More stored pets...I have quite a few pets that date back from my novice days, that I would never use in combat today, but cannot bring myself to release...if there was some way to turn them into furniture like an untamed BE pet, I would accept that, have a couple of lounging narglatches and tusk cats around the house...take them out, /pet them to get them to lie down, and then "convert" them to non-combat status(ie remove the control device). They would then take "deed" form and could be moved as well.





I agree, we could ask about storage space (or even ask about Pluto9's Coraal idea), but instead of asking for more datapad space, which will make us look greedy since we already did get more space from the origional 16 to 22. We should ask about some kind of storage area like the coraal or do something like TsiyaAma's idea.

Most of the questions you listed have either been asked/answeredbefore orwill be "fixed with the Combat Rebalance".


If CH numbers really have dropped as much as a few people in this forum think, we could then use that to to get the Dev's to reassess current CH game system mechanics, which is what the point of the question would actually be.



Or, you guys could just ask TH one of the other questions (again) and hope he gives a different answer this time...

who gives a rat's patoot. i want an answer to question that actually has something to do with game-play as it concerns this profession. i couldn't care any less about how many FOTM's have quit our profession. they no longer matter.





Exactly, its a low priority question that could be asked of someone else instead and it'd be a waste of both our and THs time if we asked that.


hmm, since I saw that the pikemen correspondent made 3 questions (I think, TH said that they had 3 problems that they gave him), so we could maybe do that?...

I liked his answers to the weekly roundtable form last week better they are as followes














My GOD, the command of the english language that man has. Such brilliant answeres, so direct and concise.


Or maybe he finally followed old wisdom that says: "better to remain silent and be thought the fool, than open your mouth and remove all doubt"

Storage is a good question. It will be answered by "No new content will be considered for CH until after SWG:JTLS". But it would be nice to see a real answer on whether they are considering it. Everyone else can have 5 storage bots for a total of 200 extra items stored it seems that we should be able to store our most valuable assests somewhere.

Well,sure seems like a good ideathat weavoid a question that will give us the "combat rebalance" answer. Of the ideas I've seen posted so far I like (not in any particular order):


-Extra/alternative storage for pets. I might even start selling nonCH pets again.

-"Vehicles trivializing mounts" - well said, Barb! Make mounts a viable alternative to vehicles.

(And if mounts are made more attractive, then extra storage of some kind is a must, I think, so that we couldkeep a supply of mounts on hand to sell).

- Rare pets. I doubt that we're going to get all cl70 and under but the rares are too rare. Maybe at least add a few more rares that aren't impossible to find.

-BE vs. Taming: I'm still surprised that the devs didn't foresee the problems this would cause. I suppose we should be glad that they haven't done away with Taming altogether and force us to rely on BE for our pets. Now, there may beno good solution that wouldn't unfairly affect the BE profession.

I agree on that point Pluto9, but I don't feel that storage is exactly the biggest issue right now. Since we are compiling info on rare pets, we should ask a question related to that (forget what the question was that people wanted to ask about rares though) and give him the statsistics to go with it.

this leaves the status of small things like our bugs and special attacks not working is a huge one for us.


another is the pathing problems causing our pets to autostore.


another is the issue of vehicles trivializing mounts especially on adventure planets.





Aye. These three are my biggest issues at the moment. My only hope is thatwhen they release Hoth, it will be too cold to use vehicles lol

In looking back, I'm almost thinking our request (not really a question) should be the improvement of mounts vs vehicles. It's something existing in-game that would seem to be doable before publish um-teen.


Much as I'd like to see a question on autostore, I'm not sure the answer would be substantial. We know they know about it, and, ahem, are maybe working on it.


Storage is nice, but more involved. Save that for the next issue perhaps.

well seeing that TH never answered last weeks questions I guess this lasted a whole 2 weeks before he gave up.

So not much point to this now

Here is the only question that has any point to being asked:


"Can creature handlers expect any meaningful changes before the Correspondents Issues mini-publish at the end of the summer? If so, what are they?"


TH has been pretty clear that all development cycles are currently accounted for by other classes or the JTLS expansion. What's the point of asking a question when you already know what the answer will be? I hope my frustration isn't coming off as snide; it's just that TH told us last time that if you're not a smuggler, IDer, jedi, or a spaceship, sit back down and wait your turn.
