If not, I wonder if the combat upgrade rebalance will also include a redistrubution of the skill point cost for some/all professions? Below is a list of elite/hybrid professions with the skill points required to go from the starting professions to master.

Bounty Hunter
Combat Medic
Commando

140 SP

Ranger

135 SP
Squad Leader

121 SP
Bio-engineer
Smuggler

106 SP

Dancer
Musician

92 SP

Armorsmith
Carbineer
Chef
Droid Engineer
Fencer
Image Designer
Merchant
Pikeman
Pistoleer
Rifleman
Swordsman
Tailor
Teras Kasi Artist
Weaponsmith

I have highlighted all of the professions that are likely to have a greater role in the GCW than Creature Handlers. Creature Handlers are another broken Profession.

Hopefully, CH will be fixed. Squad Leader was left outof you list Mais. I knowit's broke but I guess we shouldwork under therassumptionof the role they would have when fixed. Certainly Armorsmith & Weaponsmith will take a big supporting role.

hmmm...

Why not Bio-Engineer and Smuggler? You can have all the marked professions, but if no-one has at least Bio-Engineer 0001 and a Smuggler 0010 you won't be able to slice a base. The rest of Bio-Engineer is relatively unimportant, of course.

PS: Arg, you need a Squad leader, too! At least Novice Squad Leader that is, if I am not mistaken.

BTW, I am looking for ways to join a slice team without dropping dancer.
I clicked a little around in the character builder and made templates with professions I had not the slightest clue about. Whatever I choose, the solution will leave me less "powerful" than Master Brawler / Master Fencer / Master Dancer / Entertainer 0044.

The best solution I found was Master Pistolier / Smuggler 0130 / Brawler 4000 / Marksman 4000 / Master Dancer / Entertainer 0044. Unfortunately smugglers are already the most common profession among those needed.

Different options would be rifleman 4044 / Novice Squad Leader / marksman 4004 / scout 4114 / Master dancer / Entertainer 0044 or Commando 4400 / Master Marksman / Brawler 4000 / Master Dancer / Entertainer 0044.

The decision is not easy for me, since I don't actually want to drop fencer (I just like the style). Unfortunately it has to be and I have to decide between classes I don't know much about. So, if anyone has a hint what might be worth the trouble, I'd be glad to hear your thoughts.

The variant that I like best is the first, since Pistolier is quite alright, even though not as much "dancer" than fencer. But all in all the result would be a nice squondral who knows to act an higher stages.

Unfortunately there are already smugglers like sand in Tatooine...

1. The rate at which BF and wounds are healed and the differance is minimal considering the increased healing rate.


2. Mind / Willpower / Focus buffs. The importance of these will be lessened with the combat revamp from what I understand.
