Entertainer Archive

This week as I have been going up the skill tress in dancer I realized that when I get master I will only have dance knowledge of +90 because I will be missing the +10 from Master Entertainer. I was wondering what others experiences are as far as whether having master entertainer makes a difference and wondering if I should go for Master Entertainer when I could use those skill points elsewhere. Any ideas?

A Master Entertainer has access to the following:

Songs:

Starwars 1
Rock
Starwars 2
Folk
Starwars 3
Ceremonial

Dances:

Basic 1 & 2
Rhythmic 1 & 2
Footloose 1 & 2
Formal 1 & 2

Instruments:

Slitherhorn
Fizzz
Kloo Horn
Fanfare
Mandoviol

You also get additional hairstyles and the hairstyler title and +10 to both dance and music knowledge and wound healing.

I'm going for Master Entertainer at the moment, close to Master dancer already, but the lure of the Mandoviol pulled me in. Also footloose2 looks pretty funky. Appearently formal2 is pretty good too, but then you can't see that very well with all the strafing going on.

I'm not exactly sure if this is true or not, but if you take master Entertainer to get +100 knowledge, you won't fall over anymore while dancing.

I personally think I fall a lot less then those dancers that aren't ME's. Just my oppinion tho really, but the +10 should make you fall a lot less. I have the ability to drop and learn skills at will and it seems like to me whenever I drop ME I definately fall more often.

I'm Master Entertainer, Master Dancer and Master Musician - I still fall over frequently Of course, it may have something to do with the long skirts I like to wear *grins*

Yes believe me ME doesn't stop the falling I watch our Master Dancer/Master Entertainer fall still with regularity on Poplock 2 and Exotics

Its stupid this falling it looks terrible and serves no purpose. We get full experience for the move and it just ruins shows.

Ok try this out to stop falling, dance with a Rik Blade, I was told if you dance with a sword ( the Rik looks the neatest) and only a sword, not a gun or dagger, you will not fall. I bought a blade already but haven't tried it yet so let me know if it works. And the blade only cost me 500 credits, cuz who cares abouts stats if it is for show?

The extra +10 to dance skill won't eliminate falling, just reduce it slightly. Theoretically. If that's your only motivation for going ME then you should probably save the skill points.

Equipping a sword should not affect falling at all.

I have started dancing with my scout blaster in hand. I have not fallen once in the past 2 weeks.

It's cheesy to dance with the gun, but the small size of the scout blaster almost gives a bit of a "femme fatale" look.

If it's true that the falling is eliminated by holding some items, then it definitely behooves us to push for those dancing props.

Of course, it's better to just eliminate falling, but if that isn't coming soon, we may be able to talk them into introducing dancing props.

Hmmm... If the "holding something" trick really works then I'd recommend a spraystick if you want it to be inconspicuous. It's nearly the same size as your hand so a person can barely telll that you're holding one.

Woohoo off to buy a small item to hold so I quit falling on my butt, I know my carbine didn't work. The Rik Blade works but only looks good with the exotic dances so since I am not quite there yet I will go get a small gun or maybe a staff. Thanks for the info!

Hold an item (such as a pistol or sword) does appear to stop falling while dancing. I've been testing this over the past week since I heard about it - not fallen once

Dance with a rifle or heavy weapon, then make gun jokes. You'd be amazed at how much laughter you get.

/emote has a big gun.

/emote also has a rifle.

Ah yes. The wonderful immaturity of a college boy. At this rate, I'll be giving the 13 year old l337ers a run for their money. Except I'll be stupid and coherent.
