You'll know when the patch comes live, but I would assume that 2kHAM would be ok.

3000 in a single pool one's are pushing it that much is certain, I'm gonna laugh so hard at the people stll selling ones which are 9k+, those must be around CL40 judging from that one which got converted.

My concern is that was a CH pet (CL 14), so it obviously not going to be limited to non-CH pets.

Today I called my mount, a dewback made with the bugged Kahmurith Dna, and I was told it was invalid.

I was then given the option to adjust the level to the stats or the stats to the level.

I choose to change the level to the stats and my CL 14,7k HAM Dewback with 42% resists and Strong Poinson became a CL 33 Dewback with the same stats.

Looks like our issues with "uber" pets have been solved.

what where all the stats on that pet?

I think the reason its taken so long to get a fix in is because they have been trying to work out a better underlying CL calculation. I am interested (and not a little concerned) to see how that will affect my higher end creations that I use on a day to day basis.

This won't be the last nerf since most BE's will start working overtime to find yet another hole in the system to make 9k HAM lvl 1 pets. Then another nerf will come, then another, until finally we're back to square one, making tissues for Tailors and Chefs.

Why they don't make a good CL equation, then add a hard cap on resists/damage/HAM based upon the CL I'll never understand.

This is good news indeed.

Why think it limited to non-ch pets? I had somemy older ones zorked before they removed that code. It has to do with all pets. Now I can make pets again now that I know that they will not become disabled and that was my fear. So people can keep the cl when it is important or adjust to whatever when its not. I think this is done right for a change.

No we don't know what will be what after this goes in but at least they will still be alive. That give me something I can work with and of to the critter busness I go again.

I don't think anyone was working to find this hole. Someone sampled something, got a great result, posted it, and off it went. I'd like to think that next time more people would recognize the problem early on and stop using it, but I'm not terribly optimistic.

Sounds like they got a good fix lined up, at least.

A nerf is when something has existed for a long time and they finally decided it was too powerful, meaning that it was originally designed that way. For example the changes to DOTs in this combat balance is a nerf, what is happening to the clones is actually a fix because they were broken.

I have to agree with Tal-N on this one. This isn't a nerf, it's a bug fix.
