seems the lats week or so, everyday there are new threads asking how to get xp and how to master the quickest. that would seem to indicate a lot of new ch's have come aboard..wonder if this s due to the pet group advantage, or anticipation of the CU...i suppose it could be for the love of the profession, lol, but since all the newch's want to hit master as fast as humanly , or in the case of macros, binarily, possible, i would assume that is not the case..lol


would like to ask the new ch's why ch? and why do you need it so fast?

hehe, been wondering that myself Creature Handling is something best "experienced" naturally, not as quickly as humanly possible.

Oh, most certainly. CH, done to its maximum advantage, requres experience that is not measured in XP. You must learn how to manuipulate your pets to get the maximum advantage out of them. You need to learn patience, something that powergamers are notorious for not having.


A good example: I can take on a lot of mobs unbuffed and unarmored IF i utilize my pets to properly tank and draw aggro. It takes a long time to learn how to do this properly and by the numbers. As a result, while my gurreck is entertaining a bunch of monumenters, I can walk in among them at melee range and inflict maximum damage with LLC single 1 and only have to watch my bars for specials costs.


Then there's the art of fighting with pets in a group, one that you only learn by experiencing it.


Not to mention the finer points of taming creatures in the middle of a mob of aggresive relatives who take exception to your effortto kidnap the little dears.

Quite simply - content. I had always wanted to do it and finally got round to it while I was FS grinding. It is a superb break from grinding to achieve Jedi and I have no intentions of ever dropping it.


Pick any other prof and nerf it to heck and they would become non-existent. Its all about the content. Plus I have a feeling that we just might get some love in the CU.

You know you're a CH when you see a baby MDH surounded by adults of every type of Merek, and you maskscent, remove your weapon and charge in without hesitation. It's hard describe how your heart can race when you see that rare baby spawn in front of you, and the joy you feel when you get a sucessful tame.

Ive noticed an increase also it started after JTL was released and considering the holidays just past I would associate the increase to new blodd in the game.


all the old blood lol know better than to take ch for a fewk credits more lol


the new ch's here are like us when we first started the quest for creature mastery lol they love it for what it is not what it can do.

Completely agree. I think those that go for the quick grind will be in for a disappointment. I think they will probably not appreciate it for what it is, and switch to another field. I hope so. I kind of like being a rarity. I like pulling out creatures and getting awed comments, or questions. If we are overrun with CH's then the thrill will disappear to some extent.

So many reasons why I wanna be CH. One, as I said in another thread, I love it. It has to be one of the coolest professions in the whole game. I have always felt this, but with the way game mechanics work presently getting meat for my BE was much easier (for me at least) as a melee profession. Unlocking my extra toon thanks to jedi is now helping my achieve my BE/CH/Ranger dreams. I am hoping with the CU that CH will be viable proffesion again. I am excited and can't wait and having fun with my CH. Fun stuff.

I really miss being an MCH, it's just not as fun as it use to be. I loved taming and selling combat pets. Now no one even cares about the wild pets, so what's the point?

I hope they make this fun again. I will go MCH immediately if they do.
