I was lurking in the BH forums- where there is turmoil over not having to attain those extra 3 lines of Scout- Yeah, I know. I can't believe it either. Check out JustG's response:

Folks,
I feel that Talks is getting a bad rap here... one he does not deserve. He has been nothing but an awesome representative for your profession.
This was not something that Tanks brought to us, this was something that we have been considering as long time. This was something that we can do immediately to alleviate some of your pain.
I have been reading your boards for quite some time, and your top bugs and issues are still going to be dealt with, albiet at a pace that will allow us to continue with our long-term plans for the game.
We want you guys to be fully empowered in keeping the scum of the universe in check... Jedi or not... and we will get there. This is a start.

Awwwwww yeah, ladies! It's ON!!!

Here are a few things that the new 30% Free MBHs can do...
MBH/MCH:
This guy is a badass and has some mean friends- He can sic a Toxic Merik Battle Lord on you andtwo other CL 10 pets (now I'm talkingnatural pets- not the BE'd ones which would allow him to pull out bigger and badder monsters w/armor resists). ThisBounty Dude could have his petsall over you while hebleeds you with hisCarb from a distance.
Something to think about is: "How many of them explode-a-droids would a MBH/MCH be able to pull out at one time?" If it were me- I would sic my Merik on you and explode two droids on ya while you were busy trying to shake off the Merik's poison. But that's just me.
MBH/MP- MBH/MC- MBH-MR
Yeah, the true Ranged Master. If a MBH masters oneof the ranged elites (Pistoleer, Carbineer or Rifleman) they do become a force tobe reckoned with. This Bounty Hunter would have some decent defenses and CRAZY weapon mods like +180 Carbineer Acuracy- but the best combo would be MBH/MP allowing for the fastest most deadly shots around (without tapes).
BH/Dabbler
This is the REAL fear-
A smart Bounty Lady might switch it up on ya take the best of the BH pistols line- throw in some pistoleer and smuggler's DF and you might be on the receiving end of Last Ditch at the speed cap (that is if they don't move LD to master).
In essence, as of Friday, a BH title is a scary thing to be on the wrong side of if you are not a jedi.

All the talk of changes is great, but let's all be realistic here. We are not going to get a revamp until at LEAST early 2005. That's more than 6 months away from now.
Why?
The revamp isn't happening until after the Space Expansion. The current target for release of the Space Expansion is "Fall 2004". That puts it right around October-November, in time for the Christmas buying season.
This means the revamp won't even be considered until January of 2005. And we all know that month will be reserved for fixing major bugs with JTL. So I say the revamp will not officially occur until March of 2005.
Now, if you are still excited that the Smuggler profession is getting a revamp in 7-8 months, then you have more optimism in your personality than I do. <grin>

Depends what the payout is for killing a smuggler 
If its comparable to jedi bounties (which it shouldnt imo) then expect us to get into some nice fights.
