Thread: Quick question from tester

Hey all, I'm currently testing on beta for BE and MCH, I play MCH on live. I dont have alot of experience in makin petsbut I do know about the what to put in which slot for the desired results. But what I don't know is whats a good creature to sample to get the highest stats for Mental and Psych. I know that malkloks are good for power and I also had good numbers from wallugas when I was a BE briefly with a Respec. If you Vets could post your ideas on what critters you got high stat samples from in various categories, but mainly I'm interested in cleverness,intellect and such that effect the Mental and Psych slots. Thanks in advance. PS I did some preliminary searching, hear and also checked SWGCreatures, but that doesnt show me anything like what I'm asking. Thanks again

For high-level wild creatures, Craggy Bolmas have pretty good intelligence. If you want 1000 intelligence, get high level missions for Giant Sand Beetles on Tat. So, one of these two in slot 3.
For endurance, you want Bull Malklocs rather than the regular Malklocs in slot 2.
Courage seems almost completely dependent on CL, so you could put Bull Malkloc DNA there too. But, since slot 4 has a big affect on intelligence, a CL 75 mission Giant Sand Beetle would be optimal (Wish I was CL 75 instead of CL 58).
If you want to emphasize health over damage, Uller Stoneclaw is great for slot 5, since that slot has a large affect on health and US has a great hardiness to fortitude ratio. Putting US in slot 1, though, will mess up your endurance to dexterity ratio.
Good luck!
Hiya,
Well, knowing what you CAN do and what you SHOULD do is different. BE is unusual in that you are crafting to a level and can overshoot. So, in order to get the max health and power, you can sacrifice mental, prowess (to some extent although this impacts on health as well), and psych.
You might want to go and see the recipe pages we have (Kao - please give sticky?) and try some of those. What would be really really good for testing is to get an experienced BE in there to test on the new planet's DNA ... however any BE testing you can do is much appreciated by all. I realize, however, you are bound by a NDA and can't really report weird things to us but you could report to 'them' !!!
Are any of our usual BE's in the BETA? I applied and did not get in, although my husband did. I am wondering if it is the computer or the person they are interested in ... if it is the computer, maybe I could offer to take over his for a while and do some BE testing myself?

To help me understand ...If I had DNA that was 1000 in each slot woult that make it's level higher, or is it it's CL level i got the DNA from that determines that?
If you managed to use DNA with 1000 in each slot out would get a pet with a cl in the 150 to 200 range or higher. you can normaly shoot for 2 stats in the 1000's at best to keep it below 70 and power shouldnt be one of them!. Power seems to have the bigest effect on CL health is next. As far as the CL of pet your making that all depends on how you mix up the DNA. we have asked over and over for the devs to make a cl monitor for us to no avail so its a feel thing for most of us. dont remember who made it but there is a BE calculator for pets out there, Dor or Kao have stickes to it i think. Good luck and hope it works out well for you.
Namesis made the tool and his post about it is in the stickies under BE tool i think. The calculations are in another post which probably should be linked to in one of my stickied postsbut isn't. One day I might get around to it. (Don't like to blow my own trumpet really).

Namesis, aye?
try a wild spawn CL 18 Giant Woort, I sample them the other night (Frieday) and got in the high 970's to 990's
