Might make things less confusing. Don know if its worth the effort tho. I personally wouldn't mind a pop up once every 30 minutes but you can still macro around that.

The option to be able to selectivly heal peopledoesnt have to be a popup. It could be an active thing on the dancers behalf. Something like /setheal for example, that works in a similar way to /setperformance.


It would be better if such a "/setheal" command only made healing quicker. All the afk dancers can still heal without using it as it works currently, but not as quick as someone who is using this command.


This would keep the afk'ers happy too, while rewarding those who dance and without constant interruptions or people begging to be healed.

Stop whining.... a more creative and better solution would be to have an option to delacred employment at the cantina once you reach dancer or musician and then you get paid so many credits every so often that you dance or play there on top of the tips. Should be the same for medics as well.....




that way everyone wins... AFK's .... holotainers.. and yes , even the WHINERS !!!

It is amazing how mad the AFK entertainers make you people. When I play there are almost no entertainers on, so I like having them around. Are they taking away from your tips? I doubt it. Who tips someone who is afk? Most people realize who the real entertainers are, when they are on, and listen to them accordingly. The people who don't tip you never will because they are cheap bastards.

Credit nerfed? perhaps.... but I'm having a hard time fathoming why entertainers and such are needing crates of grenandes, heavy launcher weapons, and full suits of composite armor......






The way I look at it, I'm not just a dancer, I also want to get out & fight, so I DO need armor. I'm also a Creature Handler so I DO need to be able to potentially buy pets, have a house for my storage, etc. I don't see anything wrong with us having a potential way to have a little more money..


I think this would be very good with the "watch the entertainer" option. Either that or yet, make the missions pay out more. We could use it. I do make money as a scout, but not much & if I want anything nice like a landspeeder to get around, I often don't have the money for it. *shrug*

I always wondered why we didn't have an option to sign up at a cantina & dance for a period of hour(s) so that we could earn some credits. I mean, why not? We'd at least make something that way & wouldn't have to depend so much on tips. I say I work at the Bestine cantina (& always have) but my "employer" at the cantina has never even paid me, so why can't my "employer" pay me? heehee It certainly would give something to do with the credits the system gets from shuttle flights, etc, that just seemingly disappear..

You think a landspeeder is nice !!!!!! And if you are a CH and can't get credits or anything then you have bigger problems than this holotainer issue and need to figure out what you are doing wrong.....



I have soloed on Lok as unarmed and had no problems whatsoever and have not worn armor since the third week after launch. Yes, all of my clothing is at 0 condition. So if I can do it, anyone can.

Sorry but it's been my experience that dancers that are actualy entertaining don't have a problem getting tips. I personaly have made over 200k in 3-4 hrs doing mind buffs and getting tips. I have seen many times my dance partner get tips of over 100k for a single buff. If you are just going to be a robot you are not going to get much. Talk to your customers be fun you will make money. If you can't then go find another trade.

I have no problem making money but I still want an alternative. The entertainer mission terminals would be perfect, except for the fact that the payout is less than the price of a ticket to get to the venue. Why can't I make a few thousand credits by taking a mission and then taking a shuttle to Mos Espa? I make 5000 credits just sitting in Theed for 5 minutes giving a Master Dancer buff. But some days I don't want to just sit in Theed. Some days I think it would be fun to take a mission to the Cantina in, oh, Kaadara, and dance for 30 minutes there for a payout. I am a Master Dancer. Don't I deserve 10k to fly to Kaadara and perform for an hour? As it stands now the payout is 100 credits. That's absurd! Not only would decent payouts be something neat, it would get all of us entertainers out of the big three world cantinas and into different cantinas.


Thoughts?
