Changes come directly from player feedback.
Thomas "Hanse" Eidson is in charge of the upcoming changes to Beast Masters in Game Update 5 for Star Wars Galaxies. Luckily he says the expertise system for this class is already very up to date, which allows him to focus on other issues for the class.
* Loyalty gain to become a best friend with a master is too slow.
* Eggs and enzymes are not labeled adequately for finding them on the bazaar.
* Beast reviving becomes interrupted by involuntary movement.
* Beasts cannot be stuffed.
* Beasts cannot be colorized.
* Beast Empathy, an expertise that increases beast happiness, is not working.
* Beast food must be used through the radial menu instead of simply double-clicking on it.
* Beasts move slower while walking up slopes and run slower than they should.
* Beast abilities are not evenly distributed across all beasts.
