I love being a BE, as I was grinding through skills it was the one that I looked forward to doing and its one that I took my char back to when I was done. It seems to me to be one of the only crafting skills that has science to the crafting and not just a cookie cutter skill.

But I am also frustrated with the amount of failures that I get while sampling. Last night I failed 15 times in a row while trying to get samples of a mutant rancor. I understand that they are tough and it should be hard to get a sample of one but come on the failure rate even at Master is a bit insane. To add a little salt into the wound after working for about 2 hours to get a few samples. I go back home excited to try my hand at making a nice pet with my 6 samples. I toss 3 of them into the mix of some other and hit the button. BOOM failure so I just lost the 3 samples. Talk about being ready to throw something, what a waste of time. I logged off before I did something I might regret.

I know this might piss some people off but I would have no problem with longer sampling times to have a higher rate of non failures. Or perhaps some sort of time to sample vrs the level of the critter. Not sure but I know that the present system is some what frustrating concidering how hard it is to actually sell the pets that we make since they nerfed CH so much.
