"just wondered why you seem to be set on turning smugglers into nothing but mere slicers
1: The underworld tree is largely useless anyway so no change there
2: With the last publish chef rework you have very effctively killed off the spice market almost every one i have spoken to who was Muon dependent for thier skillz, ie teras kasi ,riflemen and all types of medic now use brandy and canapes (i include myself in this i am a rifleman as well as master smuggler )
3: As a master smuggler (a pistol dependent proffesion ) i use almost exculsively a Republic Blaster i see that in the upcoming publish this weapon will be taken away from me unless sacrifice some of my rifle skillz to take novice pistoleer, i had to get a lot of pistol experience to get master smuggler i think we have earned the right to use both the republic blaster and the dx2 with out taking a completely new skill.
4: I also see that it is gonna be impossible to use the /panicshot delay to do anything other than run away, thus removing one of our best combat tactics :ie knockdown, delay, last ditch.
so there we go it would seem that we have had spice removed, our pistol skillz rendered effectively useless and an underworld tree that was neva any real use in the first place
This leaves us with the slicing tree which i know is very frustrating for alot of us as we are still restrained by a the completely random nature even at master level ( i dont know how some of you other master smugglers feel, but i know that i feel incredibly guilty when confronted by a new player who has worked very hard to afford his first set of composite only to be told that you have sliced the whole lot for effec and he cant wear it )
now i understand that you may be worried about the rapidly increasing numbers of smugglers that have risen of late and are trying to limit that with out a direct cap but plz bear in mind that there still some players out there who like myself have no interest in the whole holo jedi thing and wanted to play smuggler (Han fan not luke fan ) right from the start and neva intend to drop this skill
i enjoy SWG one of the best games i have ever played but unless something changes for the better in the profession that i love i am seriously thinking about cancelling my subscription and i am a ware of a number of sugglers who feel this way and do even more so after reading details of the upcoming publish "
Not that there will ever be an answer to this but hey we can live in hope

"Third nerf? I thought this was the second one with the FD nerf being first? Was there another?"
Yep, way back when lowblow was the first nerf.

I think it's fairly obvious that nerfing Smuggler will ruin many player's experience, and destroy the allready lame balance of power in the galaxy. I have a gaming orginization of thousands of players, and will begin to boycott this game if such silliness comes to pass. Not that this will matter of course.
