Don't sweat it too much. It is a fairly common mistake when people are starting out and is less serious than when people nest multiple GSMCs inside one another to cram dozens of modules into a single droid.


Hopefully they will get around to fixing it sooner or later now that they have admitted that it's a bug.

I agree with Drashk on this. The advanced Protocol Droid only has room for two modules.



Makes me wonder though, since 50 smugglers got banned recently for "innocently" using a known bug as an exploit, whether there is a risk of DE's getting banned for using the cluster module bug. I guess it isn't considered a game breaking exploit though. At least not yet!!

As the joke goes, when was the last time you met a guilty man in jail?


Considering that only 50 smugglers got banned and that there are probably over 1000 of them across all the servers I think it is a fairly safe bet that the Devs didn't ban everyone who got tricked into multi-slicing a weapon or two. They targetted out the people they thought were cheating hardcore based on things like the number of offenses, whether people were reslicing the same weapon over and over again, and timestamps.


That said, putting GSMCs in regular service module slots may get you a suspension and I wouldn't be surprised if they banned people who nested GSMCs (or gave them more lengthy suspensions).


Of course everyone who is reading this now knows that its an exploit, so if I'm wrong and you get banned for doing this from this point on, its really your own fault.

Yes easily, Start as a wookie using your guild access a top quality speed sliced Bowcaster, A Pre Nerf Nyms, & a prenerf Republic (Unless your guild is filled with chimps who throw away over 2 dozen 190 + max damage Republics LOL). 4or 5 crates of +32 speed +16 min damage


Get some 80% Hunting or Ceremonial Mind buff & regular buff. Go huntvarious degreestortons with a Master Marksman. Tattered tortons are worth 1k of XP so 3 of those later youve done your first row. Keep doing em moving into he shallow tortons, then 'Regular' tortons & finish ofrow 4 with Ravenous at 3-4k a pop.


As an aside you should be able to get the scout component of BH out the way fairly easily as well.

Is it possible to Master Marksman In 1 day?? I think it is, I started a later in the day so i didn't have much time as say around lunch time or so. So farI got Pistols 4 Carbines 1 Ranged Support 4 and it took me only 3 hours. And so thats why I posted here to see if it's possible to Master Marksman in a day or less.


Oh ya another question, I have never seen a snubnosed carbine, anybody have any info on this weapon??

I did it in almost one buff session. Do quenkers on Dantooine and group a pet or droid. Have your xp moniter up on all 3 lines. You will max the first box in each on one quenker. Kill 3 quenkers on one mission go train and come back. Rifles is the slowest until you have cert. for a spraystick then its a breeze. Just shoot until you max 1 box then switch weapons for the next box. Use a Scout Blaster for pistols once you are cert also. It did help me that I had enough combat xp to start out at 0004 marksman, that was nice.

Where in the heck do you find buffs (hopefully cheap enough for a guy with a net worth of 50k to afford) and are there really any master marksmen who would go hunt with a n00b just so he could get XP?





I mastered in about 5 days, jeeze like 5 months ago, and still haven't given it up. Buffs only cost around 11k on average, and missions you can run with that buff can easily pay it off. Just get the highest paying ones and make sure you have some decent armor (oh, and for the record, I didn't uses any "uber crossbow").
