well i want to post some questions to see if i can get some answers from you people. ok lets start with a little about myself. i am a master smuggler and master tk on starsider working on master pistoleer. i personally like to slice it is probablly my favorite thing to do as a smuggler given our content. i am more of a lurker on the boards than a poster all though i will post if something moves me enough to do so. also as you may can tell spelling and punctuation are not my friend so sorry and no flames about that please.ok on to the question part.
1) what is a p-up slice?
i have tryed to puta pup on after clamping seems to just be like putting a power up on and no real benifit.
2) are there really only the 2 spices people use?
i mean i sell muon like candy to 4th graders on most days. but have never really tried to sell any of the others.
3) do we really have a place in the GCW?
i am a rebel(pointless to bea imp smuggler imo) i mean besides being overt to sell faction. then being at riskfor an attack for a hour after. is there any other way as really a non combat profession to get involved.
4) are they really going to let us help in or revamp?
i have been reading all the posts. just wondering if these are just wastes of peoples game time.
well these 4 seem to be the most important to me right now.although i may add more if i think of something or if something arises in game today. please give me some responces to these questions. thanks and have fun.

You don't want to do this. This is considered a bannable exploit. If you insist on doing it, i certainly wouldn't mention it on the forums any more!
2) are there really only the 2 spices people use?

Basically, yes. I have only made and sold Muon, but recently have been asked two or three time for Neutron P.

I see smuggler as a support profession. Master Rifleman is my "day job", but I use smuggler to finance my rifle collection!

History says no, but everlasting hope says yes.

Way back when you could start a slice, slice one wire, put on a powerup, then slice the 2nd and get a freaky slice since it was now based on the pup'd values. This WAS an exploit and has been fixed. If you find a way to still do it, report it to Taurin (PM him from the forums) as it is a bannable offense.
2) are there really only the 2 spices people use?

Muon and Pixie are it. Nobody buys anything else and since the food revamp, most of the sales have dropped. They still sell, but much slower and usually not as full crates anymore. They're emergency hits.
3) do we really have a place in the GCW?

Nope. If you're a crafting profession you can provide materiel to the Rebellion, other professions can pick who they will service. Otherwise, yeah, selling faction (ships coming soon) is our best option.
4) are they really going to let us help in or revamp?

Dunno. They listened the the noise we made aout being tacked on to the jedi revamp so they might just pay attention to our ideas. Caylin's doing his best to make them hear us and pay attention. I don't think they'll care what we want... but I'm pessemistic and would like to be pleasantly surprised.

Indeed, I also found smuggler was a great way to support my flamethrower habit when I was a commando.

Well Warcry is good but Master brawler gives you extra denfences a lung 2 that you can hit kiters and the Intimidate 2 which lasts longer and has a greater chance of sticking. I have tkm/Mf/MB. As a complete melee I need the lunge for the kiting if you changed up your templet to have a ranged prof with your tkm then you may not need it. If you are going all melee you should have it. Warcry still works and is effecetive just not as good as it once was. If you go fencer you'll wish you had done the MB for the lunge 2 it is the only knock down you have without switching to another prof like tka for unarmed knockdown 1 or 2. Just depends on what you want to do and how you plan on setting up your templet. With TKM, Mb is good to have but not necessary to play the class effectivly.

I think he meant the probe and seeker droids since he said about being stuck on invest.
They seem to be working on test now I tracked a jedi just fine and my NPC mark when I tested it on TC2.
Only major problem I've heard was that if they are in the corvette or something like that you won't have the tef when they come out.
I don't know if that will hold up the hotfix or not.

just wondering what is more important in fighting Jedi, melee defense or Defenses against states i.e. defense against dizzy, knockdown etc...
Bomb droids, can you only use these one at a time?
i was almost a MBH once, got stuck on investigation most of the time my marks would be gone, is this fixed now?
thanks

I could search through this forum for new stuff but I'm lazy.

I've been offline for 3 months. anything new to BE in that time? seems like BE is a dying profession on tempest.

Tybacca! You were my favorite BE when you were still around. I don't think anything has changed about it though. Unless the Chef revamp came around after you left...components for brandy rake in a lot of cash. Other than that, the only new things would be the annoying pet checks, whichtell wether your pet is valid for its level or not (super buggy), and the new discoveries made on these forums. Such as new recipies for pets or what the actual formulas used in components are.Message Edited by darkmeh on 08-09-2004 11:53 AM
