ok so im has been duled down a bit, seeing less skill points, no timers and no stat migrations. i thing with stat mighrations gone we will need a way for combat chats to neeed us, think combad chars need a armorsmith, wepponsmith, doctor, medic, scout, smuggler (sometimes), and a image designer. well all but the last one soon, whay would a combat dude come to get a hair change?? not!! make it so they need us somehow, maby a good role in cibernetic arms and legs or, somthing...

Stop panicking. The sky is not falling. Most of us survived quite well before stat migrations and we will survive the Combat Upgrade. How many threads are you going to start with this same issue?
I personally don't want to have a part in combat, if I did, I'd pick up a gun and shoot things. If disguises come in, I'd love to play with that. When Cybernetic limbs come in, perhaps we'll get a role to play in that. Maybe they'll decide that craftables are in order for us.
Relax, give constructive ideas, and hopefully we'll have some new toys to play with after the CU.

We really don't need to be neeeded....
.....
It's true, MID without stat migrations is less profitable BUT also is a lot more Fun!!! and when you think about it"FUN" is why we all play this game. 
- Custumers are all nicer
- Each ID season is never boreing
- We are now free from the tents
- You get a lot more RPing customers
- etc etc

The trick here is not to be needed by all that combat folks, but to give us (and the other entertainers) something the others would like to get, but that they NOT really need. Just something they want, but not need. Sure, this is not an easy thing to find, but there are ideas about this and maybe we can think up some more of them. That was one of the reasons why I started the brain-storm thread.
And as I stated before: The CU is not the end of things, it's not even finished... it's far away from that. The beta for the CU just started and with our feedback the devs can start to tweak and fix it so in the end it makes combat in this game as it should be.
When this is done the devs can work on other parts of the game. And us entertainer professions (yes, that includes the ID) are right on top of the list of those things. We are not alone on top there, but we are right there. So please folks don't panic or start complaining and flaming away. This won't help us a bit.
Help with testing the CU.Follow the instructions of the devs about what they want you to look at or focus on and be constructive.

Initially I was miffedwhen I heard thatstat migrations were going away, but truthfully the bulk of my business is not stat migrations but makeovers lol. Most people are so thrilled with their new look they pay as much or more than I would charge for a stat migration, so I don't think it's going to hurt business at all. ![]()

Ok. I wouldn't say those two apply ALL the time

I don't think we need a revamp. New content, certainly. But revamp implies we're broken, and we're not. We are a profession that is, more or less, working as intended. We have bugs and things we'd like to change,sure, but overall we're not borked. We just need new toys.

No need. Us and Tailors should be professions that people desire to seek out. Tailors obviously dont really benfit anyone that much other than style. I mean yeah okay the occasional skillmod but come on. Any Tailor or ID will tell you straightt up that the majority of their customers and the majority of customers we seek are those who want to find us. Not are forced. We fewlt the wrath of l337 speak during the Stat migrations and we wont have it again.
