororin may carry overlapping inventories, but trust progression differs between them. Visiting both shops gives you more options.8383See Also8585Pets (overview of the pet system and all breeds)Pet Taming Guide (how to tame and manage pet companions)BoarhandFloppy-Eared BulldogJindoPointy-Eared BulldogSalukiLongleaf Forest CatPororin CatPororin VillageRefinement and Upgrade MaterialsMount Gear8787How to Unlock Pet Equipment8989Pet equipment is only useful once you have an adopted pet, and adoption requires maxing that pet's trust to 100. The fastest path is covered in the Pet Taming Guide: five pets per day at +5 each plus three feedings per day at +10 each clears the cap in two in-game days even without a favourite-food lucky hit.9191Where to Buy Pet Equipment9393Pet gear is stocked at the dedicated Pet Shop, not the general armour or tailor vendors. Inventory rotates regionally in the same way that other trade shops do, so the full roster of pet items requires visiting multiple shop locations across the map.9595Pet Trust Gain Affix on Abyss Gear9797Separately from pet equipment itself, some abyss gears roll a pet trust gain affix that multiplies only pet petting and feeding. Slot this alongside the Rabbit Leather Mask's +2 trust gain if you are trying to adopt every dog and cat in Pywel. The general trust-gain affix on other abyss gears applies to shopkeepers and NPCs, not pets.9999New Pet-Position Items101101Patch 1.04 introduced the first behavior-modifying pet items and expanded the ways the player can carry small companions around the world. Two items sit at the centre of this change: one slots into a pet's Accessory slot, and the other is placed on the ground in the world to attract birds. Both are tied to Pororin Forest content, so players working through that region unlock access to both around the same time.103103Sigil of Bonding (Cat Accessory)105105The Sigil of Bonding is the first confirmed pet accessory in the game and slots into the new Accessory slot on a tamed cat. When equipped, the cat rides permanently on the player's shoulder. Unlike the pre-patch shoulder behaviour, the cat does not flinch off when the player starts running, sprints across rough terrain, or enters combat. It only briefly hops down to pick up nearby loot and then climbs straight back onto the shoulder.107107The item is sold by Lacey, a roaming vendor added in Patch 1.04 who walks the main road that encircles Pororin Village in the Pororin Forest area of Hernand. Lacey is identifiable by the large backpack she carries as she walks the loop. Her stock also includes Palmar Pill consumables, so a single visit covers both supply restocking and the Sigil purchase. Because Lacey patrols a fixed route rather than standing at a stall, the first attempt to find her often requires walking the road until her path crosses the player's.109109Equipping the Sigil of Bonding requires an already-tamed cat. Summon the cat through the pet menu, open its pet inventory tab, and slot the Sigil into the Accessory row. Dogs, birds, and other species cannot use this item; it is strictly a cat accessory. Raising the cat's bond through the usual companion trust system is not required to use the Sigil, but see the Pet Taming Guide for how to reach trust 100 and adopt a cat in the first place.111111Sigil of Bond (Bird Feeder, Placed Item)113113The Sigil of Bond is a separate item despite the similar name. It is not an accessory equipped onto a pet; it is a placeable bird-feeder the player drops on the ground to attract and tame wild birds. The feeder is loaded with food, left on high ground such as a cliff top along a bird's flight path, and birds will circle down to feed over the following minutes, raising trust toward the 100 threshold required for taming a crow, an eagle, an owl, or other bird species.115115The Sigil of Bond is acquired by completing the Authorized Access quest line in Pororin Village, which is handed over by one of the local tree guardians once access to the village is granted. Players who already completed that quest before Patch 1.04 shipped receive the Sigil retroactively on their next login, with a popup acknowledging the grant. If the Sigil is lost or accidentally sold, it can be re-issued from the camp provisioner's inventory at Greymane Camp.117117Because the Sigil of Bond is not slotted onto a pet, it does not use the Accessory slot on any bird, cat, or dog. It lives in the player's quick-use inventory alongside other utility items. Full instructions for using the feeder, best placement spots, and recommended food loadouts for each bird species are covered in the Pet Taming Guide; this article only notes the item's existence to keep the new Sigil of Bonding clearly distinct from the similarly-named feeder.119119Player-Worn Items That Affect Pet Behavior121121A small number of player equipment pieces change how pets position themselves on the character, even though those pieces are not pet equipment and occupy the player's own armour slots. These items are listed here for reference so that players searching for pet-behavior gear find them in one place.123123The Pororin Petal Hat, a cloth headgear piece obtained through Pororin Forest content, acts as an additional perch surface for smaller flying companions when worn by the player. With the hat equipped, light-frame birds such as the Crow land directly on the petals of the hat rather than on the player's shoulder or outstretched hand, producing a noticeably different resting pose. Larger flying companions, including the legendary Phoenix tamed through the Sighting of the Phoenix chain, continue to roost on the player's arm because the hat is simply too small a platform for them. The positioning change is purely cosmetic and has no effect on loot collection range, combat assistance, or trust gain.125125Pet-Behavior Items Summary127127The three items above sit in different slots but all influence where or how pets position themselves. Use the table as a quick reference.129129ItemSlotEffectSigil of BondingPet Accessory (Cat)Makes the tamed cat ride permanently on the player's shoulder.

Added in Patch 1.04.Sigil of Bond: Quest reward from Authorized Access in Pororin Village. Players who already cleared the quest pre-patch receive the Sigil retroactively on next login; a camp provisioner at Greymane Camp re-issues it if lost.Pororin Petal Hat: Cloth headgear associated with Pororin Forest content. See the Pororin Petal Hat article for the full stat block, refinement path, and acquisition route.134134Patch 1.04 Changes136136Patch 1.04 delivered three significant updates to pet equipment as part of a broader expansion of the pet system that also added birds as a pet category, five new cat pets, and the ability to tame the Abyss Hoolong as a pet:138138Accessory slot added. Pets now have a dedicated accessory slot on top of the existing helm and outfit slots. This slot is designed to unlock a wider variety of pet roles and behaviors and is where future behavior-modifying pet items will go.Sigil of Bonding. The first pet accessory, a cat-focused item that makes a cat stay on the player's shoulder for a longer period of time. It is an opt-in response to the patch's separate bug fix that stopped cats from sitting on the shoulder indefinitely by default.Secret shop in Pororin. A new vendor in Pororin now sells pet equipment, adding a third (and secret) location on top of the main Pet Shop and the existing tailor shops. Treat it as a separate vendor with a potentially distinct stock.140140Patch 1.04 also stocked new outfits at the Back Alley Shop for the player characters themselves, so a pet equipment shopping run is a good moment to visit the other patch-updated vendors as well. For the full list of non-pet Patch 1.04 changes, see Patch Notes.
