Thread: Creature Handler State of the Profession (January 2004)
/agree
I have to say that pets have become quite useless after the patch .
there resists are way to lowi think it should be brought back to the old levels again and maybe even a little bit higher because pets suck even harder now its even almost impossible to do a high level mission with a pet and i am not even going to begin about how bad they suck in pvp.

I would like to complain about the last change. I'm not calling it a patch, because patches fix things.
Most of the pets that I have are pretty much worthless post-change. They have no kinetic resistance and little armor if any and does not last long enough to finish out a single mission. And I know that you pointed out this was a big deal already. In my eyes, I would say, "IT'S THE ONLY DEAL". Without kinetic resistance, PVE is DPVE. "Dead Player vs. Everything. Pets are the MCH's weapons, well toys now.
People pointed out that this is a combat profession. It's, However, the only combat profession "NOW!" that can't sustain it self. The CH, for lack of a better word, is a crap profession. I've been enjoying the CH for 5 months. I've been able to solo missions, explorer, survey, and do many other things that are not fun in a groups. I'm a medic and an artisan as well and the pets would protect me while looking for locations to plant harvesters, forage for medical, and enjoy the game. If the pet is going to vanish while I'm being attacked what good is it? Blah blah blah. It suck's. I now must choose to drop the MCH or Drop the other professions and choose a different combat profession. I'm hoping that the developers pull there head out of there @$$ and stop acting on second hand comments from players with different professions. If you're not a CH then you don't know what it's about.
The change was to control dabbling, was it not? The Greater Sludge Panthers once were level 23. Now they are level 25, with no armor and hardly any resistance to kinetic attacks. They upped the level eliminating 3 out and lower the stats limiting the effectiveness. If the patch was to eliminate the dabblers, this is the first indication that the statement made was to blow smoke up a Rancor's @$$. Almost all the changes made effected the Masters more than the dabblers.
I'm rambling now, thank you for reading but one more thing.
Even the changes suggested in the header post are worthless. I don't care about stables or special attacks. If the stupid pet doesn’t help me out then why have more space for more worthless pets? Why have more babies spawn if they are all going to suck anyway?
Well youve done a good job on the whole of the problem. I myself have canceld my account and quit the game because of this last nerf("not a patch ..those fix the game"). I went from a great class to a class thats suppose to be a elite master class...the reason for costing do many skill points , to a class that cant even solo any more or PVP wich is supposed to be one of the main things about this game. The GCW is a joke right now i was beat down by a combat medic and a half wast to master marksmen. LOL they had a great time at that took out my best pets with np all they had to do was use DOT's and hop on there speeders and run around in circles on my pets till they died then they just killed me cause I cant go in on commando or BH because of to litle points. And now its cost me my credits to get stims and BE new bull$hi7 pets and with out any one wanted mounts or pets i have no cash flow and ive been forced to do some lame deliver missions because my pets cant take on the nest for most missions I get because they are wimps...lol I lost 2 maulers to one in the wild the thing ripped them apart like they where babys. Any way this class has just be totaly screw with the new up coming Battle Droids wich im sure will not have and low resist and weak hams ...
So now im a X-MCH that uses a speeder..cause my mounts only good for those lonly cold nights in the hills when i miss a women and slow as hell. And now ill be a gay X-MCH with a bunch of gay droids to hunt with cause my pets are to **edit** lame to fight.
Well SOE you can kiss my arse and go screw your self I am done and ill not bore you any more with my wines because I spent the last 6 months on your dumb asses...and the 50 on the game.
Once bitten k my fault
Twice bitten k im any idoit
Thrice bitten GO TO HELL
Good bye to all those like me that injoyed this profession and had a blast I wish you all the best ...AndI would have settle with a nerf but this one is just way to much. I to understood that the class was unbalance before but i can only handle so much in the back side with out lube and this has just rubbed me to hard the wrong way.

lol I think the In Concept section should be named Incompetence instead. Honestly, they must have a sizeable work for to be able to crank out new content (DH tree, etc.), rebalance the game AND fix bugs. Sounds to me like they're shirking on their real duties, which should be fixing the current problems instead of adding new ones. Since it's all falling on deaf ears and the devs are going to do what they **edit** well want then we're all just flapping our gums for no reason but to flatter ourselves into thinking we're making a difference.
