Thread: 10 straight DNA sampling failures on a group of Longhorn Pikets....
I'm master BE so it was to my complete surprise when I failed 10 times out of 10 tries to get DNA samles from longhorn pikets. Thinking it might have been a *random* event, I went to a different longhorn piket lair and tried it again. Same results, 10 failures out of 10 tries. This happened to 4 different longhorns in 2 different lairs.
Is this a bug? Or a new Dev Team feature? Anyone else seeing this?
whenever I get a significant amount of sample failures, it's because I'm either
a) sampling something I shouldn't
b) inventory is full
I spent almost my entire apprentice hood sampling various types of Piket's on Dantooine. What great DNA sampling xp they are for the risk.
However, I've noted they're very strange. At times, I would agro EVERY SINGLE ATTEMPT. It's like, once you agro a Piket, forget it. You'll never DNA sample it again. It'll agro every time after that.
I seem to have less success also. I've been DNA Sampling Pikets now for the last couple of days for some critters I want to make. It's a long, grueling experience trying to get 75 or so DNA samples from them.
