Thanks for posting the info.
Right now no professions are seeing their master level boxes, so we're not sure if this is just a UI bug or what (there's a little arrow in the UI that we can't click that may have something to do with it).

Ok, I managed to get in to the servers as they came up, so I've got a bit of info (not too much though because the tutorial is bugged and I'm blocked from getting out of it)
The "Engineer" line of trader is DE, WS, MA, and Merchant
The DE professions seems to have been box for box copied into the new system. As I was skimming through I didn't see any changes in the skill boxes. However, it doesn't look like you have any options as to what order you get the skills in. It alternates between the various artisan/merchant/DE/WS skills.

Anyone else with information reguarding DE (specifically as it relates to converstion from old to new system) post here. If the post is about issues with droids in the NGE (bugs and whatnot) and not about the transition, post here

So... When you follow that line, you are MS WS, MS DE, MS SW ... MS Merchant???


If that's true: my 2cts:


YUCK!


And my Force Crafting skills, just 4 days ago completed to be 4444 out the window i presume?

Seems more like the following:


Master Engineer :


Equivalent to Master Merchant, Master Artisan, Master Droid Engineer but not Master Weaponsmith (only have some of the weapons).


Sounds like repair kits and upgrades etc will be engineer only. Once I manage to get on test Ill see what I can see.

I thought shipwright was part of this tree too? Am Master Art/MDE/MSW so for the week i'm am around before my subscription expires i'd like to have the same skills if possible !! Sod it, think i'll just go jedi for a week



Seriously though (dont wanna hijack the thread) I thought AS and WS were on another 'branch' completely to MDE? Also, if you don't take the merchant 'branch' do you still get vendors like master artisan does now?

First off, you don't just choose Trader and then specialise later on down the road, you have to specialise from the get go.


Domestic Goods:
Clothing
Food
Drinks
Desserts
(So basically what chef and tailor had)


Structures: (Large Item Construction)
Structures
Decorations
Furniture
Space Ship Hulls
Space Ship Components
(Well I was wondering why architect were all on their ownsome in here)


Munitions: (Military Equipment)
Weapons
Armor


Engineering: (High Tech Engineering)
Construction and Modification of:
Droids
Weapons
(Looks like the power ups and tools will go in here and possibly the swoops etc)


Once you master the path you chose you will be Master Merchant, Master Artisan as well. Whether that means you get the full 12 vendors and everyone makes the swoops I don't know. Got this from a screen shot someone managed to grab out from the game while testing.


edit:

I assume that having no more skill trees as such you gaina little merchant, assembly, experimentation (assuming it exists now) and erm I guess thats it.

I am actually glad we dont share our tree like AS & WS appear to do less competition. If we get the extras such as Repairs tools etc we can boost our income.


I am so looking forward to this, don't know why.

NOOOooooooooooohhhhhhh!


I've been so proud to be a MDE since 1/1/04, and a MSW since 11/1/04... (on my alt Kniol) - the two professions work together, making me able to make Droid parts, Ships and Ship components, Astromechs and Flight Computers... the list goes on and on.....


Man, it will be HARD to choose which to do!
