anyone know that when the new creature system goes in if it will change already existing dna? Or, shall I just stop sampling and wait until the patch?

I figured just checking, also I hate the fact that to get any real good dna I have to become a Ranger, dont see other crafting classes requiring something else to get their resources.

Every crafting profession is tied to artisian, smuggler to unarmed? De master artisian, the list is endless stupid ow yeh, but you certainly arent alone.

Wait a min, so all the DNA I have now will be useless after the patch? I sure hope not, I have a ton of DNA.

Not really stupid, its to stimulate the economy, it may not work 100%, but its a nice thing. They wanted to make everyone dependant on each other, and they have done a decent job.
They don't want a verticle business (Where 1 person/company conotrolls all the process from resources to production to sales)

Excuse me if I'm misunderstanding this, but I'm not a BE. My understandingis as follows:while Doctors, Architects, etc, depend on players in other professions to supply components (ie: Architects have to get cloth from Tailors); Bio-engineers will actually have to learn Ranger skills to collect high level samples. That's a little different from player cooperation. If a Ranger can help a BE with this task, please explain how. Thanks.

This isn't what he meant... I can completely see the problem. Anyone can harvest resources for a Doctor, but only a Bio-Engineer can sample DNA for a Bio-Engineer. With that in mind, the only way to get close to high CL aggros to take DNA is to have maskscent/camo.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought there was something rangers could make to mask people's scent for them.....is this what he means by being dependant on the profession? Or is he saying we're dependant/going to be dependant on ranger as a support profession for ourselves? Like we need to take up ranger. Personally, I did that so I could track animals and collect more meat from them. Not that it helps all that much when I have no combat 
but still, a few extra meat here and there add up. I think there is a lot of profession interdependance in the game, and in some ways it's a little annoying to not be able to pick exactly what you want to be in order to be the best at one of your professions. I would suggest making some really good tissues for maskscent/camo, and get a tailor to make you some clothes with them. Don't know exactly how much that will actually help, but it is one way to try to beat the system.
