Could be


There were some prepatch blurrgs made that are level 0 and can be used by anyone. If that is the case then 400k for such a pet would be a bargain. If you have any doubts ask the seller directly to see whats required to use.

BE's have had additional checks made to the CL of pets. When it is invoked, usually the pet comes out equivalent to an average wild pet. (Keep in mind that BE pets are supposed to be better.)

Yet things like these 10k freaks are not caught by the pet checks. The system happily lets them exist. Other pets that seem perfectly reasonable are declared invalid.

Unfotunately, the devs have so far refused to release information on what exactly a valid pet is. This leaves the BEs and us scratching our heads because we don't know what is bugged or not even if the pet seems reasonable.


As for these specific pets, I would recommend you not buying them unless you have money to burn. For anyone that has followed the CH changes, pets like this are obviously not meant to exist at that CL. I doubt you would be punished for using one, however its stats will eventually be altered.

It is also possible that the second you tame the pet, it will be detected as invalid and force you to up its CL or turn it into an average CL 10 pet.

The validity checks are done on taming the pet, not on creating it. So buyer beware. The BE has no way to know if it is valid or not. It should be invalid, but as noted above, the system is bugged.

This isn't the result of the CL 0/CL 1 exploit mentioned before, but you can rest assured that this pet will be getting nerfed. The most recent pet check addition oddly only calls non-CH pets with around 2k HAM invalid, while letting ones with 10k HAM exist. While we can't be sure what is and isn't going to be valid, you can pretty much rest assured that this one will not be.

Yes, hes right, the system checks it when tamed. Devs were asleep at the wheel again. You would think that they would design a system that would not assign the CL in the first place. The BE involved does not havea clue on what is valid. I made a CL 9 Kaadu with 2200 health and 10 kinetic. It was flagged by the system. It asked


"Do you want to correct the Level, or do you want to keep the level and change the stats. "


Well he was non CH so I said correct the stats. It changed the Kaadu to 900 ham and no resists. Good work Dev, now go back to sleep.

Master BE here - that pet will get nerfed by the pet checks as soon as you try and call it.

I've also made some 8k health ones that have been tamed & trained. So they might only last till the next patch, but they're usefull till then.

MBE here also, ive actually seen pets like this tamed after the last pub. For some reason the 2k HAM pets which are pretty much reasonable are getting killed and sent to 900 HAM while these seem to get by and stay with the same stats. I have made a pet similar to this and it is callable and useable, by me.

How much are those 10K HAM, 0/1 Blurggs worth?
