I was walking around, and I happened across a jedi gank group. Me being covert I was just walking by, but as groups like to do, the picked on the lonely imp walking by. I decided to go back and forth with them a little, hey I rarely get to put my underworld 1 lexicon to work these days.
After being called a coward, I got a great idea... so i ran to the recruiter and went overt. Those buggers were chomping at the bit, seeing my name flash. I calmly equipped my plasma flamethrower and stepped up to the plate. See jedi are funny, they only operate well when they are able to feel each others breath, I guess they are pack animals. Well, right as I went overt, I hit them with concussion shot from just out of their reach. All of them, yes in a matter of seconds all of them were frozen by concussion shot. I had to seal the deal fast, so i promptly typed /rude Did a dance /burstrun to my parked speeder and escaped to the wilderness. They probobly chased after me, but we all know the hardest thing to find is a smuggler who doesnt want to be caught

Lol. Nice.

I'm supprised the gank squad didn't form up around you while you were flashing. That'd fit in prime lamer fasion along with load gankers.

If that got you aroused...I was imagining what will happen if capital ship boarding missions ever become a reality. in such Close quarters, Master smuggler commandos would literally shred through people(provided AOE is fixed). We could line up and just flame a hallway with one messing, one using a kd, and one using a damage strike. It would be like a nerfherder bbq...

I want to see a screenshot of this.



Get 3 BH's with commando in a triangle around the jedi in the middle of theed.



Have one BH/Smuggler root the jedi and have the commandos fire him up with flames.



Get me a screeny of that. That would be fantastic.

I'd think BH would need sneak/counter also, but that's just me

Ranger/Scout = outdoor stealth


SL = group outdoor stealth?


Smuggler/BH = indoor stealth


That could bring about some interesting facets to the game.

Yes I love my shiny new acid stream rifle. Nothing better than fireing that baby off with underhanded shot then switching to concussion shot and seeing a whole group of rebels fall on their backs followed by multiple +root+


Smuggler Commando is far the King of Crowd Control.


On a side note I was able to play tag with 3 Jedi with Smuggler rifleman. I had them on a merry chase around theed. I couldn't dent them of course, however I would root two of them, kite the other one for a bitthen root him, hop on my bike that I had placed before hand andfly off only to attack from another direction. I was alot of fun for about 30 minutesbefore they gave up took their ball and left

You know, now that stuff like force cloak, conceal, and whatever other ranger ability gives Invisibility, I am wondering why smuggler doesn't have some sort of "sneak" ability. Face it, underworld and stealth should go together.


Also, beacause we have inviso in the game, I wonder if we need to have some sort of counter to it. I guess the counter should to go classes like Ranger, Scout and SL.







i think we should be able to "forge our indentification"


in other words, a temporary name change. just in appearance. your name appears above your head as something totally different.


of course a good Roleplayer doesn't pay attention to the names floating above peoples' heads. but it seems most RPG players aren't Roleplayers.

How far into commando do you have to go to get some cool guns?

As we speak, I am posting in my galazy trade forums, offering my services as a "root" to any BHs that would like to go SF and hunt jedi. I am offering my services for free for the moment - to relieve some pent-up frustration.
