Okay, it's one of those absolutely nothing comments, but the concept really does go right along with what so many of us have always wanted to see...
So here's a quote from the Dev Chat tonight...
"Brannoc: *Speedfire[kauri]* I Worry about the future of Artists. Mission terminals and only one quest aren't enough. Will other contents be added in the game for these players? Thank you
SraySOE: One of the things we are wanting to do with questing is to provide different roles for different professions within the quest itself.
SraySOE: So, the mix of professions you have in your group provide different solutions for what is going on
SraySOE: For instance, you are faced with a locked door, if you have a Smuggler, might be able to slice it, if you have a commando, she might be able to blast it down and if you have an entertainer, she might be able to charm the key from a guard"
They're not saying they've implimented anything, they're not saying they will ever actually do anything like this...
BUT they did mention us and in a cool way, like many of us had always hoped for.
Just nice to see, in my opinion.
I know guards on post often trade me a few keys for an autograph or two.
It's about time they start coding it in for the rest of you all!

I really hope they go in that direction with quests. In single player games I love it when there are multiple ways to complete goals.

Yes, i think nothing will change for us. They'll just add new musics and dances and that's all on the TC. I hope to see missions for us, quests with contracts in a specific structure for a 4-musicians band for instance etc... If you're a Master musician, even after the coming patch, you will have nothing to do.
I really hope this profession to be improved.

LOL Sexist?
I hope you're kidding
The line could easily be replaced by "He" instead of "She", just like the commando line.
I'm not ashamed to admit... as a male, I've charmed a lot of things from other people.
Hehe

I think about something these afternoon, there's a lot of things that can be done to improve musician profession -dancer too-
- Overall Quality on an instrument can modify healing&buff when a musician uses it
- Amaster musician can have 10 music points that can be spent on new songs.The musician canget these songs while a quest but (s)he won't be able to get all songs (10 points - 5 pts for 'X' songs,5pts for 'Y' song, 3 pts for another songs for instance). Once you want to surrend one of these songs you have to complete the quest again
- Decay on instruments (can improve instrument business)
- Light effects & droid effects can modify healing and buff
- Quests where musicians will be useful
What do you think about that?

i think the devs have to give a rats ..... first ... this is why i've stoped posting "idea" threads... they are pointless. We cant get a dev in here at all let alone remotly consider ideas.

Don't worry, as Musician Dev Pro Tempore, I'll ensure such a foolish slip up never occurs again.
Devs are not to mention Entertainers.
I'll have to send Sray that memo again. I think Thunderheart forgot to put the cover sheet on his TPS report again.
