Currently MCH/MBE, but before hearing about the new CL 80 requirements I had decided I will switch to MCH/MBH and have my other toon, who is Master Chef, also pick up MBE. The reasoning was I wanted to be able to get my own high level missions for mission DNA without needing help (MCH/MBH gets the missions and makes them spawn, then MBE/MChef samples the DNA). So, this change, if it goes through, won't affect my plans. I understand not everybody can afford two accounts though.


The proposed new CL 80 requirements are certainly bad for those withMBE/MCH templates. If an MBE/MCH were able to control a CL 80 creature, he still wouldn't have anywhere near thecombat abilityof an MCH with another combat profession Mastery, so I don't know whyanyone would have a problem with an MCH/MBE being able to control a CL 80 creature. If we make enough noise - along with providing sound logic - I don't see why SOE would go with theproposed CL 80 requirements.

Happy for my CH half because I'm having more fun as a CH now than a BE (becoming master CH only a couple of weeks ago and its still new ).


I've been a BE since the game launched and have seen many many things for the BE getting no attention, or very slow attention (like taking over 6 months after launch to even allow BE's to use factories for tissues and stims). This is just one more non-attention instance for the BE's as I think BE's are hybrid combat professions and should have the CL to acknowledge this (we need scout and medic, both combat professions, to become a BE).


As to the topic of my post, the CH in me isglad for CH content(not the requirements) and the BE in me is not glad because I'll have to drop BE to take advantage of an ability a master CH should have with the master CH box alone (my opinion).

I am a former MCH/MBE/Ranger 0300.

My reasons for dropping MBE (quite a while ago now) were different at the time, however the CU CL system and things like this would have certainly been big factors had I kept it.

I also have the CL61mBE/R/mCH template ofMBE/MCH/Ranger Tracking 3 (0030), and being MBE/MCH was what brought me to the game to start with 2 weeks after launch (though it was a long road to get there).


I've been considering using my respec to go more towards combat and reach CL80 because I feel alot of content isn't accessible to me now. I enjoy making BE pets, and have even managed to sell a few without even trying. I'm mainly in it for myself, though, as I know that making BE pets requires a level of devotion and understanding I don't expect to stumble across randomly (that said, even as an MCH/MBE I shelled out 500k for a sweet CL69 Gurreck and felt it was worth every bit of the price). I worked with tissues for a while, but the whole resource harvesting game is too much like real work So far my respec has been slow in happening because of this, and I'm sure if BE gets some love eventually I'll be back (more skins, better crafting interface, no loss of DNA on a crit fail... grrr..., etc would help alot). Dropping BE to reach CL80 is IMO a trade off from one sort of entertainment (making pets) to another (end-game content all over the place wot requires CL80 to reach), and was a decision I'd made before the CL80 pet quests in the expansion had been announced.
