Hello again!


My last post got me the answers I needed so I figured I'd try again. I'm here again to ask for opinions on what armor, weapons, and anything else that can keep me alive a little longer. Any past/current combinations that work would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

Recon armor 8000+ to energy with 75% slice against armor break


weapon depends on what your ranged profession is but whatever it is get krayt tissues or gorax bones and tell the weaponsmith (hopefully a 12 point) to figure out how much it would take get this weapon with this particular loot (the bones or tissue) to be within 8% of the max damage for that weapon and have him set the damage for that. Then have him reduce the SAC as much as possible with the remaining points. Tell him not to worry about speed. Then get the loot to have it sliced for the 8% damage increase and use the reinforced stocks to get even lower SAC. A good weaponsmith will know exactly what you are talking about.



Then use mandalorian wine, wonwon, booster blue and ruby blial. Carry stims to supplement your 4000cm healing. Use the stims as much as possible and healing when needed.

foods: i recommend at least bofa treats and blob candy...180-200 regen to health and action. If you're a healer, add spiced tea in as well, same stats to mind...each should last at least 45 minutes. Deut pyro is good for ranged accuracy but doesnt last long...for a lil longer duration, crispic is like 10 minutes with +40 or so. Vegasparine is +100 melee defense for maybe 8 minutes...good against jedi i think, some will say range between damage on a saber is too small for it to matter.


armour: highest energy possible.


Weapons:depends on your temp, didnt see if you listed yours or not and i /replied to the wrong post in your thread. Laser rifle for a rifleman i'd say, carbs a laser carbine or maybe proton carbine, pistols i have no clue. always get SAC capped first, next important is damage, finally speed. get a krayted weapon if you can...um yeah.

o also you'll want spice...muon if you're not, booster blue if you are a healer. and get an improved duelist stance macro going...duelist stance is in same opinion category as vegasparine though.

I believe the smuggler slice for damage is lower than the max damage a weapon smith can make...might want to top out damage put rest on sac then speed slice 100%.


Correct me if I am wrong, but I have a fw-fwg that damage capped at 935 during a slice, not from slice but from a slicing cap.. my weapon was 906 damage before any slice and at 8% should have gone to over 960's,


Smuggler said this is because cap for slices on damage, and the weaponsmiths can craft higher than their slice... or atleast on pistols.

i think its not that important...cap on rifles is 1184 from crafting 1183 from slicing i know for a fact. i still say get SAC capped first...getting out more shots is a lot more important than an extra 50 or 100 damage you wont be able to use because your green bar says zero

Don't forget to get crates of seekers, swoops/speederbikes, doubles of your armour & high damage weapons, whatever you're certed for.

Just a little tidbit on Slicing. I am a MBH/MSmug so I know a little about this. Remember that all slicing tools are loot drops now, so there could be an availability issue. I am not sure how it is on the other servers but I am guessing it is the same as Eclipse. to get a full (3 Stage) Damage slice you have to have an Illegal core booster to slice the last Stage. This slice will give you and 8% damage increase. However, the Illegal core Boosters are VERY VERY rare. I have only seen one myself and it was selling for 500k and was gone before i could get to the vendor. Also, something that not everyone has figured out, including the Smugglers: you can get a FULL Damage slice (If you can find the core booster or someone who has it) and a 2% speed slice and a 3% crit chance slice all on the same weapon. A stage 2 slice for damage gives 4% increase and with the speed and Crit slice it can be quite a decent slice and you can still get the last damage slice later.


Speed slices are 4 stage for the full slice and the delicate trigger assemblies seem to fall freely from Krayts. The speed slice is a 12% increase.


If you have any more slicing questions, feel free to shoot them to me, I'd be happy to answer any questions.
