Kro,
Did You Know about This?
How does everyone else feel about it?
I have not logged on yet as I am working,and got a message from a friend telling me about it,came on,read the patch notes and got upset.
Have they nerfed us again? Is it to the point where I need to give up CH? Because if so its time to leave SWG.
CU They took all our specials away. Patch 22 they gave us back some of what they took away,as long as we are willing to re-grind our Profession all over again repeatedly, now they have taken Elites which gives us no reason to be willing to grind all that xp over and over again.
If they do not want CH in the Game, Why don't they just say so ,respec us all into what they want us to play and be done with it.
Heck Why noy just respec everyone into BH and Jedi and make it SWG BH versus Jedi. That seems to be the direction the game is going.All the rest of the Proffessions have been made almost un-playable.And Before anyone starts, I was a CH/BH before CU and am FS so its not that I am beinganti-jedi.
I am sick of seeing not only the proffession I joined SWG to play nerfed but every other Non-shootem up Profession nerfed as well.
Does Development know how many veteran players feel this way? Do they care?
And Repair Kits, Its asinine when finding crafters is difficult these days, Oh yeah they are loot/mined so you have to fight alot to loot/mine enough of them to keep your stuff running. Got it! And if you are not a primarily combat profile,Oh well become one or leave.
Ok I might do that. BTW way I am Mayor of a Player city with 151 citizens and co-founder of a Guild of 42 and Have been setting noobs up with houses and equipment since my second month of play,so I am just another disgruntled player. My leaving really won't matter.

The Elite pets were removed when the new creature specials system went in with Publish 21.
It's a duplicate, left-over patch note, for whatever reason they seem to continually repeat previous fix notes in future note listings.
You should see no change to any of your pets, Elites are already long-gone.

Yes and No... That.... is an obvious one and I was very happy to point that out.

Kro,
Ok any idea when the rest of our problems will be fixed?L Lol and BTW sorry our first interaction was of a negative kind, You are doing a great job!
BTW maybe you can answer a question for me, One of my friends gave up CH and gave me 2 of his BE pets,(yes another one left)When I try to call them, I get the invalid stats message.
When I try to adjust the stats I get a message on one that I cannot adjust that pets stats and on the other I get an error Message. They are very nice pets and I would like to use them, they were favorites of his and I promised to take care of them,I do not want to give them up and am afraid to try to adjust their level because we all know what happens then. Any Advice?

when they say elite pets they dont mean things like uber be'd pets which by the way you have phrased your questiong sounds liek you think they mean, what they mean are pets that are tamed from the wild from babies that have the elite tag. Some creatures are classed as elite cratures and are basically the same creature as their counterparts but with slightly boosted stats, these are identified by their name, it should have a tag like this ... < name > or a double elite which has a name tag like this << name >>, these are the pets we can no longer tame, any pets already tamed like the ever popular female narglatch wll have thir stats reduced to the same levels as their normal counterparts.

1. /agree
2. touche and wondered that as well
3. I am glad I am not the only one seeing this. If your not a Jedi or BH your stage time is limited to be taken seriously. I also am an Old mch who is also Force Sensitive. I had 4 boxes full and the working on the 5th box which I had just unlocked. When I decided I wanted to be what I loved to play, not what the game was forcing me to do anymore. So, I dropped all force sensitiveboxes except the one Force Sensitivemain box, andwent back to MCH/MR and I am loving my choice.
I never joined SWG to become a flashlight carrying jedi... I will leave that to the luke/darth/obi-wannabe's out there. I joined to be a hunter, pet tamer, survivalist in the wilds. I used to love taking days, even weeks just going out, into the wilds of corellia. Camping when I had to log out safely. And starting up the next day where I left off. Out in the boondocks. I will say that Kashykk ETYYY hunters quest is very nice. It's got a big area to explore on your 'MOUNT' not a vehicle. Which takes time, but thats what many of us CH love to do.
4. /nod sadly
5. There is the answer, 'do they care'. Marketing says cater to jedi, we will get more new players. Development 'MIGHT say' what about the current players? Reply, what about them. We got the money when they bought the game. They are hooked and will keep playing no matter what happens. Oh we might lose 10-20% but we can live with that loss. Because we will gain 30% more new players who think they can play a jedi right away. (picture Doctor Evil here laughing)
6. I have a crafter and being in space for hours to get only 1550 units of a resource (would use a Y8 mining vessal, but oh, the quest is bugged so don't have one yet and its 5000 storage space. SO, its up for 1550 units, one or two hours later land, unload and launch again. Oh and it takes about over 1500 units per barc/av21 repair kits so picture how long a crafter has to spend in space and its 2 types of asteroids to create a kit. Rafael is alive and well as a crafter on Corbantis server, Naboo Planet. But, wait, lately he is in space hunting down asteroids since the new patch. So he isn't crafting anything right now.
I feel your pain, and know many other old timers like us have a bad taste in the mouth. They used to call it pokemon wars and the players cried nerf ch, they did. Not with a nerf bat, but with a entire nerf forest.
Now we cannot even tame a cl10 pet for any non-ch thanks to the devs smart idea of size pets by xp. You tame a cl 10 and its about the height of your waist, well for a tall person.
I feel your pain, but no one listens to a Creature Handler any more. Even though there are many more of us out there just nerfed like yoda into hiding.
There are 2 posts in the forum about giving us a bone... FLYING MOUNTS... might just give CH a bone it can use for a change.
I am Galpar Asipien of Corbantis Server, I am a Master Creature Handler and proud of it. And that's why I rant about something that I love.

Thanks, I was just curious. My first toon is a MCH on gorath, but I havent played her much since the CU wiped out most of my pets.
