I just made it to Master BE a few days ago, and I have a few questions about sampling and creature crafting.

First of all, has anyone successfully sampled a Dune or Enraged Dune Kimogilla? I fail with every single attempt (about 30 - 40 attempts).

Also, when crafting the DNA Template, I have never been found out what the different DNA slot types are and how that affects the creature created (Physique, Prowess, etc.).

I have heard of a Mutant Rancor Cave on Dathomir (want to try and sample a Mutant Rancor afterall, ) But every site that I have been to does even mention this location. It was in a PC Gamer issue, and I went to the coordinates that were listed in PC Gamer, but there is nothing there (yes, yes, I realize that things change in a game like this after a review is written, but I figured that I would give it a try anway).

I have heard it both ways, so let me just ask the question point blank. After the recent patch, does the quality of Flora Food and Meat still make a difference in the creature? I assumed that it does not since because when crafting an item it usually lists the stats that make a difference in the item being crafted (e.g. 50% overall quality, 33% potential energy, etc.). Since the patch, it does not list this anymore, but I have heard that it still does make a difference when crafting the creature.

Also, does the type of meat or Flora Foods make any difference at all when crafting a creature? In other words, will using Carnivore meat create a better carnivore than using herbivore meat?

Thank you for your answers.
