Ride A Pet Radar Guide - All 6 Tiers & Which to Buy
Complete Ride A Pet radar guide: the $50 Advanced to the $30M Eternal radar ladder, what each tier tracks, and the smartest purchase order for every stage.
Why the Radar Is Your First Real Purchase
Egg hunting without a radar is searching blind. The radar system automatically tracks eggs of a specific rarity tier across the map, turning random wandering into targeted routes. It is also the one system where in-game cash directly converts into hatch volume — the entire ladder lives in Rick’s Shop.

|---|---|---|---|
| Advanced | $50 | Entry-level detection | Buy immediately — no excuse |

Tier-by-Tier Buying Advice
Advanced ($50): Buy in Your First Session
The $50 Advanced Radar is the best value purchase in the entire game. It pays for itself within minutes by ending blind searching. If you have not bought it, stop reading and buy it.
Royal ($20,000): Your First Savings Goal
Royal upgrades your detection meaningfully and carries you through the Rare and Epic egg tiers. Buy it when your ranch income makes $20K feel small — usually around Rebirth 1.
Magic ($300,000): The Mid-Game Standard
Magic tracks the rare tiers you will actually farm for progression pets. This is the tier most Rebirth 2-4 players run daily. Pair it with the egg respawn routes to maximize hatch volume.
Eternal ($30,000,000): The Event Egg Key
The Eternal Radar is the single most important late-game radar because it tracks Ethereal-tier eggs — Black Hole, Cherub, and Solaris. When a 100-billion-Luck Black Hole Egg spawns with a server-wide announcement, Eternal Radar owners know exactly where to race. If you chase event eggs, this is your purchase.
Divine and Ethereal: Late-Game Luxury
The top two tiers push detection to its limits. Buy them when the lower tiers feel restrictive and your income supports the cost — they are upgrades, not requirements.
The Smart Purchase Order
| Stage | Radar Target |
|---|---|
| First hour | Advanced ($50) |
| Rebirth 1 | Royal ($20,000) |
| Rebirth 2-3 | Magic ($300,000) |
| Event egg hunter | Eternal ($30M) |
| Completionist | Divine, then Ethereal |
