Let's get an idea of what people think. Rare tamables as is, not factoring any possible future changes such as a Combat Revamp and all of that. The rare tameables as rated by SWG Creatures, Arachne Widow, Wild Dune Boar, Great Plains Stalker, Bull Rancor, Malignant Squill, Mantigrue Screecher, Merek Deaths Head, Blurrg, Frenzied Graul (currently not spawning, but is labeled as tameable), Gurreck, Gaping Spider Queen, Prowling Gurreck, Rhoa Kwi Packleader, Swamp Stalker.
Rare tameables. What's your opinion?
Remember to take into account 2 things
1: You can easily spend upwards of 8 months and not find even one of these rare tameables.
2: This is about the only thing that CH has as far as "content" goes.
A: Up thier stats and keep the current rarity as is.
B: Keep thier stats as is and make them unrare.
C: I have looked/been looking and I am frustrated and not happy with the stats, make them unrare.
D: I have looked/been looking and I am ok with the rarity and the stats.
E: I have looked/been looking and I am ok with the rarity, just not the stats.
F: I have looked/been looking and I am ok with the stats, just not the rarity.
(sorry for so many options. I added as many as I could think of to be as clear as possible)
G: I have been looking and I am frusterated.
H: I just don't care.

C. and G
the stats arent anything great on most very rare and also the ultra rare are too frustrating to bother with after a month or 2 people give up.
evryones entitled to theyr opinion but half the fun of CH is taming your own pets time to make the bull rancors and other ultra rares as rare a a prowling gurrek at least after a month you should be able to find those. and since CH is pretty much ignored by the devs (as are other proffesions) it would be an easy bone to throw us, my opinion unless it lays eggs there shuld be babies of evrything all the time tamable or not.

A, something that hard to find should be uber and 1337.A great plains stalker should be something to be feared...

Aakhperkare, you included the Bull Rancor and Great Plains Stalker as rare. They are not. Those two beasts are in another category.
Trophy Pet
This category, " Trophy ", means that the chances of bagging one of these is slim to none. It can be done and has been done but it's like winning the lottery.
X: Track the effort being made per individual. If the effort equals the status of the rare or trophy pet then by george let us have it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look what you got to do to get the flyable personal Jet Pack in this game, that takes a monumental effort to attain. The Jet Pack isn't given to you by " dumb luck " like the trophy pets or rares for that matter.
I saw a Frenzied Graul on Dantooine last week by the way, an adult. I looked at it for awhile and thought to myself, " I thought these things were extinct ". I searched for a lair, I killed the adult but nothing came after that.

Really, I couldn't decide which way to go with this one. On the one hand, you want pets that are so hard to get to have good stats. On the other hand, it shouldn't be insanely hard to get the best pets, and so maybe the rares shouldn't be the best wild pets in the game. I do like the idea of the rares, and I would like to see them keep rares. So I would rather it remain unchanged than let them tweak the system and fubar it the way they are about to fubar merchants and anything else they seem to touch.
