I got a special order from a new player from another server. He wanted 2 lvl10 tanks for him and his wife to play with. Since he was really friendly (unusual), I went out to dantooine and began to sample DNA from the proper mobs. My first two attempts were a success and I was stoked. Once I returned to my vendors and stocked up the backpack with order, I journeyed back to dantooine and filled all my storage droids with huurton pup DNA. Then filled my inventory with the proper voritor DNA. This part was most time consuming since I needed to only get AA quality samples and most of them were VH or something. So, I punched out about 14 lvl10 tanks in gurrcat skins and placed them on my vendors. Tomorrow I'll be able to register my vendors on the map. They will hopefully sell along with my tissues.


I had some other trials making these things though. About 5 or 6 of them came out lvl11. After a few of these, I began to record the numbers on the templates and recording their outcome. I want to know what numbers punch it up to lvl11 so I can avoid these errors. Then about 3 or 4 of them had bad experimentation results and yielded lvl8 or 9 pets with 0 resists.

Probably the number one thing that puts you over CL10 is damage - I have seen that more often than any other single factor, though it is far from the only one.


Resists of any kind other than the primary one you are trying for also raise the CL quickly. If you're trying for a good CL 10, pick one or at most 2 resists that you want, and make EVERYTHING else vulnerable, and you will have some room to work.


Ferocity trips the switch often too - power is not the only thing agression changes, and going over 50 or so there will almost certainly result in a CH level creature.


Other than those tips, I'm as in the dark as anyone else, even after months as a master and hundreds of pets made. It is such a complex system, and still so far from predictable that it is black art and alchemy more than science, I fear.


That being said, it's also fun. Good luck, that seems to be the most important ingredient.


Oh, and wear a red head scarf and stand on your left foot only when experimenting on prowess...
