Thread: Inspiring the Creature Handlers

It would appear, from the latest patch notes, the developers do not want players to pull animals without a high risk of danger to the player and or the pet.I can see a developer saying "Ack, they are going to use this lure thing to pull singles. We can't have that!"
Tral I so seriously feal for you in my mind there is just no doubt about it the entertainers get hosed and continue to get hosed. Removeing BF kind of blows. I fealt the same way when they totally nerfed my medic with the CURB no means to self heal, and they totally destroyed my wound packs you know out of fun.
In response to your question there is really nothing you can actually do for CH that would be of any use. Our skills lie in our pets and not in the avatar. Simply put no increased mind or action or health will be of any great help. No increased skill will be of much help either. Simply because CH has no skill to speak of.
Here are some simple ideas though.
Terrain negotiation 2x multiplier this could be useful to Creature handlers seeing as we need to run away alot more now.
Maskscent 5x so we can evade these mobs that snap on us instantly.
Thats the best I can come up with anything else would be very much required or is easily done by food or drink or spice.
My advice is and this is not meant as a criticism. Ask for a skillpoint reduction to entertainer to 1 point. Right now the profession just aint worth squat. Seriously I see no reason why they did this to you. You guys did nothing to deserve this and I cannot see anyone too lazy to go to the cnet cantina. The dev trend for minimization continues. How long till everyone can harvest meat or till everyone can set up a camp or till everyone can use commando weapons.
How about a type of inspiration that helps MCH's calm creatures to either soothe or prevent agro attacks? I think this would mesh well and be consistent with abilities to tame wild and aggressive creatures. We are Creature Handlers after all.
I also like and wish to 2nd the idea of being able to mate creatures to get desired characteristics.
As usual in these forums, someone asks for some positive input and we wind up with a large number of childish I'm-going-to-hold-my-breath-until-my-brain-explodes-unless-you-satisify-my-personal-peeve-RIGHT-NOW types of posts. And of course, most of them have exactly ZERO real input.

IF you can fix anything PLZ make sure we get 3 to 5 hour inspirations. I know this sounds like a long time but fact is often if I am baby hunting I exceed these times.
Current inspirations last for 3 hours and they endure even when you're offline, so you have the remainder of the enhancement's time when you log back in the next time. I *expect* any new inspirations added will work in similar ways.
i think taming bonuses would be nice.
also bonuses to mask scent.
