You paid 10k to much

First off, what lvl is a Cu Pa? And second, why the heck did the devs not include a creature lvl post on the examine screen? i mean honestly ppl, especially with the new patch it is extremely hard to know the exact lvl of a creature so it would be nice to be able to know a creature's level before u go and blow 10k on a kickass dewback because u think its level is still 18.

No-one has an opinion?

How to test this? Are the CL's of all creatures posted somewhere? I've never seen one come up on the <describe> radial option. Should be easy to test this if wild CL's are known.

It cant be - else a pet with lower stats with always be lower level - which isnt the case

jett - SWGCreatures.com has the CL

Wow! What a great resource. Had no idea this was out there.

Did you get an amazing sucess on assembly or a failure on experiment? these 2 things seem to whack the CL out of sync. I'm gonna keep trying - I will discover the secret to CL - its just so darn hard when theres so many uncontrollable variables

So far this has held true in my experiments - though it was only on low level DNA and therefore is only an estimate:-

For a DNA combine there is a 'minimum level' which I havent figured out exactly what that is, the best way to determine this is to combine the dna and dont experiment on it.

This method works for me provided I have all great sucesses, no amazings and no crit fails (I know, its hard to test with so much variance)

the CL = avg of the CL * (# of experiment points/10) + minimum level

This is working so far for me to great sucess. You might all think is complete BS but I thought I'd share, maybe someone can use this as a basis for their own theory

When you sample an animal, for instance a cu pa which I believe is CL15. If you were to use all cu pa samples in all 5 slots and craft an animal using no experimentation at all you'll end up with something lower than CL15.

The combine always lowers the stats. Experimentation allows you to exceed the CL15 by raising those stats. That's how we create higher or lower level animals. critical fails during experimenting can effect the critter level as well but that's not anything you can control outright.

Multi-generation animals use a variation on this theme. The best way to learn how multi-generations work is by playing around with the pet deeds you make. Combine DNA youget fromthem and experiment in certain areas. You'll get a higher or lower animal depending on what you use and how you experiment.
