I can't seem to find a recent post on this, ie since this publish 21 took effect.
I haven't played Karou on the ground yet with her pets, but when I looked into my datapad, I noticed my 3 female narglatches were now plain old nothing special narglatches. No 7700+Hp, no high end dmg of 321, no 120+ defense value. They all have around 3300 Hp, 240 max dmg and 71 for their attack and defense value.
After seriously considering, I am now slowly dropping CH. The new system sounds great. It seems little more detailed then WoW, but for the most part IMO is WoW. I left WoW and came back to, yes BACK TO (1 year hiatus) SWG to play SWG, not WoW. I don't doubt the new system will in turn help CH out tremendously. It's just not for me. I would like to leave WoW where it is. heh.
but am I the only one to notice this change in the Elite pets?
I apologize if this thread is a repeat, but my searches returned NOTHING dated for yesterday or today. My bad if it is a repeat.

This is not news. I saw a post (I think from Ko) that stated SOE was intentionally removing elite pets because they wereout of balance. The female nargs were cited as a prime example.

Narglatches were far too powerful when used properly, so people complained and complained and they nerfed them, end of, best chance of winning with MCH in duels/pvp now is to get a big pet, rancor, graul mauler, crimson razor cat etc...my rancor has 8k health atm and hes doing great in duels.

The female Narlglatches were never even meant to be elite, it was an error in the code. How anyone could think a level 22 pet with the health of a level 70, and not at all rare even, was intended to be in the game is beyond me. And anyway, you can pretty much make your own "elite" pets now, if you so choose. Get a couple levels of Beastly Constitution, a level or two of the ability that raises attack, and you've got an elite type pet. It won't have 7k health probably if its level 22, but it will be no pushover.

Well since it was a RED name that told us they were broken a few publishes ago when they were nerfed down to their Publish 21 values perhaps we were overzelous in presuming that that RED name had a clue as to the intent of the DEVs.
