I have only been master bio engineer for a few days but i have knowticed something odd to me. At master be I get more agro while sampling dna than I did sampling the same creatures at novice. An example of this is Snarfs. I sampled snarfs most of the way though the dna sampling tree. Seemed like probably every 10-20 samples I would be attacked and Incaped at novice level. Now at master im being attacked seems like ever 2-6 samples onsnarfs. To me this is sorta backwards. It would be like putting a novice snake milker and a master in a room to milk 20 snakes and the master biting the big one 2 snakes in. Has anyone else knowticed this at all?

I could be wrong but I think largely the problem you're seeing is that you can now take more samples from a creature before it dies - so there is more chance that it will aggro you.
At novice you can usually get 1 or 2 samples before the creautre keels over, but at master you can take 6 or 7 samples from the same creature which increases the chance of aggro a lot.

To Clarifiy-Sharnaff http://www.swgcreatures.com/detail.asp?creatureID=421. And I have been getting attacked more often at master BE than at novice. 1 to3 SAMPLES of any 1 creature it seems, at master I get agro. Compared to when I was below master I would get around 3-4 samples a creature and wasnt attacked until I had sampled several creatures.

I always thought the reason for this is the fact that you are getting higher quality samples, and the higher the quality the higher the chance the creature attacks. Personaly I would like to see the agro percent come down at master myself...ofcourse I would also like to see VHQ samples that are more often better than HQ ones. I just started really comparing them recently, and have noticed more often the HQ samples having better stats accept for agression.
