ok throughout the years i have been trying to sample dread horn. failing miserably. after 97 attempts yeah that's 97k organics i was almost gonna give up. i've talked to everyone that does bio engineering and they have told me that peerless can be sampled. so on the 98th attempt i finally hear a sound like i did it successfully. well as it turns out it gives me the message that this monster can't be sampled.

logic: if you can fail without the message usually it means you can sample it, or else it would give you that message and you wouldn't be able to sample it. <---true or untrue?

sample taken july 14, 16:45-17:06 just in case staff wants to check logs

if they look there is no failed sample but i did get that message.

thank you
anarchy

I tested this today. I was able to sample from dread horn for everything except mimic. I'm not sure about the weird message you received, and I've sent the info to Colibri to look into / educate us about when he has a chance.

thank you nyx. i looked into it. yeah just mimic doesn't work. :( wonder if all peerless is like that. but then you shouldn't be able to fail. like i have before. ah well. hopefully +Colibri will get to the bottom of it. ;) thank you again.
