Not sure if this has been posted by anyone else or if it has just come about since Publish 18 BUT last night I had my quest item Varactyll (level 65) and then a level 69 rancour out too - seems that the Varactyll does not count towards the total levels out!

could be the mount storing bug.
when i try to store my mount (eg. my varactyl) while mounted (using the toolbar icon), it stays out - but the game thinks i stored it. cause when i then hit the toolbar again (to store it), i call a second instance of it instead.
i always store both versions immediatly - i ve heard from someone, that if u are unlucky u can bug the whole creature with this - making it unstoreable.

Mine was storing fine - I thought it might be bacause it was a quest item for some reason it was not recognising it as a pet? Who can tell - and I am sure it won't last long before they change it - but last night it was fun!

I'm a MBH/MCH with CM4000. I normally just hunt npc's for the loot. That and the fact the missions are quicker. Anyway, I chose to try out my pets on a jedi mission for a change and discovered a neat trick. I was using the "strength in numbers" approach with my 3 lvl23 kwi. During the battle my target would force run and pull away enough to cloak. I lost my target but apparently my pets didn't because they kept chasing him. He would uncloak and we would battle some more then run/cloak and here my pets went again after him. After the fight he told me the pets wore down his force like nobody's business. Now i did have to heal up the pets from time to time, between my attacks, but at best with 3 only one would get incapped at a time and i could get that one up in time to not fall back in the battle. Sure made me realize that my template is stronger than i gave it credit for against jedi in the dark times, (the days post CU nerf). Don't get me wrong, the CU has it's good points, but most of my pets took a major hit and it's like tossing a spongy football at someone. I mean i can go hunt lvl 80 bols with my lvl 70 rancor and watch it go down to a bol. C'mon, it's a rancor, there has to be some species bonuses in there. But that is a topic for the CH boards. Anyway, i just wanted to brag on my Bounty Hunting pets, they served me well.

Most likely the jedi in particular had force armour running, and so each hit will sap hit force, as he's being hit by 4 attackers he will lose it quite fast. Your template works pretty well against enhancers butI wouldn't hold your breath against a defender

Nah, he said the jedi was using cloak - 3 animals following and the player will drain force at a rate of 125 every 10 secs.

Yep, The more people around a cloaked jedi, the more force that is used.
