Quote from TH:

Having multiple faction soldiers is something that is planned. Balance is going to be tricky, but it is planned. For much of the first part of the week, Ill be focused on posting In Concept stuff and attended to the DE/DH issues...

So TH will consider giving people multiplefactional soldiersthat have over 5k ham (like stormtroopers), and is willing to work that out, but won't let ussell high-elite playersONE 3k-4k HAM droid based on certifications? What is the devs hangup on our cert system?

One thing you have to take into account is the faction pets are only usable in faction based PVE or PVP, so it is rather limiting.

Yeah, but faction-based PvE is at least as profitable as normal PvE, so I really don't see the difference. If you can balance faction-based PvE for multiple 5k HAM pets then you can do the same for normal PvE as well.

Limiting only to certain playstyles. I have been doing some stormtrooper missions lately because I've been board to tears. With the missions nerfs of the last patch...factional missions now pay about the same as all others I can get.

If all I am after is money, it is no limit at all.

Lets also not forget that 90% of the games content is factional, including the monthly storylines. Unless you need to harvest certain creatures, I would argue this limit is minor, but that's just my experience.

Additionally, what justifies 2 to 3 5k+ ham pets in factional stuff, but only a single 1k ham pet in non-factional stuff.

You are right, I am just saying that devs argument that a 3k pet is unbalancing to a player who has mastered 3 professions it totally circumvented by their willingness to allow 15k+ ham (total of pets) in factional situations.
