Free Fire's upcoming big update for December is almost here - the OB25 patch's Advance Server has gone live. This is the last big update of Free Fire this year, with two new characters, 2 new weapons and more... Amongst the new additions, there is one that players often overlook: Free Fire is also getting a new Baboon pet.
In this article, we would list out everything you need to know about this new pet and whether or not it would create any impact in game.
1 - About Free Fire Baboon Pet
The new pet in the Brazillian Advance server is named Brabuino... which is literally "baboon" in Portuguese. It is likely that he would get a new name when the patch hit, just like the Penguin pet "Mr. Waggor" or the Racoon pet "Rockie".
He is probably the biggest pet ever released in Free Fire - his arms are as big as the players'. His attire is more or less that of the typical Guerrillas commonly found in South America, with armguard, bandana, ammo belt... Besides that, the guy is also pretty hairy, with a huge mane and a big red nose.

2 - Free Fire Baboon Pet Ability
Ability
The Baboon's ability is named "Lançando a Braba"... which is just "Hurling" in Portuguese. It increases the distance of your grenade throws by 10, 15 and 20% on level 1 2 and 3 respectively. This works on all grenades, from normal to Gloo, Flash and Smoke.
Analysis
Overall, this ability sounds rather underpowered - it is certainly useful, of course, as most people miss their grenades because they misjudge the range of their throws. However, it is not really a good idea to waste the pet slot just for a 20% throw range increase.
However, it is still possible that the pet would be buffed on release - Garena usually listens to player feedback... they buffed Jai and Dasha before this.
