I don't have manage 4 yet so haven't been able to train a mount yet. However, wouldn't you be able to get say a regular bantha (cl15) train it as a mount, give it to a non ch who in turn takes it to a ch npc trainer who downgrades the pet to lvl 10?







No, because the system doesn't work that way for all creatures. It will exchange a natural CL 11-15 creature for another natural CL 10 or below creature. In the case of a cu pa, it will take the CL 11 cu pa and turn it into a kwi. The problem of course is thatthe kwi isnot a mountable creature.


I think a mounted CL 14 bantha turns into a mounted CL 10 lesser plains bol. But then you have a lesser plains bol you can ride around, not a bantha. And people want to ride banthas!


The program has no exact exchange. A CL 15 cowardly gurreck, handed in on the exchange program, turns the creature into a CL 10 lesser sludge panther, a cat, but not the wrix/gurreck model cat, because there is no CL 10 or below wrix/gurreck model cat in the game as a natural tame.

then why is there an In-Game message telling people to seek out CH's specifically for Banthas & Cu Pas?


shouldn't it be that if they were BE'd pets, they should be sent to the BEs, mentioning to get a BEd pet?

Well, the point here is, a CH MUST be involved in the aquisition of a mount, be it a natural critter or a BE created critter. Only Pack Masters and MCHs can train a creature as a mount.
