You guys got shafted with these new enhanced skill loots....They act like spices, they should have been craftable schems by smugglers....

We were just about born with a shaft. Im almost used to seeing stuff like this. Remember the Geo cave droping non craftable spice?

I hate them so very very much. I WANT AN ANSWER AS TO WHY THE HELL NOT WE ARE GETTING NO BREAKS, NO ATTENTION, NOT EVEN AN ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT THE DEVS CAN HEAR US. THEY IGNORE US, THE WONT EVEN BE STRAIGHT AND TELL US WE HAVE NOTHING COMING! THEY DONT COME IN HERE AND TALK AT ALL!

What about having Wes passing our message to the devs?Have those spices been discussed on C-forum, have the correspondants been consulted about them? Did we get the same answer that these were not Spices as we deservec but spices for everyone?
Maybe it's time to rewrite the state of the profession?
Novice : you can slice locked container you have to loot.
Underworld branch : total waste of skill points, replaced by Tatooine's Privateer.
Slicing : random, nerfed with the crate autopulling disabled.
Dirty Fighting : try to land a Low Blow with no skill mods, FD is more useful for Jedis than for smugglers.
Spices : replaced by chef revamps, buffs revamps and loots revamps.
Master : Badge of stupid patient.
Ok so if we are to follow their logics... next thing to be nerfed is Dirty Fighting, and that would mean they'll break FD i suppose.

Is there anywhere we can see exactly how these loot 'skill enhancements' work and what are they? All I've been able to find was some vague descriptions.

Mr Loot Whore loots corpse to get given the message "You have looted spice"
Mr Loot Whore: "Cool lets get me addicted to this smack"
System Message: "Sorry you are unable to use this item in it's base state"
Mr Loot Whore "Damn I wanna be uber duber, better hook up with da man."
Mr Loot Whore travels the galaxy to find the last remaining smuggler (all the others have left due to lack of smuggling" called 'da man'
Mr Loot Whore: "luk da man, I pawn this kreetle c. & he dropped this $%$%in' smack. ME ned u to fix me ^.
Da Man: "ugh? oh you want me to get you this spice to work"
Mr Loot Whore: ????? speck l33t 6u63
Da Man: "Look just give me it here, tradeokay.
Ten mintues late
Da Man: "No you need to openyour bag before opening the trade window. Oh for the love of god, tick accept then okay?"
Da Man eventualy gets his hands on the spice. (But here's were it get interesting.)
Da Man: I need to make a run to the refinery, of course there will be some bad bad people trying to stop me so I'm going to have to use my SMUGGLING skills to get past a few entanglements.
Mr Loot Whore: "duh???!!!1 giv me back ma s7uff b17ch!!!1!!!111!!76984763!!!11
Da Man: /sigh, brb, gotta 7ak3 ur loo7 70 outta spac3. Make g006 l007 4 u l337 6u63.
Mr Loot Whore: Y 616n't u say 5o.
Da Man: /sigh.
Da Man: Goes into space uses his smuggling skills to slip master undetected past the planetery blockade and travels to his contact at the imperial spice refining plant. (Yes the Empire refines spice at this time frame for the Empires use)
Da Man gets to his contact then then takes the base and refines it to a finsihed product. Dam MAn is spotted my storm troopers and runs to his ship. With Imperial Custom ships on Da Man's tail he trys to go into hyper space only to have his hyperdrive shot. Smuggler jumps out of the pilot seat Jimmy's (JTL smuggling skills)the hyper drive and sets his course again before jumping to light speed.
1 hour later
Da Man: "Here Mr Loot Whore got your spice."
Mr Loot Whore: "U3er!1! now1 can pwn NS!!11!!6865757!!11"
Da Man Trades with Mr Loot Whore who clicks on accept stright away, there's a pause as Da MAn does not accept trade.
Da Man: "hmm arn't you forgetting something? I charge a few of 100k for that run."
Mr Loot Whore: "*($% u man!11! Give me my sh1t!11!!! U didn't say that u'd chage me. !t'5 not lik3 it cost u sh17!11!!! b1tch!11!!!"
Da Man: /sigh
Da Man eventualy gets tips 2cr for the run and decides it's not worth his time and gives MR Loot Whore the damn spice.
Mr Loot Whore: "U3er!11! now I pwn you noob"
System Message: Mr Loot Whore wants to fight you.
Mr loot Whore takes spice to increase his HAM by +10 points
Da Man whips out his T21, accepts challenge and incaps Mr Loot Whore.
Da Man: "Never mess with a smuggler that's pissed off with 7 months or lies, nerfs and having to deal with stupid idiots and it's B I T C H, B I T C H!"
oh we could put hope that we don't have to craft this spice but smuggle it instead.

haha.. very funny.
what sucks about smuggler (i've been master smugg, tkm for about 6 monthsnow) is... it's really about roleplaying at this point. i mean slicing and FD are ok skills, but not worth the points. people who play smugglers are really in it for the RP. the problem is... none of the uber 1337 d00dz want to RP, so they need to add a reason for them to help us rp. the above posters 'story' is a good example.
slicing weapons and armor kinda does this, but it's short lived. now smuggling people through space... that would ROCK. have an imperial blockaid and no non-imperial can get to a certain sector w/out a smuggler. that would be cool.
as for the new loot. it's not that good... buffs are still better.

Honestly the more I see them do things that are redundant to smuggler (smuggling missions for privateer, looted stims, the fact that anyone can learn any language((with the exception of lekku, which is one thing smuggler has going for it)), the fact that imps are immune to the closest thing we have to smuggling skills), the more I think to myself that smuggler is going to disappear, that they're going to add "pirate" to the professions list, then make smuggling something everyone can do.
Of course an optimist would say that slicing is nerfed and all of these things are redunant because smugglers won't need them after the revamp cuz smuggler will be so awesome-keen, but then, I'm a pragmatist, not an optimist.

Something to keep in mind too, thoses stimms are already ballanced in view of the CU (Thunderheart said so). So to see the real effect they will have on our spices sell, we have to see how buffs, food, spices and thoses stimms will all relate together after the CU.
EnderUK: rflmao! Very good! Well, Underworld I give us all languages no?
