CH was my first mastered Elite, and This list brings a tear to my eye.

Because it means that 4 publishes, and 9 months after I dropped CH, the reasons I dropped CH still exist.

ï It's Dieschwarzung! ð

Excellent list of issues and requests, Vertexon. I especially like the way in which you worded them.

Vert,

as obviously nothing is happening still concerning our prof in game... What if we (you) try to convince the devs that the different damage types (example) for creatures could also help reduce the player tanking? I know we have discussed that before somewhere on this forum already. But as far as i can rememberthe damage type ideawas more ment to be a benefit for chs itself but not a benefit to the whole gameplay (like also having some pets do stun damage for example).

The point for me here is that we should try to pull as much players (percentage) into our issues as possible since nothing is done for ourselves, maybe we can bring up more ideas that are an improvement for a maximum number of non-chs as well?

my biggest concern has already been listed. remove pet calling timer while not in combat, i really don't see the point other then to force CH's to hunt alone most of the time (not many people want to wait for me to callmy pets before doing the mission). i can understand the timer while in combat but when not in combat there's really no point to it.

Tiggs, Pluto says thanks and when he is unbanned he will thank you personally. I can tell you that this goes a long way towards the CH community.

Noticing the list is nice but the question is what is going to be done about it?

Hi Tiggs,

Does unnoticed mean we will see somethings done?

Thanks for letting us know you are looking things over. Ummm canyou please let us know perspective date for CR cause if it is going to be months away then I am truly gone gone gone

....and then no matter how hard we get nerfed, we still keep CH because we are still some of the coolest characters on the game.

Nice touch Tiggs

My thoughts, if anyone cares...

Re: 1. Difficulty could vary depending upon design, from the need to publish new models for the 'baby', etc variants to the adult. need for datapad icons, etc (not that they all work perfectly at this point even).

2. my guess is this ties into what we've been told about CH being 'ahead of' the combat rebalance. If I was a prophet, I'd tell stories of the coming reduction in doc buff and armor effectiveness, and their effects upon tanking abilities amongst the population.

3. yup. enable usage of droid "datapads" with pets, workable solution.

8. flying is the only one that will make sense, and it'd compete to a degree with the BH jetpack. Suggest limited-use pet schematic.

11. You'll kill an already low BE pet demand with that change. A solution might be to really provide some more desirable traits (specials?) in each creature, but make only certain configurations of these traits available in the wild. Then let BE's combine them when CH's desire a particular configuration. This is sort of hinted at as the model of the current system, but the traits are either too interchangable in usefulness or too hard for the BE to recombine (finding an excellent CL 35 recipie and then being asked to reinvent the wheel just to change specials is a common request and rediculously difficult problem--maybe allow BE to choose specials somehow? non-standard crafting though). Short answer--no simple solution within current game design.

14. I have to disagree. I hate the delay too, but look at it this way. Pets are as close to weapons as they can be, with a great big difference--they are defensive as well as offensive. Instant calls mean that if you get a momentary break during a pvp fight (often happens to me during raids) you can call another pet and replentish your "party's" defensive power at no cost--something no other profession gets to do.

15, 25, 27, 28. sorry to spam, but YES YES YES

36. This is right after the rest of my needs, it would be a very very nice touch. suggest assuming the targetted object is the pet in question and go from there.

Sky, as part of the Smuggler Correspondant's farewell, Caylin hints that revamps are 2005. Thread is over in the smuggler forum.

While I'd like to continue as a correspondent as I enjoy working with the members of the various communities and the developers, the community needs an advocate that will be able to stick through till their revamp. As it seems that won't be till next year, I will not be able to fill that need for my community when it will most likely need that voice.

Acrod,

Nice post.

But are you aware that CH has no real defense bonus except against creatures. Our pets are the bonus. So lets change defense modifiers to read nil after ten seconds, which is about what the average pet lasts until any combat tef is gone for 30 seconds. Now that would make sense if you are going to compare things, compare them totally.

as a former Creature handler that loved this class I'm happy to see that the issues are getting dev attention, however, attention isn't enough. I was a CH for half a year till the holocron craze started and I love the profession. Hate to see it as useless as it is now =/

I really hope Creature Handler becomes valuable profession again, also hope they make Rancors eat people ie: Return of the Jedi a Rancor eats a gromorian or however you spell it.
