No way in hell can these be just Master Levels. Politicians are in what the Top 10? There aren't that many "Master Politicians" running around. After they made Poli a point free profession everyone and their mom ran out to train in at least Novice Politician for some stupid reason.

Force Sensitive - Crafting. Third from the bottom. I think this shows pretty well how crafters in general got screwed over in the FS grind post-CU.

I know for a fact that there's less Master Force Healers than Droid Engineers on Corbantis. I would have prefered a list that showed the real truth about the real popularity of professions, not just dabbling lines.



Awww. Hehe.

Well, the last time they did the profession stats, they included a least-most mastered profession list as well. They could add that, perhaps.

And I want to see where "Jedi" stands with the professions combined!

Look at Force Healer in this list.

All Jedi must dabble in Healer.

Reason: The lack of multiplayer pve content and Star Wars feel.
For 3 years I have tried to find excuses to stay in game but only the expansions offered me what I subscribed for in the first place: A multiplayer Star Wars pve experience with friends around the globe. I found friends but with almost no addition of pve content they dropped out one by one. Now it's my turn.

I wouldnt be surprised if it wouldnt make difference if they listed master only there...

Many Jedi make their alt to BH, and many Jedi-haters go BH, and you need to be MBHto hunt Jedi.

That's actually good info!


What are the chances of getting actual numbers, or percentages?


For all the whining about too many jedi, the only professions played LESS are the crafters/entertainers/broken proffs.

But not all Jedi do.

Please...I don't see "Jedi" there at all, I see it split up, diluting the numbers. Not to mention, each Jedi gets a non-Jedi alt. If they added "Jedi" as a whole, it would be higher placed, even much more if they removed the Jedi alts.
