OK I DON'T CARE MUCH FOR HOW THEY ARE INSTITUING THE NEW SYSTEM OF ADDING

ABILITIES TO OUR PETS BUT AS A FORMER RANGER WOULD SAY THERE IS MORE THAN

ONE WAY TO SKIN A CAT.


PROBLEM #1 MANY PEOPLE HAVE DATAPADS FULL OF PETS

SOLUTION: FIND OR CREATE CH TOONS THAT WILL BE WILLING TO HOLD A PET OR TWO

FOR YOU


THEN YOU HAVE ROOM FOR NEW TAMES PLUS WHO'S TO SAY CH'S CAN'T SWAP PETS TO

LEARN NEW ABILITIES??? CUTS DOWN ON HUNTING TIME AND EFFORT. WE ALREADY HAVE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS AS PILOTS SWAP PROGRAMS ALL THE TIME TO GREAT AFFECT.


IN FACT I'D SUGGEST PET SWAP MEETS EACH WEEKEND IN MAJOR CITIES OR AT A SPECIAL

CH RELATED POI AS A WAY TO IMPLIMENT THIS AND REINVIGORATE OUR PROFESSION



NUFF SAID

PS I REALIZE SOME CH'S WOULD BE RELUCTANT TO TRADE THEIR PRIZED PETS TO JUST ANYONE BUT I'VE FOUND 99-PERCENT OFTHOSE IN OUR PROFESSION TO BE VERY HONORABLE

PLUS I WOULD ONLY TRADE WITH THOSE I FELT VERY SECURE OF.

Just like to add a little tid bit. You don't have to be a full level CH to hold pets your not able to use. I had a few traded to me when i was barely above novice and couldn't use them.

I wouldn't be supprised if non-CH people could hold them too.

Eh, seems reasonable then :/. But what I don't understand is why anyone would compleatly fill a datapad with prized pets, you couldn't train anything for anyone, you can't get new pets, you'll never replace old ones if for instance your BE discovers a new super ultra cool formula with 10K health and 400 dmg, how do you have fun that way?

1. Elite pets are gone as they once were. So thats one non removeable gone. These pet types will be more available not less available so if you have an affinity for a name go for it and get another you should be able to now.


2. Most CHs are heavily reliant on 4 or 5 pets for the majority of use. You have ample storage and I am sure many have a few pets that only are in the datapad as a collectable item not as something used.


3.About the only real concern for CHs is the rare bio engineered legacy pets and how many of those do you really need?


The facts are simple the wilds you have now are neither uber or rare they are quite generic. They will be more easily replaced. Part of what made swg fun in the past was makeing hard choices. People will have to choose to do away with a few less used pets thats not too bad.


What would be bad is if your really good pets could not be trained in the new system period that would be bad.
