Why are we seeing smuggler loot used for slicing in BH missions? That's like saying that Jedi Bounties can be found in smuggling missions...if there were any. =P

Nope, Jedi bounties will be aquired through crafting scout camps, didn't you get the memo?

Of course, isn't that what the description in the Master Box says? I though that was what we got for Master.

You might be on to something. I would very much like to see Jedi bounty marks inside Locked Containers, for example...

in other words:


we at SOE realize that MMORPG is a huge market as indicated by WOW's 2 million subscriber base. with only a subscriber base of 250k people, we feel that SWG can and needs to gain market share. So with the game being out for 2 years and the fact that the remaining veteran subscribers are star wars nerds that have endured this time who for the most part, are not going anywhere, we feel the need to focus on more subscribers. since we are a poorly run company with limited resources, we need to focus on attracting new subscribers at the expense of the veterans who have stuck with us through thick and thin.


dont get us wrong, we still care.

back to the topic on hand. i mean what are the devs thinking? they must have thought that we can continue to create interdependencies across professions by having BHs loot smuggler items which can be given to them for use in slicing.


my counterarguement to that is a smuggler slicing weapons for all combatants creates the interdependency and the need for a smuggler. creating this relationship of smuggler items dropping from BH missions is a redundancy in its intent and makes interdependency less. if smuggler items are considered rare and thus expensive with the slicing process only marginally increases a weapons effectiveness, there is less incentive for smugglers to invest in such things.
