Thread: Can a Be help a guy out with some stupid questions ?
look like fun and looks like the crafting is less cookie cutter then with guns ,i have a few questions .
befor i geive away all my metal what recources do i need really ? what should i be stocking up on ( meat i know any thing else any special metals or radioactives ?)
second ,,, when you make a pet is it in deed form ? where does it go ,,in you data pad or in your inv? how many can you hold at a time ?I know its not like CH ther are no max # of pets things like that ,, just woundering ,,,
i have made some really good guns in my lifetime but i think its time to change . I was going to go ch (looked fun trying to tame stuff ) but after reading the BE forums i though i give it a try looks like a fun thing to do and looks likethe crafting part (i know all crafting exp is bugged somewhat ) is a bit more intresting then making guns .
thanks for you time guys and if you have any tips let me know .

Reasources: Meat (and lots of if) Flora food (about 2X the amount of meat)
Our stims take fiberplast so if you have a good quality suppliy of that hang on to it. A lot of tissues take flora structural, so if you have wood hang on to that.
Pet Deeds go in your invintory, I think they take up two spaces so with an inv of 100 you can carry 50 at once, more if you wear a back pack.
BE is a lot of fun, a looooooottttttt of work but fun. Welcome to the hardest profession in the game
Some of the high end tissues take specific resources like bone and wild meat and flowers and berries. Animal clonesuse any meat and any flora. The quality makes no difference there. The high end pet meds take known reactive gas as well as specific meat and flora. Check lairs for eggs and hoard them. Also if you ever run across milk beg borrow or steal it.
Mostly its meat and flora. DNA is a whole different issue as well.
thanks again for the time ,,, if you have any more tips let me know ,,, keep em coming
NeededReources. To master 90K meat, 200K flora. Approximatly. If you want to master it quickly I'd read through the holo guide at the top.
You will also want ABEC's, ACDRM's and ALS's made for you by a doctor with 10 experimentation points for all pet meds. Reources for pet meds are flora of various types (Mostly funug and flower), fiberplast from various places and unknown radioactives, fish meat and dathmorian insect meat.
Wood, flowers, meat and hide make up most of what we need for our other tissues. There are a couple of rare resources we need such as mollusc meat and milk.
As for inventory, get yourself 3 droids with 3 storage sompartments and at least 1 food/chem crafting station. This gives you 30 extra spaces in the field. Pet deeds only take one slot however it takes 5 DNA samples to make 1 pet deed so storing DNA samples is a large issue. While your leveling you'll probably just want to take each set of 5 you get and compact them down to a template. However once your a master you will want to hang onto samples for quite awhile. You frequently want to match level, quality with sample from critters from other planets. This can take awhile. On the positive side as possesions, DNA sample, templates and pet deeds can all be dropped in a wharehouse. The bad news is they will NOT stack. You cannot stick the DNA in stacks which means none of the cloning can be done in a factory.
As has been mentioned, welcome to BE one of the hardest crafter proffessions out there. Its probably the most labor intensive proffession. Only another BE can get DNA samples and only a Master can get the DNA samples you really want to be working with. None of the cloning system can be automated and it is both complicated and undocumented. You'll find many theories about how the new combination system works and as farb as I can tell most are wrong. (Not that I have a better model yet)
