Dear Tiggs,

If someone in the galaxy has the answer to my question, this is you.
I have been crafting and storing crates of buffs for a long while. My guildmates helped me gather the ressources and I always kept my buffs for my guildies, never selling some outside or rarely.
I know that the CURB is gonna happen soon, and don't misunderstand me, I think it is just great. But we all the buff system will be changed deeply. I was wondering whether the buffs existing in game before the CURB will be deleted or transformed into the new buff packs?

I am asking cause I am FOrce Sensitive and am slowly working on the Sense tree. In case those buffs are meant to disappear, I would be happy to know it so I could use them to buff customers around as much as I can until the CURB to gain Force experience.

I know you prolly don't know yet, and even if you do, there is little chance you could tell me. But I thought I would ask just in case you would be able to give us a peice of advice.

I thank you in advance !

assuming they will be changed to a new type of buff, and that those buffs will enhance about for +20%, will the xp amount received for buffing be the same?

many many questions

We can expect a post that will answer these types of questions. Tiggs certainly doesn't know that type of thing, but the CU team (devs) will let us know once they have it worked out. My guess is they don't have all the details finalized. And even if/when they are, things could still change.

My big question is what will the 12 point suit I use now be good for? I don't see myself going BE to craft. I picked Doc for the fact that I was tired of looking for buffs and could craft my own, with no need of special items crafted by other Profs.

The suits need to be discussed and the devs said they need to sit down and talk about it. The big thing is, at present, BE doesn't have skill tapes, so they would not only need to convert over to BE, but actually GIVE BE a skill tape system. However, if they didn't give BE tapes for a reason, will those tapes be good for ALL BE, or just the med crafting column, etc...

Yeah, I'd say that's something they need to figure out, especially considering the majority of us spent around 20+ mil for our suits...

BE's don't want any skill tapes. We don't want to have to worry about spending that kind of cash for suits.

that buff packs would be converted.

I'd have to guess that experience would be roughly the same--but I don't know that I'd count on it.

If you'd like to add this to my post (linked above), I think it would add weight to my arguments.

Thanks!
