Hello all,

I'm a 3-2-2-4 Creature Handler and just found a great deal from a friendly Bio-Eng on a Rancor. My question is: If I pull it out of my inventory to tame it, knowing I still cannot use the Rancor, will I still be able to store it on my datapad? I don't want to tame the Rancor deed, and then not be able to store it to my datapad. I plan on holding the big guy until I can use him, but I couldn't pass up the deal. I do not know how grown it is, or when the deed was made, if that is info you require. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Satris

Most likely you will not be able to tame the rancor. I am fairly sure you have to be able to tame the wild version to be able to tame the BE version.

All BE pets are like pets tamed in the wild. They start out as babies and take about a week to grow.

While I am not aMaster Bio-Eng (4,0,4,4)yet or a Master CH (1,1,0,1), but from my experience, you need to be able to handle the creature before you can use the Tame feature on the deed. And from my experience all my creatures start as babies.

If I'm wrong, please would a Master post and clarify... it's still new to me and I am looking to learn

Thanks for the responses. One more thing I noticed, When I highlight the rancor deed with my mouse cursor, it DOES give me the lit-up version of tame (not the shaded not able version) on the rotary dial. Maybe I should just try it, seeing as it appears he will be a baby. lol, nope, I'll wait for more BE info. Thanks for the info all.

rancor deeds are CL50. You will need nearly master CH to tame/control. also, once tamed, the creature is at 10% and will grow to cl50 within 9 days.

As for your concerns. Hit tame if is successful, all is good (and you should be able to use it as well till it gets too big or you get more CH xp. If not, you won't lose anything. the deed will remain and you'll just have to wait till you get more CH xp. Either way you win. Just don't get your hopes up. you need at least a 15% chance to tame a creature in order for you to actually tame it. My guess is you won't be able to. but if you are able, it will go to your datapad automatically just like anything else you tame. I say go for it. you have nothing to lose.

novices, gah!

when taming a deed, there is no % chance to tame. It's a no fail tame. and it only works if you have the required skill to call the creature at full strength. so, in this case he cant tame it till he is at 4/4/4/4

In the current system you need 4-4-0-4 or 4-4-4-0 in order to control a level 50 creature. Someone with those skills could tame it for you and you may be able to use it while its a baby, but soon it would out grow your ability.
