Creature Handler Archive

yea I had pets take out the turrents myself, need ranged pets for the ones inside, pets can walk right threw the sheild. and for tanking a single sith theyr ok, 2 siths it is another story, 3 or more siths forget it your pets will be lunch in less than 30 seconds.

there are a few guides in the fs forum that might help you, seems the tactic to have 1 person lead the sith to the back of the camp works best, thats what I did.

good luck.

Well now I dont actually need to unlock that nice hard phase 3 melee thing but I really fancied that mind buff crystal so I err scouted out a few camps and me and my tk best friend and my team of pets headed off to the wilds of Dathomir last night.

I found out an interesting little bit of info, I havent seen it mentioned but pets can take out the turret inside the fort before the shield is down. Discovered this by accident when driving past and the turrets aggroed me and my spider ran in through the shield and ate all three turrets bless him.

So we parked ourselves up on a hill overlooking the fort and I send my spider in to take out the turrets he goes right through the fort wall, they must have left a pet sized hole in it somewhere lol.

Then me and George, my valiant Toxic Merek Battlelord head down to take the shield down. He is nerveless Im chewing Valium, you have to remember giggle, I've never tried anything like this before, just read a bit of advice on the boards. But me and the boys will try anything onceor several times even. I remove the shield and fire at the gate, get about half way down when the Sith spawn, gulp, hit the antennae then go back to the gate, setting George on it too in case I go down. I wait til almostdead then run for it and make it to the slopes before being incapped, far enough away that they leave me phew.

On coming round I bolt back up the mountain to my friend and we sit and watch a bit, before trying out the 'I lure one up' tactics with my rifle, so I get out one of my Screechers and head down, mind hit a Sith then run back. Now alas this is where I went wrong for I obviously hadnt run back far enough and while we get one, two of his chums follow him eventually. I poison them with Hermes, and he does take a fair chunk out of their ham bars bless him. We killed two of them but the third one at once was a bit much alas and we died. Sniff.

We did try a couple more times, but the first time was the closest.Second time we got jumped by a band of Sith behind us and the third time we tried the I die tactics to try spawning the Commander without having to kill the 5 Sith, but errthat failed. But we did find the pets genuinely useful. And if I hadnt aggroed more than that one Sith I think we stood a good chance of succeeding that first time. That was my fault, just lack of experience telling there, but being able to take the turrets out was a help particularly that inside one, I couldnt get in range of it with the rifle up on the mountain to shoot it, and being able to hit those Sith with Screecher disease was too. We're going back hopefully with me not messing it up this time. But we have our tactics, lure them up, mind hit, Screecher hit, my friend beats them to a pulp.

We had a really fun evening trying out tactics, it was a laugh and I wasnt expecting that with no experience we would do as well as we did really. So I was pleasantly surprised, learnt a lot and am raring to go back for more, I will succeed, pets and all

I'll let you knowhow me and the boysget on
