Hey all,

I'm going off line for a much needed vacation (work's wearing me out). I'll be gone starting tomorrow, 7/2/05, through 7/16/05.

Some other correspondents will be monitoring this forum in case something comes up.

Y'all have fun and I'll see you when I get back!

Sheesh. You really are a glutton for punishment. First merchant, then artisan? I don't think I could handle that much rejection from the devs...

Hope you had a good time! We all need a vacation now and then.
Elyssa kept everything in order while you were gone and we saw
little in changes from the devs for Artisan, almost not much of a
peep from devs at all really.


Somehow we've got to get through to these devs, Guru. I mean,
how can we get them to expand the role of Artisan without basically
effecting a supposed 'role' that novices are expected to stay.


I really think that the game would be better served with a variety of

schematics being made for useful advantages, consumable of course!


Having made the call for fireworks changes, many times, I'd bet

older veterans see my point in the lack of Artisan usefulness to

little functionality. I mean, fireworks are cool, but the interface the

devs made to use them is so painful that no one but the strongest

individuals will drudgingly live through the pain of loading the

numbing fireworks packages. If drag-n-drop was instituted I

guarantee more players would buy fireworks everyday!


Maybe, in time, we can find better uses for some of the items I've

espoused, but right now it's just a bunch of random useless items.


Having played the game for two years now, can we really say that

overall Artisan gameplay imbalanced anything by potentially giving

schematics for novice weapons and such to Artisans? I say no.

Taken the fact that we are so wrapped up in vehicles as our nirvana

and there's little else to provide a variety of daily interaction with the

greater SWG playerbase, I hope that the devs will look to make an

expansion of Artisan schematics for everyday use.

I hear ya, Cafa. I've gone to the well many times with suggestions for enhancement and so forth, much of it to little effect.

The most traction we'll get is with proposals that give the most benefit to the game. Things that would improve, not just the Artisan experience, but a larger game population.

And yes, I missed y'all.
