Thread: View from the street New BE experiences
It is nearly impossible to find training for BE on Chimeara right now(I have had to pay for all but DNA sample 1); obviously once alot of novices got up to dewbacks they gave up (Did they get a profit I wonder?). I am training BE as my second profession since I know it is broken and I don't want to go crazy with all the problems. The concept is so cool though, that I am hoping it gets worked out.
Anyway, all crafting classes I've tried don't return goodprofit untilyou get to 3rd lvl skills (compared to hunting or resource gathering). Please tell me there is SOME demand for our tissues and clones once you get to 2-3 skill blocks???
Since I don't grind my XP,it doesn't seem like BE is any harder than architect or armorsmith (my other 2 crafting masteries). I pity any BE that has crap for combat skills though. Aggroeing critters onYavin 4 to get good DNA can be a bitdangerous for a simple scientist. Seems odd that a scientist profession is as dangerous as CH. Now if I could just tie my sampling needle to my pet Wrix and have him AGGRo the big critters and play meat shield...or a droid for that...oh yeah, Droid Engineer is broke too. DAng.
The carrion spat sells off the bazaar as soon as you place them. Just be prepared for a /tell asking why its not a mount right away. There are some goofy animals we make that people buy every once in a while as well. Pet stim B's are popular and relatively easy to make. Tailors have recognized the benefit (and profits) they can get using our tissues intheir products. As you get experiment points you can make better tissues. Just beware of the great success which actually makes the stats go down.
Its the old cliche: We don't make the product. We make the product better. All that really means is someone else is getting rich off your labors ![]()
For me I don't care a whole lot about that. I didn't take BE to be a veterinarian or a seamstress. I wanted to have an army of eopie clones all named Pinky so we could take over the world.
Problem is, no one cares about my eopies except to grind tame, train, release. ![]()
I've never asked for a revamp of the clone line. I'd be thrilled just to be able to make some new animals and have the ones I make now work finally. Let me sample the kimo or remove it from my schematics.
