Thread: FS Dancer
Think Persuation just gives you a chance to evade scans by imperial crackdown troops (and most likely imperial troops as well soon)
But I would have to drop quite a bit to take that quest, I was not willing to do that.
And I really see NO FREAKING POINT why persuation is limited to Medics? Yeah sure the quest is designed that you can't pass without it, but why?
Its the same as making Melee Speed quest require Master Rifleman
But I think we're drifting away from the topic of the Dancer forum

I can't help but get the impression that the devs see us "social" types as being very one dimensional. As if people can't enjoy being social and doing other things, too.
This is something that concerns me greatly, especially in light of our upcoming revamp. I'm concerned that they actually see us as the "girlfriend group" that happily chats awaywith each otherwhile doing /setp on the combatters as they come in and politely ask for a buff.

Precisely. There are plenty of men (not just musicians but dancers, too) amongst our group, but even if there weren't - I'm not a one dimensional cardboard cutout from some hotrod calendar! I have varying likes and dislikes, I have a brain (and on occasion use it) and I have a bank account. Pretty soon, to keep said bank account happy, I'm likely to have to decide between Galaxies and "the game that shall not be mentioned". What will SWG do to help me make up my mind?
SOE and the devs need to get smart about this "social" group. We aregreater than the total sum of their assumptions.
But, then - I digress from the topic . . . yet again . . .

Though Persuasion would seem kinda cool for an Entertainer, appearing as a Rebel or Imperial to whoever walked in, knowing things about your customers ahead of time... how does that one work anyway?
Persuasion lowers your cost of training when you train through a npc.

Not to mention that you need Master MEDIC to even take and complete the quest required for the DANCER mods (yes,yes, I know, they also have some Medic Mods, but still, see my point?)
Well, actually you just need novice medic. But, you'll have to buy stims from those who can make them. Either way though, there is no entertainer quest in the village.

With the removal of the need for app points to get Master, this would be VERY useful as thereis now no longer any incentive to train people other than good will (and you can't always depend on good will).

The problem of not having any FS skills relevant to non-combat professions is a widespread problem. Nothing for Creature Handlers; nothing for Smugglers; precious little for Scout/Rangers; etc. And unfortunately, several of the Senses professions require Doc, Medic, or (for Luck) Artisan skills.
Yes, it's very annoying that ALL of the senses branches REQUIRE either Medic/Doctor or Artisan. There is little for BE either (unless the BE takes Master Medic and BEs have skill point issues as it is). I know that my BE on Eclipse was very frustrated that the Phase 1 quest couldn't be done with just Medic 0/0/0/4 as she doesn't have the skill points to spare for Master Medic (let alone Doctor). I had to do some creative dropping and recovery of skills to finish the Senses quests (and she did all of them)... picked up then dropped Novice Artisan for the 2 that require that, dropped several skills I want to keep to get Master Medic for the Phase 1 Quest, of them all, only the Phase 4 quests did not require changing her template... and I am still peeved that I will have to actually make her a jedi (and NOT be able to drop it afterwards) in order to unlock my second character slot. At least the Reflexes Quests don't require ANY particular skills (even my Pure non-combat character was able to do the Phase 2 Reflexes Quest).
