Well I am aware that there is a bug that will let you call the same pet multiple times. I have a non-ch friend that called his bantha, from the tool bar three times, becouse of lag, and had themrunning around with him for abouut 10 mins untill they started poofing on him, regardless of training, lvl of player etc. And this was a little diffentthan calling 6 faction pets and stacking them, since they stay in one place. I know there was an exploit pulling pets and grouping with overt players, but this is not that, since I , nor the cl1 were overt, nore did we group/degroup on more than one occasion.however I have never heard of being able to call two diffrent pets that exceed lvl70 at the same time. I have also heard the server boundry thing too, though I can asure you I never crossed a server boundry. I did use the stay command, and did move out about 1.5k, so I suppose that could be it.I assume it's just a freak of code, the whims of the CH gods, fickle as they are, and find it intresting.



To those who see the wonderful potential in the ubiquitis "GANK ofthe beasts" and pull out 6 lvl 69 raptors with fleetfoot 3 and myrid other skills, laughing with glee as youliterally RUN your mark/player/npc down and have its heart on a platter, be warrned that this very well could be a ( I'll jsut say it IS ) an exploit, and you not only may be banned, but you would really hurt the Ch community if you used this to take a player down, at a time when we are getting grief for things not of our control, I aks some prudence. if you must gank some one with 6 lvl 69 raptors, PLEASE make sure THEY are disliked by the entire SWG community ( I can think of a few..hehe) so when they cry nerf, they are discounted out of hand!!


NO seriously , please do not try to recreat this forthe purpose of ganking anyone, it looks bad for CH, its not very nice, and thatis one of the reasons we are in the state we ARE in now.

hey people

OK I am going to relate a short experience I ad the other day, and see what you think..

I was in moss easily, about to work on leveling my lv 69 raptor. a cl1 runs up and is just standing there. so I say in spatial " hello, can I help you?" he then goes into a long convo about how he wants a lizard, and can I teach him how to be aCh. I tell him that I can not, that he needs to at least get 4040 in scout. he then asks if i can give him a lizard. I ask him if he would mind grouping my pet, and I will go find him a lizard for free, as well as train it. he says sure, we do the song and dance, and I tell my raptor to staythere as I run off to find a "Lizard" of some type. I spend the next 10 mins running around looking for lizards, which I do not find, but do run across a lvl 8 boar, I think OK, well its not a lizard, but I am waisting time, I tame the baby and start heading back, at which point I see that the Cl 1 has been following me on foot! DohQ so I turn around and get ready to pul a an ab-1, when I see a lvl10 cu-pa. Hmm I think , this would be better, and can be mountable, so he has some thing to get around on, so I head over, and start taming, get the pet, and by then he shows up. I ell him , sorry no lizards, but a pretty nice mountable pet with a ranged attack, that i Will train as a tank * I know Know, not much of a tank at lvl10, but better than nothing) he says OK, and we head back, on foot. we are running along, pet in tow, and chat about how to be a ch. we crest the hill and there is kimi, straining to get at those juicy whomp rats.. WAIT A SEC! I stop in mid stride and say HUH?! in spatial. the Cl 1 says..what/..I look at the cupa look at kimi, back at cupa.. take my gloves and boots off and start counting. y+k-ab(g-r-k)=3+f-t=? I have alvl 69 pet pulled and waiting, as well as s alvl10 cupa standing 1 meter behind me...I start running, the cl and cupa dashing after. kimi looks at me, as she always does, like she told me not to drink that last bottle of sake, and why I wont let her get to work? " who's the little fur ball?" she looks atthe cupa. I look a them give the follow command and start walking away, they fall in, eying each other, the cl1 in tow, and then I here kimi's mental question


" Ne!, anno...moshi watakushi irun na no ni, nande hoka no lvl 10 pet moterudesuka. ne ne?!" which when translated from Japanese loosely means " Hey, if you have me called, a lvl69, how ar e you also calling a lvl10? **edit**!!!!"


I stopped thinking about them, got them grouped withe cl 1 and sent them to work. some time later the cupa is ready, kimi is just getting in stride, and I am thinking to my self..I am calling essentially lv 79 pets....whats going on? any ideas? I haven tried it again, haven't had time, but anyone tried just calling up to lvl 80 with out the neck-less yet?

now before everyone goes nuts, I have no idea if its a fluke, or the way I did it, or simply something psotToOW? BUT I swear that I was able to tame both a lv8 boar, as well as alvl10 cupa, WHILE having a lvl69 raptor out. the raptor was befriended to a cl1, who followed me aproximetly 1.5k from where i left my raptor. on returning, I was able to work both pets for more than 3 hrs. even after putting one away after 45mins.

'tis a bug, i had this ages ago.
I managed to pull out three CL60+ pets.
Its been /bug in game but they factor is the distance involved between calling the pets.
Put a distance between you and a pet and you can call another one even if this would exceed your control level.
It's not hugely practicle though unless you like waling vast distances around planets.
Still its a bug.

yes - this is an old bug (even before i started CH). i thought they fixed it long ago - but maybe old bugs come with new features.

i think it was related to server boundaries at that time. when u cross a server boundary u could call a second pet when your first pet stayed inside the former boundaries. it worked with the stay command (just tell your pet to stay - head out and call pet #2). it was of course a bookable offense ... ehm punishable exploit.
