if i could have out 3 CL 70 pets at once... 15k HAM, AR1, 60%kin, 60% energy, ok resists ok the rest... that would be an I-WIN for PvE... i'd make a new toon and go MDoc and leave him in my house near the Krayt Graveyard... buff the pets and myself and off i go to look for dragons...


with the lack of really any end game material in the game, it would soon get very boring... and instead of seeing GM's everywhere all you would see would be BE gurrecks (non-argo skin so no taming clothes required)...


if they allowed this i'd go and hunt FG's till i had 4 of them... CH as a standalone profession is weak right now... but add it with a combat profession and its still strong... this would make CH way overpowered, it would still be weak for PvP... as the game stands right now... who knows what the combat balance will bring...

I can just see a "Wait for the Combat Revamp" and "Wait for the Smuggler Revamp" quote all rolled into one.

It would make us too powerful to have 3 lvl 70 pets out at once

Something needs to be done to make ch a more powerful profession and more appealing for pvp and in my oppinion the way to do that is to remove pet decay and make and pet over cl invulnerable to knock down.


That would go a long way to making ch a much better pvp profession

I've been playing SWG since last July and I'm still mystified by the fact that MCH cant control 3 lvl 70 pets at the same time. I understand how the current pet system works. A MCH can call out 3 pets whose pet lvl added together comes to a grand total of 70.


Anyone else thinks this stinks.


I worked my way up the skill tree to become MCH because I enjoyed the idea of having a mini army at hand whenever I needed help & no other players were near by. Having to use lesser pets that total up to lvl 70 in order to use them is a major annoyance. Why be a MCH if the only plus is getting a few more pet storage spaces & the abilty to train pet "transfer" command . There are other posts that go into great detail as to the fault with this profession atm.


I'm here to see anyone else in the CH profession thinks we should be able to call out 2 or 3 of any lvl pet so long we have the appopiate skills learned and are able to control said pet of correct lvl.


One other item I'm curious about.Not long agoI read a tidbit in SW Insider that we would be able to train pets as mounts. 2 of the mentioned pet we would be allowed to train as mounts would be Banthas & Rancors. With publish 7 coming out we will gain the ability to train Banthas & Cu'pas as mounts. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO RANCOR MOUNTS? One of the reasonsI became a CHwas tohave my own Rancor creature mount.


Anyone else have any comments about our inabilty to use 3 of our better pets at the same time & not having any rancor mounts?

When the game first came out we could have 3 huge pets out but people complained that we were too powerfull & it was changed. Truthfully I don't think were were ever supposed to have that many powerfull pets out anyway, it was just a bug.


& when the mounts were coming out, SOE has never, ever promised us that we would ever get a rancor mount. People siad that in the books, NightSisters rode on Rancors & that they couldn't wait to tame one to ride, but now one at SOE ever said that, it was wishfull thinking on our side, not anywhere else.

I think they should change it back now. Becasue a TKA can kill a BE super rancor and not have a scratch on him. having the 3 pets would at least make us good for Pvp. espesially with the autostore bug the devs gave us....

Maybe when they "balance" the pure combat professions down a bit, we might get some love to our pets power.... but then again, they may have "set the bar" with our pets and will adjust the other professions to that.


If you start feeling like our pets are too weak, read up on the new "battle" droids.... I will take my weakest pet over one of those anyday if they are as bad as I am reading.
