The more I read on here, the more confused I am about our place in the Dev. Galaxy. While NancyJ does a wonderful job of stopping Devs fingers into working for us, we seem to have a class that has reached the limit of shortcomings. I mean really, WHat I have come to love as a Profession really needs to get in line with the rest of the game. For instance: Were the only class without skill tapes, costs the most SP, over a year later and still no Research data, Fish are difficult at best to get, Need Artisan for the quests, Messed up Pets, etc...

Im never gonna drop MBE but Im just amazed sometimes at what we put up with. What works, works well! Its just the little things I wish were fixed. I just wanna stop feeling like the left-out class. Not that being a loner is so bad...but...

I can assure there are quite a few professions that have a greater SP demand than ours. MBE uses 121, BH uses 121, Commando uses 169 and Combat Medic uses 169. So yeah, MBE uses more than the other crafting professions which use 92 SP but thats fine imo because it still leaves enough to either master a combat profession, entertainer profession, artisan profession, a scout profession etc etc. I admit we are deprived of these 'goodies' but you have to remember that our profession is so diverse and broad that really, we don't NEED this stuff.

Ahem... BH uses 169... used to be 217, but instead of fixing us, they just gave us more SP to spend in better professions. 124 is needed to hunt Jedi and that's almost half of your SP. Sorry to nit-pick.

But yeah, I'd have to agree with you Zad, BE is one of the more diverse professions. You don't just make pets, but you can make very useful tissues for clothing too. When I hunt Jedi, armor doesn't help so I need to rely on good clothing mods... which doesn't come cheap btw. The best creatures need to be BE'd, so the entire CH profession is sort of enslaved to you. What can a TKA do? He can hit stuff with his fists and that's pretty much the depth of his in-game experience. Not only is BE a farily interesting crafting profession, but it's also a good base for other templates like Tailor and CH. I guess that sort of comes with the Hybrid Prof territory.

I would like to see you guys get attachments and stuff, just so you could make cooler clothing for me.

6 months to be precise which is closer to a few than it is to a year

amendment to riginal post stomping = stopping. typos.

Kudos to all who stick this out for the love of the loner proffesion.
