DNA sampling is the process by which bio engineer players use to obtain DNA Samples to use in crafting generic dna templates. The process involves the player getting within 15 meters of the creature and issuing the /sampleDNA ability. The player must remain within the 15 meter range of the creature for a period of 10 seconds until the sampling attempt is completed

Several events can occuring during a dna sampling attempt:
+
 
+
* Player succeeds in getting a dna sample and nothing happens.
+
* Player succeeds in getting a dna sample and the mob aggroes.
+
* Player succeeds in getting a dna sample and the mob dies. 
+
* Player fails to get a sample and nothing happens.
+
* Player fails to get a sample and the mob aggroes.
+
 
+
Note: Once an animal aggroes from dna sample the chance of it aggroing again is increased.
+
 
+
Note: If a creature dies while sampling, players CANNOT extract resources from it. The radial option is removed from slain sampled creatures.
+
 
+
NOte: If a player's inventory is full when attempting to sample, the sample event will always fail.

Players cannot sample from the following:

Whenever a player performs a DNA sample, the Creature being sampled performs a detection check on the player after the sample event concludes. This detection check is like that which is used normally to spot potential targets. The mob will produce the ? and ! flytext signifying that it has noticed the presence of the player and is threatened or becoming hostile. Sampling is treated by the mob A.I as an aggressive action taken against the creature, therefore if the player is spotted, the creature will become hostile.

The number of Sample attempts allowed per mob before it dies ranges from 1-6. The number varies according to the player's sampling skill thus a higher DNA harvesting skill will produce a higher chance of obtaining more samples.

The highest CL a MBE can sample is 75. The only creature of this level is Mutant Rancor.

'''DNA SAMPLING EXPERIENCE'''
+
 
+
 
+
Experience is obtained in two ways. The first is through crafting DNA templates using the dna samples.  Experience from this can be boosted by using practice exprience options.  The second method of gaining DNA sampling experience is sampling itself.  Experience is dependant on the CL of the mob that is harvested.  Each CL has a fixed amount of exp for a mob of that CL.

Ability Breakdown & Details

DNA sampling is the process by which bio engineer players use to obtain DNA Samples to use in crafting generic dna templates. The process involves the player getting within 15 meters of the creature and issuing the /sampleDNA ability. The player must remain within the 15 meter range of the creature for a period of 10 seconds until the sampling attempt is completed. The player is only allowed to sample once on the same creature during this period.

Players cannot sample from the following:

  • Adult Creatures in combat
  • Baby creatures
  • Humanoids
  • Dead Creatures
  • Inanimate objects
  • Pets

Targets that may be sampled include:

  • Adult Creatures
  • Pet Deeds
