ditto..
i myself am for an even mor customizabl system to wher eeach type of weapon has multiple looks for the same weapon and they are chosen during crafting, maybe not as many presets as lightsabers but 2 or 3 different versions to make weapons more unique to the weilder.

Ok, anoher silly question.
In the discription of the RSF Sword (which looks cool anyway), it states that it is most commonly worn my Rebel Alliance. RSF is not Alliance aligned, it is Imperial aligned. Did anyone notice this?
Oh, good point. RSF is the Royal Security Forces: ala the Queen's Own; naturally under the Imperial law.
On a different point,
Really hoping the devs stick with their old plans to rule outcerts and leave only specialsto determine who does what with which weapon.
For example, using the Death-Hammer pistol with Eyeshot in the Bounty Hunter line, or Stopping shot with the Jawa Ion pistol in the Cowbo.. Pistoleer line.

Great looking stuff.
Weneed more rifles, and pikes though.
Thankfully we now have an alternative for the Fencer's Gafi stick (aka tire iron). Who'd guess that the fencer's best weapon was crafted by the primitivetusken raiders (thankfully thats fixed). How about a foil/rapier or something for them.. The RSF is about as close as you've got now.
I'm guessing one of the rifles do blast damage, because it seems odd to have a pistol that does blast damage, but no similar rifle.
How about a Gamorean Pike? I'm sure they didn't only make axes. Stun pike?
How about some heavy weapons that operate like a nargalon? (laser machine gun nest anyone? ala stormtrooper fashion on New Hope.)
Just some suggestions..

I LOVE the new pistals comming out. But what type of damage will they be doing. I can make a few guesses on some of them like....
Jawa Ion Pistol -??
Flechette Pistol -Blast?
Death Hammer Pistol-??
Flare Pistol-Fire? (PLEASE LET IT BE FIRE!!!)))

simply stunning...
I am amazed at how the combat upgrade will change how we see the game. Keep up the good work.
I am so tempted to ask when but I will remain patient. I have made it this far, might as well wait just a bit longer.

Looking very nice.
Would prefer have more use out of the current pistols though.
At Master Pistoleer I only really use Republic Blaster, DX2 and Genosian pop gun, the rest are pretty useless and do very little damage to speak of.
I sincerely hope there will be nothing for the Jedi in this as they are pampered enough.

Please for once remeber Pikeman, and give is a weapon that is as accessible as the powerhammer and as useful, not a weapon that costs 10000000000000 credits and that is rare.

Thats what I'm saying......Why do pikeman get the shaft? The only good weapon is rare, and you can only get the schematic from an NPC that spawns once a day and is slaughtered by and UBER group (usually made of complete jerks, no offense to anyone who deserves the lance) and even that weapon isnt very good for anything......So it renders pikeman not too good for PVP or PVE unless you stack all your skill mods with other professions that you might as well use instead of pikeman. I dont mean to complain but throw us a bone, we're starving here!
