When I left thegame was pokemon online(lol and now I see no pets around anymore)


WHat happened to CH? My pets still seem to function how they did before, can still tank almost anything if I keepthem healed while I blast away with my LLC...


but.. where did all teh CH go?


anyways I am 4/4/0/4 in CH, but am bout to raise to 4/4/4/4 and master it today. (i am BH also, and was told u no longer need master scout to be BH< so im getting points back from master+trapping+survival) seems they changed it around cuz I cant call my lvl 50 pets anymore with just 4/4/0/4, only have 48 pet lvls...




where did all teh CHers go? pets still seem to rock, what am I missing that happened?


when i log in and go to a spaceport, I feel like darth vader went and hunted down all teh CH, not the jedi... WHAT HAPPENED!? I been reading board but cant really find any info(maybe i am just looking in wrong places)




also, a few questions....


whats best babys for grinding now, need to get up my last bar... or is it better to just sit and tame and teach over and ov er(i just got 4/4/1/4 from just teaching a few b abies but it takes a while...)


secondly, from what i calculate, if i get to master CH, i have 70 pet levels? is that right? are there level 70 pets now or level 50 still cap? i have a lvl 50 rancor, lvl 50 kitty, and lvl 44 spider in my datapad... are there lvl 70 pets? or does that only go up that high so u can sick out 2 lvl 35, 3 lvl 23s?



and i overheard some ppl in game talking about bio engnieered pets being much better now, is that true? what would i have to pay for a top end pet? plz tell me its not a lot, saving up 300k just for some wookiee armor heh

err...I'll start.


Pets are good. However Player tank types in armor and buffs are _much_ better. Pet damage is pretty low so don't depend on them for that. As a BH you pretty much have the ability to apply the states that I use my pets for.


You can get CL 70 pets. BE's can make them and the Bull Rancor (super rare tamable) is CL 65.


The quickest xp:


If you are soloing, use the lowest level pet you can to hit the highest level mob you can. 1 hit gets you full CH xp on mob death. I was using a level 14 cat on enraged rancors for ~1500 xp.


If you want the fastest grind. Go the the Geo caves on Dath and just sic your pet on whatever geos the other people are fighting. You should never get aggro and the people shouldn't mind since you won't be getting loot rights anyways. This can get you ~2k per kill.



As for where all the CH's went....well. The true CH's are still around best I can tell. Those that like to "make the somewhat borked class work". I count myself among them. i know that I am more effective as a buffed/armored rifleman without my creatures than I am with them, but that does not keep me from using them because I enjoy that. However, everybody has realized that you will be a far more effective killer (CM/Swordsman/TKA) and/or get more tertiary utilitarian benefits (Ranger/Doctor/entertainer) than by keeping CH.


So, all the people that did not like the idea of CH enough have left, for greener but less amusing (IMO ) pastures.
