Thread: When is the Carbineer Revamp? over 2 years and I still can't carbineer.
Carbineers, Pistoleers, Riflemen, and any Elite Brawler professions are suppose to be supplements to another profession like Bounty Hunter, Architect, Smuggler, Ranger, etc. Your content is your increased ability to fire or use that particular weapon.
They do need Smuggler terminals. Rangers already have a terminal with Explorer terminals. BH's have terminals obviously.

You have got to be kidding me!
Let's see:
Can Carbineers use carbines?
Can Smugglers smuggle?
I love it when people put 2 and 2 together and come up with a fridge...

I was debating on what to post, but this post sums up my feelings too. Is it wrong that when I read the original post, I hear the words spoken by Ralph Wiggum? 'Me fail English? That's unpossible!'

Just for giggles, because SWG is filled with alot of pepole complaining lately,how would you revamp carbineer to make it even better? Personally, right now I don't think there are any skills that set us apart from pistoleer or rifleman. I"m not just talking about speed and range either.For the last two years smugglers have whined , but at the same time they also received combat improvements. Actually more improvements than carbineer have received in two years if you consider we lost some abilities with the CU.What bothers me with the Smuggler community is that they feel they deserve special attention just because one character happended to be a smuggler. Each profession deserves the opportunity of unique/dynamic mission system. I know future expansions will probably give us new quests, but once completed we are back to square one. Either you PVP, Loot, or grind away at boring/repetitive missions. I think each profession should have a mission system that requires their specfic skills and helps to reinforce the underlying qualities of said profession.Message Edited by Opie76 on 09-02-2005 09:27 PM
Regardless if this is a joke or not- This has to be the most idiotic post I have seen on the forums in months.
A carabineer or carbineer is a solider or person who is sufficient at weilding a carbine.
Just as a pistoleer is a solider or person who is sufficient at weilding a carbine, and same with rifles and riflemen.
I have been a Smuggler for 2 years and a carbineer for 18 months, two seperate characters.
Smugglers are not a combat specific profession, we are a hybrid profession where in we are meant to be title specific, a person who SMUGGLES. A carbineer, pistoleer, rifleman, all are title specific, people who use those weapons.
Saying "over 2 years and you can't carbineer" is just retarded. Carbineers had all of their specials essentially re-worked in the CU and smugglers were given 3-4 new specials, whoopity do. Get a stand alone smuggler and a stand alone carbineer and the carbineer would most likely own. Smuggler is best when combined with another profession, where carbineer is powerful as it is.
All combat professions are mercenaries of sorts, contract killing machines. Saying you don't have content or missions is pathetic, goto any mission terminal and pick something- Guess what! You're being HIRED as a contract killer; being hired as a CARBINEER.
Can I as a smuggler walk up to a mission and SMUGGLE? No. I can do a delivery mission, that is it. No risk hence very very little reward.

Something can be said for post master content. I just started the CH grind and even after I get the master box...(8 hours grind tops) I still have to hunt for wild spawns with specials to make myself truely effective. My main toon is a MRM/MC/MM/pistols0434 and some medic. If I had to hunt for more advanced specials to make myself truely effective instead of combat macros I would enjoy this game alot more.
I have honestly put my main away because my MC/MCH alt is more fun! Looking for animals is a blast/frustrating. I can go 3 hours taming hundreds of babies and get nuthing. Then I get 2 and then I have to grind those animals to learn the specials. That is joy! I vote for more post master content similar too CH for us combat toons!
