Thread: note to self slicing 2 is the suck!

On the west side of the bank, there are mission terminals, On the north and south sides of the bank there are respawning thugs. If you run out of respawns, hit the thugs behind the starport or in front of the cantina.Basically, this is an attempt to maximize your time by Slicing terminals while farming for locked containers, while being near the bank to check for any containers for sale.Anyway, it's still a grind no matter how you do it, but if you dont want to spam, then that's the way I would recommend. (Oh yeah, ask friends for help too)
ok thnaks ill give it a go

know how you feel, Im on slicing 2 atm. Slicing is the only thing stopping me from master now ><
you could always buy the containers off vendors, though now people sell them for 10 to even 15k.....
Think once i master my container slicing price will be 50k per...
Hey howd this paying for useless junk thing start anyways?
My prices are 20k per sliced container, or I offer to buy it off them for 5k (to give to the next novice smuggler I see.) If master smugler just band together and charge the hell out of people to open the containers then maybe we can help drive prices back down, or convince them to hand them over to novice smugglers.
No dude no.
It is not "is the suck!" it is "is teh 5uck!"
I was thinking of offering people a free slice for the container, and then giving the container to a novice smuggler that wasn't spamming every second in front of the starport.
I think a free slice for a container is a good way to get them in to the right hands, but the distribution will be the hard part.
I found Slicing 2 unbelievably easy, but unbelievably expense.
First, I cleaned out my own stock of containers, six in all, a good start.
Second,I went to Bestine, and did a planet search for locked containers on the bazaar, because a smuggler would not be spamming in a starport to commit an illegal act, it's just not roleplaying now is it. WhenI found the majority of locked containers it turned out to be in AH, so I hopped on a speeder and retrieved (I bought them from Bestine terminal). By then, halfway through slicing 1.
Thirdly, used the AH to do another planet search in case more newbies have added containers. Then I did a galaxy search and found a large concentration of them in Coronet, so I buy em all and go retrieve them.
After I'd had them I found my bank balance lighter, with only 50k left. Luckily a guild owed me 200k for a loan I'd given him to buy him armour so that helped, plus the discovery of one purple force crystal made it worthwhile. I hit slicing 1 and and well into slicing 2.
That was saturday, for the last two days I simply picked up locked containers where I could and simply sliced a terminal everytime I passed, and by early tuesday I had maxed out slicing 2 with roughly the same amount in the bank balance as I did before I started, plus I managed to sell a bunch of the containers and contents.
*cry*
ive found one store that sells em for 5k, most sell for 10k an some dirty bastards sell em for 15k ><
