Thread: Price check What would a grinding CH pay for 50 tameable pets?
This is the wife. I told the guy when he first asked that there were some on my vendor that were low level, basically crap/decor petsfor 250 each. He went and bought them all, then later on bugged me until i finally said ok, whatever...i'll do it until i get the last box of sampling. Right now i'm 2-3-4-3 on BE. I figured up earlier yesterday which would be more beneficial on xp, making pets or using my grind macro. In the time it takes me to make a pet, not counting getting the dna, i can run through my macro twice. I get 150 xp off the 'highest' pets I can make and in each run on my macro (using 3 tools) i get 315. To make a pet it takes 5 samples, make the dna template, then after that use the template, x amount of flora food and x amount of creature food (i've been using meat cause it's coming out of my ears lol). On average it takes me about 1-2 minutes to make a pet, compared to 30 seconds on my grind macro. At his level of CH for a bag of 50 he can average about 60k xp by the time he finishes the bag. Where as I only get about 7500 (the critters) + 2000 (the templates) in a long period of time. I've mastered CH and I know how 'boring' it can be at times and how much of a pain it is. In the time it took me to finally finish CHi had mastered pistoleer, medic, dr, fencer and tk. But that's because half the time i didn't pull out my pet. When i finally got to the last few thousand xp, i decided to hit dath and do rancors, craggy bolmas, basically anything in my path. Only took me about 1 hour (had trouble finding spawn surprisingly enough), but I finished it on Singing Mountain Clan NPC's (that's after i died in the nightsister cave about half way down). No buffs, but being master tk and using a lvl 46 pet with 60 kinetic resist it was quick. I told this guy the easiest way to do it was use a somewhat low level sturdy pet with high kinetic and hit a higher level planet. If he were to look hard enough he'd be able to find a BE pet that's level 30-40 with 50+ kinetic resists and 10k + ham and have it mastered in a couple days on Dath, Yavin or Endor. Getting on the average 1k + xp. There's no way I would've been able to keep my sanity just pulling pets out of a bag, training them, then destroying them. lol But, there's my input and side of it.
