Ok, so I bought SWG, checked up on some different professions and settled for smuggler as it seemed... well... best/funniest/coolest/whatever


BUT, I've just discovered a few threads that seem to say there is nothing to smuggle... or rather, there is no reason to smuggle anything because there are no missions involving smuggling... and the imperial crack downs are a joke... is this correct?


I found a dev note about smuggling missions but it was like a year old...


Anyone out there who can give mea short update on the state of the smuggler profession? Is it more or less broken and I should look for an other profession?

Nope... we can't Smuggle. We don't know if or when we'll be able to in the future.



Fun, huh?

yes sir-ee.


I have cancelled my account because the only thing that intereseted me in this game was the ability to NOT be a Jedi.


Although you'll soon find out that everything in this game points you to becoming one anyways.


And I will say one last thing:


You will never find a better community to be in than the Smuggler community. Remember that sarcasm is par-for-the-course here and people are to be taken in jest.


You'll have a great time - i know I did.



Enjoy, youlittle soon-to-be not-quite-a-smuggler, you.

Wow first post ever and this is what you learn. Seems like the "Total Experience" box should just come with a fist that punches anyone who dreams of Smuggling right in the mush upon opening it.






Hello, I must be going. I cannot stay, I came to say I must be going. I'm glad I came but just the same I must be going.

I dunno why, but that just reminded me of a scene in the Simpsons. The "Football in the groin" scene... hehehe.

/agree This is pathetic how people are discouraging new people. To the original poster, ignore 95% of what you read in the Forums. The majority of the people here are bitter, adolescent kids that have nothing better to do. Take the good, ignore the bad.


As for answering your question, Smuggler is still in need of improvement, but it is a fun profession if you can take the good with the bad, which is the answer for all professions since nothing is perfect to anyone.

Umm.. nothing that was said to the OP was false.


We can't Smuggle. We haven't been able to Smuggle for 2 years, and we don't know when or if we'll be able to Smuggle.


What, you want us to lie to the new guy?

How hard would it be to make a Smuggling Terminal or have "random" encounters with NPC's that offer you cash to carry X item from point A to B?

You default on the mission and you don't get paid and maybe end up on the terms.

They can make this "ground to ground" missions or involve JTLS as well, even land on a space station or ship and interact with people there.



I am having a blast being a Master Smuggler despite the irony in my profession, and despite those who cancel out or respec in I will stick with it.

With all that meat - wouldn't it be more of a caserole?
