Check out swgcreatures.com. One of the quicklinks on the left-hand side of the page will take you to their creature database. You can sort it descending by level or by armor type. Next to many of the creature names is a link to see a little DNA database for that creature. The only thing that seems to be missing from the DNA database are the resistances.

Good luck!

So I finish DNA sampling off pikets.. crown myself MBE, and head back to my house (has my crafting stations)with a backpack and inventoryfull of DNA.

I grab my salad bowl and start mixing up what looks good.. A little Physique here.. a little there.. Aggressiveness looks good, toss in some of that also (at this point I really have no clue what the various stats do, have a general idea but no definates).

Bust out a few Rancors, Gurrcats.. that big turtle.. and some other random creatures that look fun.

I have no idea if these creatures are "good", "poor" or "great". I'm having fun, nonetheless.

I toss them on my merchant for 125k each (the biggest creatures). No idea what they're worth, too lazy to do the math on the formula generators available and when I looked around for other BE Creature Vendors I didn't find any so I couldn't really compare pricing. I run across some players that are dragging big pets and I give away a few pets also.

Well, all my creatures have sold. I guess that's good.

I wasn't really into the market for making and selling creatures, was just something to do for fun. My intent behind the BE was to make the food stuff (additives?) for a Chef friend, but now that I have sold all the creatures I figured it might be fun to sell a whole bunch of different types.

The question I have is on the DNA you can sample. Is it like harvesting Ore, where you have to chase it all over the galaxy and it changes every few days ? So for example today I might get the perfect stats off a Mutant Rancor, but next week it might come from a Burnie ?

I'm just wondering if it's worth the trouble and headache to go to the high end planets and sample DNA or if I should just gather everything I need off Dant.

I've read so many messages on this forum and other sites my eyes have glazed over. Read the FAQ's and such.. didn't really see anything specific to the questions I asked. Apologies if I over looked them, and links would be appreciated.

Well, sampling a rancor for example will always give you a sample with the exact same resistances, the exact same spceials, and then the statistics it has for all the other stats will be bound by a range (like +- 10% or so). So this week and next week, a rancor will have the same resistances to kinetic, and armor, and whatever specials they have, but in a lair of rancors, there might be one with 10k HAM, another with 9.5k HAM, and another with 10.5K HAM, and similar differences in all their other statistics as well, and also the statistics will vary from sample to sample depending on the quality of the sample, so there is lots of variation that way. But from week to week, no, nothing changes like that.

As far as what planets to visit, that is up to you, but in general, the dna should roughly reflect the level of creature you are trying to make. So if someone wants a CL 10 pet, my guess is you'll be able to make that from stuff on any planet you happen to inhabit. But if somebody wants a CL 70 creature, it's unlikely that you'll find dna that is appropriate for that level of creature on say Corellia. Although I kinda miss the days that I was able to make a really mean rancor out of minor gubber, lol.
