Do I have a "bubble"? hmm, didn't realize that. But anyhow, yea, annoying that it requires novice artisan. But we're better off then many at least. Try being something like a ranger or bounty hunter or something and wanting "luck" (which is a perfectly reasonable thing to want) or worse, "persuation". Got master medic? bah.
I hate to burst your bubble, but while BE crafting experience points are applied to that, as a master BE you can't unlock the skill tree.

Isn't that how we talk? Or is it balloons? I think mine is just a bubble. I didn't have the extraskill points requiredto make it into a balloon.
(As for the bubble comment, it was just lighthearted banter. The jab part was aimed at SOE for designing a system that seems tailor made for some professions but completely disjointed for others.)
I agree that we have it better than rangers. They have the xp that goes into senses, working for a Luck or Persuasion, either of which might be helpful to them, but they can't unlock the trees. At least some of our best enhancements are in the "Reflexes" tree, and anyone with combatant friends can unlock those.
I get far less failures and crit fails using my droid in the field than using all my good stuff in our Research Center City. In fact I went for months without getting a crit fail on pet assembly just using my droid. When we weren't a research center I didn't get many crit fails or fails. When we switched to research center I started getting fails and crits fairly often. The droid is a pre-patch R2. All my crafting stations and tools are maxed. I have yet to try p-cake in the city, and never had use for it out in the field. Has anyone else seen results like these? There was a thread about this very topic about a month or so ago. I don’t think we’ve made much in the way of progress since then,
As for being a bunnyhead……
Squalls = The ultimate bunny. Cute, dependable, and housebroken. Wonderful pets.
Durnis = Blind mutant freak things. A true abomination of nature and an affront to all good people everywhere.
Vir vir = What the heck? Are these really bunnies? At least they have eyes, and they’re big.
Gnort = Piglike bunny wannabe. Do these even belong on the bunnyhead list? I guess they make the same noise as a real bunny (Squall) so they may be ok as a kind of black sheep of the bunny tree.

Squall is an anagram for Squirrel, which is what these things are from the waist down. Squirrel+bunny=nature's perfect rabies vector
Durnis, exactly. Death to durnis.
Gnort != bunny, closer to a langlatch =)
