On top of that, If you were NOT a MCH, your comments would be just as valid.



Anakin: Master, I think my lightsaber is getting dull. Its not doing nearly as much damage as it used to.
Obi-Wan: O.k. when we're done showing the youglings around the temple, we'll stop by the bazaar and you can buy a new crystal. I hope you've got a couple million credits saved up for this.
Anakin: WHAT?!!?? I don't have THAT kind of cash!
Obi-Wan: Well you could try sharpening it on these younglings. I've got a headache and all their questions are driving me NUTS!
Anakin: hmmm.... Sharpen my lightsaber on younglings...... hmmmmmm.....
Obi-Wan: uh, that was a joke Anakin. I'll spot you the cash for a new crystal THIS time, but next time you're on your own.

If you love the profession so much, and are MCH, why is this your very first post to the CH forums? That seems *strange*.

If I'm wrong then I apologize.







It is impossible to be a CL80 MBE. Ask the devs why that is. Nobody else knows any reason for it.

It is different, that's all. You purchase BE CL10 animals or you tame them from the wild. That hasn't changed. The difference is that instead of the animals sitting in your datapad for 3 or 4 days growing, you must use the animals in combat to mature them. For a non-CH animal, you'll mature your animals much faster than 3 or 4 days. You'll actually be able to sell more mounts at a faster pace.

If you learn some of the basic L1 abilities from other wild animals, by the time your CL10 animal is mature you should be able to teach it an ability or two. This only adds to the value of the mount.

I'm not sure why anyone would be unhappy about this sort of set up.

I'm happy with the changes, in theory. They work very well in WoW and are a lot of fun. The broken pet AI makes the use of animals in combat very frustrating for me, even with special abilities. I can't see me grinding out an entire datapad of pets using a broken AI.

Changes are good. Fixing existing bugs are better. Doing both is perfect. SWG is far from perfect at this point.






I am not unhappy about the new system per se - it's going to make being a novice ch even more fun as they tame and train and play with their new pets. But I am master for 2 years, got the pets I like to have - full datapad as ever. Now I have to kill some - but which ones? The one that's been my companion for over a year but is pretty useless since the CU? The 3 nargs that have been stalwart companions and all that stood between me and almost certain death so many times? At 3k of health they wont last long now, and neither will I. Or do I kill that extra varactyl? The couple of BE pets I had left that were reasonable? The spider or my wasteland Cu Pa? It's a hard thing they are doing to to us - if we need to tame so many pets just to learn things again, then they should give us more space - another 20 wouldn't go amiss. Or give us credit for BEING master and give us some xp to share between the pets we are likely to use the most so they can learn new things. I am almost despairing before I even start to relearn my craft - again.

I was not aware of that. In that case I take back what I said.

My alt is that template - you can only be cl 80 with 2 elite combat professions. BE is a crafter.

I am a Master BE and a MasterCHand with novice pistoleer the cl lvl is 58 it is notcl lvl 80.


It should be I agree but its not, I was hoping they may fix it in a patch but as of yet no joy.


I have put in reports about it but nothing is said or done.


Not eveyone enjoys posting on the forums, and do so when the need arises just because you do not see my posts does not mean to say I do not play the game and do not have the right to post.


The proffessions I cover if that were the case I would always be posting and frankly I have not got the time.


I am Master Artisan/Master Tailor/Master Architect/Master BE/Master CH/Master AS/Master DE/Master Chef/Master Doc and Master CM. Aswell as a GM.


All on 1 server providing an all round service.
