Remember Our Vote?





A) Hunter 5 (1/0/2)
B) Sniper 123 (27/13/6)
C) Assassin 119 (25/12/10)
D) Silent Assassin 68 (8/12/10)
E) Ghost 81 (14/12/15)
F) Wraith 38 (4/8/10)
G) Bushmaster 16 (0/6/4)
H) Recon Specialist 65 (11/10/12)
I) Predator 30 (3/8/5)

B) Move "Sniper" from the accuracy branch and make it the "Concealment" branch title.In the "Accuracy" branchput"Sharpshooter" and for Master box put "Master Rifleman"


Q3P0 told me Master Sharpshooterwill indeed be changed to Master Rifleman and Novice Sharpshooterwill now say "Novice Rifleman"


From what I understand he will pick between our 2 top winning suggestion.







Well, the little kiddies and l337 r0xx0r5 got their pick chosen. Concealment IV is now titled Assassin. Guess I'll assassinate those savage quenkers, peko pekos and banthas, while listening to the BH'sb!+ch about how they should be called Assassins.


Klaw, I want you to get the Devs to add Assassination Contract terminals for us Rifleman (then the title would make sense, but I guess we are just RP'ing this fallacy huh) post haste.

i agree with ya totally. im not an assassin. an assassin is someone without honour. i think its a insult to the profession as a whole.

Bounty hunters hunt bounties. As such they are not the same as contract killers. AKA Hitmen, or Assassins. Bounties *may* involve death as an acceptable form of justice. However killing sentients is not all that they do. Sure that may not be accurate for Star Wars Galaxies in terms of game play. However that is how bounty hunters work in the SW universe. With the theme of rifleman being that of attacking unseen from a distance. Well that makes that profession more likely to be an assassin over someone that more than likely has a peace keeping lisence.


As for assassins not having honor. That's all a matter of perspective. Besides, what exactly is honorable in shooting your opponent at max distance and from concealment? The title makes some sense for the profession,(though assasin probably should be a profession all it's own)and if you don't like it... Don't wear it!

How about we just pick Ghost and throw B and C out the window




Like the Pheonix, he shall rise from the fire
And be born a new.

Flames will rain down upon all that oppose him
And when the embers cool

None will be left standing.

See, it should have been "Indigenous Shrubbery" like I said all along.


But honestly how does it not fit? Maybe you don't assassinate the savage quenkers but then a soldier doesn't go out slaughtering deer so I suppose that title should be thrown out too huh? I assassinate stormtroopers over and over again, I also kill them as a sniper, a gunner, and a soldier so they work for everything. Pikets work as a sniper and a gunner. Overts work with all 4. So do some of the high pay missions on the main worlds (nyax followers etc.) so it seems to me that these are pretty good.


Of course I wear warmaster exclusively now, especially in battle. Might change it to statesmen when I get that title though and just wandering around covert in my suit and tie.

Assassin is much better than hunter, but I completely agree with Rolassk. They really got screwed up on the titles...

we have the Sniper - the man who hunts his targets and takes them down with a quick shot ensuring one shot one kill

we have an Assasin - the man who stalks his prey in the shadows by contract or by choice, the prey never knew what hit him,rifle fire from concealed locations

we have the gunner - the man behind the big guns, specialised in flushing out enemy snipers by laying heavy fires onto their position

and finally we have the soldier - the army grunt, trained excessivly in live combat using rifles, making him very lethal and quick in dealing with targets.


I say we have exactly the kind of titles we need for rifles...it gives the option for every type of player. Sniper and sharpshooter are too much alike

Heh I like Assassin, but "a bush" would have been l337.


Assassins are not contract killers BTW, they are people who Assassinate people. I doubt Lee Harvey Oswald was a contract killer(If you believe he killed Kennedy, I don't personally, but I'm a conspiracy nut)
