Thread: So why are you still a BE?
I started at #6 but I think I've somehow gotten to #5. There was a guy who was looking for a BE to make him 50 jaxs for 25k. Well, he told me he hadn't been able to find a BE to accept his "exciting" offer (go figure). Well, I decided I'd do it...it was painful...it was for peanuts...and I somehowfinished the order in 2 runs using ice blasters and corellian fried ice cream. And I loved every crit failure on final assembly. Yes, I love this stuff. After the first10 I thought about stopping. But no... I had a mission... I said I woulddo it... I hadto have something to prove my insanity... Let me do more mindless runs for peanuts.
MUAHAAHAA....
Ok, so I told him I would probably never do something like that again and promptly left SWG...
#6 and going strong. Frankly, we're possibly the best profession in the game. We get something new and shiny in every patch; with pet stims, we can make money with relatively little effort (freeing us up to do other things for fun), and we have a wide variety of things we can do (tissues, stims, cloning) allowing us many different play styles within a single class.
Honestly, try being an armour crafter or a droid engineer for a while. We have it made in comparison.
3. Really patient - "The devs are working on our fixes, I'm sure they'll get around to actually implementing our fixes before I die of old age"
6. Actually enjoying it - This one's like a honeymoon - short and sweet. And usually you wonder what the hell you were thinking a few weeks later when the glow starts to wear off. If the glow doesn't wear off for you, don't complain - you're one of the lucky ones .
I am a combination of these three. One day I am optomistic and patient that things will get better. the next day I really enjoy playing a BE. I have to admit that it seemed to get better after I got CL IV.
I have a commando on another server so he helps me when I want to just blow something up!!!
