Well supposedly 5 percent slice is good with the higher end weapons...at least that's what the smuggler told me? Is he right?

Some Smuggler advice concerning slicing...
Hold off on getting weapons sliced until they fix it.. Rumor has it that at least the slicing aspect of the long-awaited "Smuggler Revamp" is on its way soonish.
Slicing is very screwy right now. The general assumption is that slice results are effected by the hard number caps put on weapons.
Also, if a smuggler you had slice something for you got a "critical failure", don't go to him any more.
There is absolutely NO reason a smuggler should fail a slice. Unless they're A) extremely lazy and don't care about you as a customer, B) a respec smuggler who doesn't know what they're doing, or C) retarded.
Any smuggler who knows what they are doing gets a successful slice 100% of the time. That hasn't changed. It's the wonky numbers themselves(including negative slice results being displayed)that are screwy right now.

Yeah, two of the quest pistols I got were critical failures, the smuggler said oh well, better luck next time. Got me extremley angry! I can't get the pistols again because it's a one quest loot item. I seriously doubt if I sent a ticket to the devs, they could give me two more pistols. I don't know, maybe they will throw people a bone when the smuggler revamp comes, and will let everybody reslice there weapons?What do you guys think?
That sucks. Sounds like a respec smuggler to me, damn them! heh. Next time make sure the smuggler can guarantee 100% success.
Funny, I just answered the "re-slice" question on the Smuggler board. My initial feeling is that they won't allow it. Simply because if theyreset all sliced weapons as unsliced, how do they know the original slice amount and how much to knock off the sliced stats when they revert them?
