Creature Handler Archive

Aramis109 same hapen to me as overt imperial taking on 30+ angry rebels... cept i had 3 GSP out... one warped into my datapad right at beginning (thx god),another took off with a chicken and i stayed with the 3rd... i was killed by 2 headshotts and mindshot made me bleed for 300+ mind... i watchedBarry die on me, powerless... when i finally loaded the cloning factoryBarry was gone forever... perma-dead...Hades had vitality damage andAirk which warped was safe. This made me quit SWG right away in disgust and anger!

Put durability on a pet which i am supposed to "love" and take care of is just a mental masturbation. If i wanted to play tamago-chi i got a dog in RL for it... I want to be the beast-master i used to be, i want to rend and tear, i want to be respected for what my profession could do, i want to be the MASTER CREATURE HANDLER i deserve to be!

LMAO, I think it's great how alot of you guys took offense to being called a Pokemon and then SOE comes out and calls you the same thing,that is beautiful, as far as your role you are not a combat class nor should be your title is Creature Handler. I mean do you see Siegfried and Roy out there kicking peoples ass with their tigers no or do you see trainers at Sea World in Irag fighting along side the trops,I don't think so. You are trainers who we be able to sell mounts and such and should not be alongside the pure combat classes as far as being called a combat class

Dude a lvl 50 pet won't even keep attacking anothe rplayer unless i put myself in serious harms way. Serious. You have to be within 40 clicks for the pet to even stay enganged and even then at time they don't.

You can't compare this to KD. Or being able to heal yourself or RUN OUT OF THE PETS AGGRO RANGE.

The pet isn't on par with another player even IF it constantly attacked which it doesn't.

Roll play and defense are other options for Handler........and everyone else lmao.

I still can't believe you said that mate.

and...... Hes gone.

His logic has been destroyed, so he will retreat and use it another time.

Stars-

the dude dont have nothin positive to post because...

Man I like Pokemon. FLame me all you will but trust me pet fight night was in the works. This is how I envisioned the class mate.

Trapsing all over many many worlds looking for rares to tame and show. But within 2 months of release everyone already knows every pet worth owning and the adventure factor is gone.

The wow factor is wearing off and the Raph's boot in my MCH's ass is getting a bit tiresome as well.

Again finding truly uniques rares that only a few others who had looked just as long and hard would have was my idea of what the CH was. It wasn't 3 Rancors or being leet. It was the pets.

It was pokemon.

Flame away :/

it's not a combat class.

now we've been officially told that it isn't.

perhaps since we can stop trying to balance it with a COMBAT profession, maybe we can make some progress in fixing the **edit** profession.

I find it rude to ask someone a question and then not respond to their answer.

I am going to assume that there is little to nothing planned for Master Creature Handlers.

What I am wondering is IF Raph doesn't know enough about our profession then who does?

the difference between the serious ch and the ones riding it to get another proffession is the serious ch's are out the door, nothing they can do to keep us at this point i think, well at least i know thats how I think.as long as he is creative designer there is nothing fun in the game, if they had put on the box designer dragon would be doin it i wouldnt have even signed up even if gods name was on the freakin box.He is a destroyer of games, a sadist, a monkey and shouldnt even be in the field..oh wait i feel as if i have just insulted monkeys..

Raph,

The caps on CHs are fine, most CHs will tell you that.

I absolutely AGREE: people should not, as MCHs alone, be able to solo considering the skill points they have left over after MCH.

Here is my issue and the issue you admittedly say you don't know much about:

At MCH, you have a 70 cap to max pet levels and +3 to active pets. What is the point to +3 to active pets with a 70 cap?! You can only have -=one=- 40+ CL creature out with a 70 cap which a NON-MCH can do anyway!

Your response to this shouldn't be to make any interesting or higher-CL creatures only call-able as a MCH (or kill their stats like you did with the gurreck) but rather to INCREASE the cap on MCH.

Here's my frustration: if pets aren't intended to tank like you seem to imply and with the regen rates like they are, do you envision all CHs being medics and/or all CHs being forced to team up with a medic?

And with the lack of babies (I spent all night yesterday looking for a arach baby of some sort on endor with ZERO luck), how can CHs consistently call new creatures if the HAM of the creature they are using now is all gone? I'm only at 4/4/1/3 in the CH tree so I don't have all the babies that were in abundance pre-patch. The babies that I do have would get rocked by any serious mob. A less-than challenging mob would give me next to nothing CH exp.

Because you nerf the class down to where the CH/Pistoleer master will be equal to a Pistoleer

---

This is a good point.

You can Master Rifle, and you can Master Pistol too, but you can't use both at the same time.

Give me a Creature Staff that takes up my weapon slot so that I can't use both at the same time... problem solved.

For making the master CH distinct, I'd say give Masters and only Masters access to the most powerful creatures in the game. I know that's kind of short and sweet, but once you guys get through the CH/BE creature balancing that you're doing, give us access to the biggies. To heck with the whole multiple creature thing. Let masters have Kimogila and the like and I'll be happy.

Holo I believe there are valid questions and answers to your own questions in thie thread. Please respond to them. I'm not demanding I am asking as a paying customer.

I myself asked you for just one thing you have given us with all this change to make us go Wow.. this is why I am staying with Creature Handler during all the changes. I don't mean future promises of this that never will be but what have you given us now?
