Love CH, I'm no master any more but I still maintain cl50. I dropped a bit of it to get master BH and brought it right back up. I dropped more of it again to get Master Swordsman, and brought it right back up. I'm currently maxed on CH exp because I can't help it. CH exp comes too easy when you actually like pets and use them. If you don't like pets and are holo grinding, then CH exp is probably a chore. How sad for you.

The most rewarding professions in the game
I love hunting creatures and searching for rare spawns. No feeling in the game has ever matched when I found my first frenzied graul baby during the old days or when I finally found a Bull Rancor baby.
Also creature handling gives me a nice edge when need to change skills because my high lvl pets give me the opportunity to tackle even the deadliest creatures solo. Of course I am TK master now so now I can take down Ancient Bull Rancors solo with my pets.

I love CH, even though the XP come Slow.
I mostly use Tamed pets except for one who
i brought for its 60% Kinetic Resistence.
Ever been proud, that you Tamed a nice one?
I am...
I've been a MCH since one day before the Dec patch, and still love it. Sure, I'm for pressure to fix long time bugs, and new bugs introduced with recent patches, like everyone else. However I play nearly every day, and do not consider any current bugs "game breakers." I simply adapt and work around them for the time being.
Beyond the bugs (mostly), much of the other discontent in these forums seem to be related to assumptions of what a CH should be. Agreed, pets are mostly useless in PvP, and some assert they should not be. A valid opinion, and for a PvP'er i'm sure it's frustrating. I'm not a PvP'er, so can afford the luxery of not having to need a strong opinion that pets be PvP material. Two valid opinions, one of which is currently the state of the game. I have found some however, that take an opinion and present it (knowingly or not) as the Devine Law of the Universe, and a crime that thier opinion is not in effect, aka the state of the game. I have seen similar positions with the "my pet is the equivilent of a <insert elite fighter class>'s weapon", and should follow the same game mechanics. Aka, immediate access during combat etc. Again, many good and well constructed opinions on the topic, but some take the Devine Law approach. I.e., any well constructed opinion against said topic is automatically invalid, as the Universal Truth as already been presented, and if notrepresented in thestate of the game then the profession must be going the way of the Greeks. As already stated, I have observed this with *some*, and am not generalizing to the grand majority whom present varying opinions in a costructive way, or those that further that best interests of our profession (aka fix da' bugs!)
As you can tell from my large post totals (not!), I rarely post but enjoy the forums every other day on average. Also, am not attempting to flame anyone, but offering my opinion on some of the discord, rightly (and more importantly) or wrongly.

Been an MCH since before the December CH patch and still am. I love it and couldn't think of giving up my pets. Now, as far as the PvP goes, I gave up on it, until I master rifleman, and the combat balances take full hold. Learned very hard that a Defensive stacked, buffed, Master Rifleman is invincible. He held up 15 of my guildmates as we tried to defend our base and was untouchable when he was holding his rifle. He chewed through all of my level 50 pets like butter. Not worth the loss of vitality. And, this went on for 2 hours before I logged off.
But, I still love being MCH and the ability to solo and adventure on my very limited gaming time.
just get a TKM with stacked range defenses near him and he's toast lol
