Hot Fix Update

July 2nd, 2005


  • ELITE pets will be created with the appropriate (ELITE) stats






WHAT??? what does this MEAN? I assume she is talking about CH tamed from wild elite pets? Or can we suddenly craft elite pets (too much to hope for huh?).

NO! Just means that CH which have tamed elite pets will have elite pet stats again. Yesterday, many CH logged in to find their elite pets had 1/3 the health and damage they were supposed to have.


This will hopefully correct that oversight.

Being both a BE and a CH and therefore seeing both sides of the story I think both get treated equal bad.


CHs still do not have specials for their pets, pets warp or refuse to engage in battle, datapad pets being reset to lvl 0 and now Elites screwed up. The story goes on.


So both sides have been chewed badly and if the finger has to be pointed, then maybe it should be pointed elsewhere.


If you want to compare which profession is treated better then BE then CH is not a good choice.

Is there even any mentioning of pets getting specials back?

CHs will be able to learn a special from one creature that they've tamed and teach it to another pet. No mention of BE in the post.


So as I find it I'll post the link.

and here's the original, from a red name and all.

dorelli: when tiggs said "created", I assume she meant "generated from a PCD (pet control device)", or "spawned". we don't actually 'create'... we 'craft'. I'm guessing she meant 'create' in a larger, non-crafting, sense.

Cindal,


That is a whole new system similar to WoW's Hunter class. That kinda work is major and not something we will see in the next five mins.


I remember after they nerfed CHs really bad at the start and then talked about re-balanceing them with other professions.


That was AT LEAST A YEAR before the CU.


And who is to say itwill work out of the bag or will that need major hot fixes, etc. and how long will they take.


We can try to second guess what is going on and what profession is gettign the love, but it may be better to stick to the facts and history of things that have been, to try to look into the future.


Or at least clean your crystal ball once in a while.

The CH revamp was December of 2003, with the Combat Revamp supposed to be finished within three months. That of course had ramifications for BEs since it hit the CH profession very hard. With people figuring out how to make good armor and super buffs, it just got worse for both...

LOL, I gave no timeframe, merely supplied a response to the question of what is happening with specials. Been a CH on TC since Aug'03 and on Live on3 different servers, I've lived through it all.
