2 X level 15's with light armor and "max kinetic" (which he thought was 100%), different specials on each. He must have thought my protests were just trying to get more money, because he offered to pay 200K for the both of them. LOL.

I mostly get reasonable requests, so I don't complain much about the foolish ones. Heck I don't really know what my limits are, so how can I complain about others in the game not knowing.

Mostly they are the non-ch requests. A customer will come up to me or send me a /tell:

I'd like a non-ch pet...

a really good tank...

high kinetic, high ham...

light armor if possible...

and I'd like it to have the following specials...

At this point I just stop them and tell them they really need to get CH

I've currently got an order for a lvl 70 kimo with 14k HAM, 60 all resists, 700+ damage, Strong Poison/Intimidate. Hehe, I talked her into accepting blast and cold vuln, 12k ham, and 550 damage. The rest I can do.

I recently got a /tell asking for a kimo with 14K HAM and high resists...but wait...

The guy wanted it non-CH, and when I told him the CL min for a kimo was 40, he asked for a cat instead...with the same stats. I just told him that was impossible and ignored him

Honestly, I'd say that most of the "outrageous" pet orders I've gotten are from people who don't know much about the CH profession. I've almost stopped, or hardly ever entertain requests for "Uber" Non CH pets. Probably because they want a miracle, not a bio engineered pet.
So here's my most unrealistic request so far.

CL 70 (max)
Health 14K+
Action 14K+
Mind 14K+
Armour: Light (And there I was, expecting it to say Medium....)
Kinetic 60+
Energy 70+
Blast 70+
Heat 70+
Cold 70+
Electric 70+
Stun 60+
Acid 60+

Damage 600+
Ranged Yes, if possible (whoaa...)
Strong Poison
Stunning Strike.

The great thing I liked about it was...all the +'s behind the numbers...
Thankfully, he was nice enough, when I mentioned the caps for each resist, and it would be pretty darn near impossible to get them all that high with that HAM and keep damage output high as well. He then allowed me to introduce some lowerresists andsome other factors. So, it's not such a nightmare anymore...

Heck, I haven't even been able a pet to match those resists barring the rest of the factors.
You'd think a CH who could control a CL70 pet would actually know about creature stats no?

Then you get therandom,
"Dude, you suck, my friend's CL 10 pet has all that, and it's Non-CH!"
"It'll stop working during the next patch"
"Can you make me the same thing after the patch then?"

That being said, I finally made my first CL60 today, with 54/53 Kinetic/Energy resists, and vulnerable to nothing

Someone asked me if I can do rancors yet - I denied as I am not a master. Told him that ina few days I might be able to. He then told me:

I want a Rancor or Kimogillawith 14k HAM 60 Kin / Energy, 40 on rest, 600ish damage, Light Armor, Strong Disease, Strong Poison - and ranged if you can please. I will pay you 60k for it.

I was speechless and didnt reply ever since

I like how customers think that they can dictate the price of the pets we make...I geta laugh out of it every time and tell them to find another MBE that will do as they say

hehehehehe.

him- Hey Nikk, u make pets?

me- yes

him- i want a Kimo high ham/damage/resists

me- Ok, so a CL70?

him- how much u charge?

( I started typing but I am slow, so his next one came out before I could tell him the cost depends on final stats)

him- my friend got one for 30K can you beat that?

( I deleted all that I WAS going to respond with when I saw that and just typed )

me- Cool, That would be your best bet then.

him- hey what u charge for a kimo?

( at this point a friend came by and I just started talking to him )

Hello my fellow MBEs:

Somedays I feel like I should just quit this profession and then i meet with my Master Tailor who love my work and I feel much better! But this request came in on one of the days I wanted to quit.

Customer: heyI need a pet. I am a Novice CH can you make me a level 12, Gurreck, light armor, 60% resists, 10K ham, with strong posion and strong Disease.

I almost laughed. Except that it is so sad that our customers do not know enough to know what is even possible.

What she got was a gurrcat with 33%kin, no armor, 4k ham, and a posion attack. She was a little disappointed but that did not stop her from buying pets for her next 5 CL levels spending close to 150k.

So I guess the shoot for the moon and hope they hit something!
