Well now, looks like each one of those pets is not 'proper'. The typical be level 10 pet has a pathetically low amount of health. If you got one with 4k health and its level 10, keep quiet about it or it'll go poof one you when devs find out

But that damage range looks about right.

Now the other one, you know, with almost no health at all, that's pretty much about right for a level 10 but the damage is definately on the high side. So sort of best I can tell you is be happy when you can get them out and when you can't, just figure the game realizes something isn't right with them this time.

Dont know which BE's you've been going to but a 'typical' BE cl10 pet has around 4-10k HAM and 10-60% kinetic resists because the recipes used for these creatures are known to pass the validity checks.

Is that right ??, my best ever cl 10 had a ham of about 1800, anything over 2k and its either cl 11 or 12, i've had 3 - 4k ham that usually hit cl 16

all this with 0 - 10% resist and very low damage (under 70)

I'm having to use "yard trash" and experiment a little to get under the cl 10

You want vulnerabilities. The ideal CL 10 pet has resistance to only Kinetic. Using Corellian Butterfly Defenders in some of the slots help.

I've found that in borderline cases so little as 3% resistance to a Blast and Energy might push your pet above CL11.

Use voritor dasher DNA. You'll get a CL10 with 3 - 4K HAM pretty consistantly. If you use mult-generational DNA you can get even higher but the 3 - 4K HAM animals are very marketable. No real point in going higher except to say "hey look what I did."

By the way, broken implies the pet check worked properly in the past. It hasn't. This is the third attempt at a pet check. The first one made nearly everything invalid and was removed quickly. The second one was a repeat of the first. They gave up after the third attempt. When you send in a ticket regarding the pet check you'll get a response that says its working as intended. I tried and that's the response I received.In that light I have no qualms about making CL10 animals with 4K HAM.

I've had a viable business just making non-CH mounts with yardtrash DNA. Only recently have I started hearing reports of invalid pet checks when these are first called.

Literally, yard trash: flesh eating chubas and capper spineflaps from behind the Theed cantina will consistently give you a CL 2-5critter (depending on the skin), and even THESE fail the pet check sometimes. Sometimes I just don't get what SOE's trying to accomplish here.

Hi,

I have started down the route of BE with my main character who is also a CH. I created two level 10 bearded jax as an experiment to give to my non-ch ALT. One has apx 4K/2K/1K HAM but only 40-50 damage. The other has negligible HAM (800ish/90/80 lol) but 120-130 damage and stunning strike. Both show as level 10. I have found that on alternate logins my can and then cannot call the pets, i.e. first login: cannot call either pet and get dialogue re You have no chance... try trade-in, second login: Pets are called without any problem, third login: Can't call... rinse and repeat.

What is going on?

Any help would be appreciated as I don't want to start selling pets if this is going to happen all of the time!

Thanks,

John Haines
