I have a question. Is slicing really wanted now? If so how about everyone interested in Smugglers getting the slicing ability that was discussed in concept refusing to slice anything.


Maybe if enough people get upset at not being able to get their gear sliced the developers will actually care to change slicing.

I'm not a smuggler (never have been) and my bh alt has looted a bunch of smuggler stuff but I'm not even sure what it's worth so it just takes up space in my inventory (which i barely have any room for anyway) but none of that is the reason that I'm signing this petition (even though I doubt it will do anything since the smuggler community is so small and soe is used to giving them the shaft).


the reason that I'm signing is because I'm pretty tired of all this loot.


I want to make a weapon..


Pre cu we had lotsa loot schematics... if I wanted to craft a high end weapon all i had to do was pay mega credits or craft a weapon for someone and i got the remaining uses of the schematic.. well then the amount of uses went down and the original looter wanted the weapon and it was tough to even see a loot schematic and turned weaponsmiths into crafting monkeys that if they wanted to craft the weapons were basically at the service of the looter (unless they were in a big guild).


Post CU Most of my weapons turned to junk and it started out that I cant make the best weapons possible. all i could hope to do was make my best weapons and well couldn't really compete with the looted ones.


then they increased the Krayt loot drops well that was all fine and dandy but at the time half my friends and guildies had left the game so me a Lvl 30 crafter with minimal combat skills had no chance looting Krayt anything.


So then the Krayt gets better and then inorder to keep the BH's in the game (they were all threatening to quit because the jedi could finally grind without being hunted) because now theBH'shad nothing to do.


So then to keep the BH's busy they introduce the Power Cells and Reinforced Casings. and so that they dont have to drop all the time they put in the smuggler loot too.


Sure BH's and smugglers should work together right?


So if you read this far you might see a trend here... but what happens is that now once again the Weaponsmiths have to rely on the BH's so that they can be crafting monkeys for them. Or get a BH alt or lotsof BH friends and the same thing is happening to the smugglers..


Hey SOE here's a thought..


stop the cycle of loot, Fix the bugs from day one, and add some more content to the game (and dont charge us for another theme park).

A long, long time ago I suggested loot drop tools (as in clamps and knives) that would increase chances of a better slice under the OLD system. I see they took the idea, bastardized it, and put in this new system which sucks big donkey nuts.

I thought the NGE couldn't be any worse than the CU, but I was wrong.

You mean the "new and improved" and "more interactive and fun" steaming pile of a slicing system that bases nothing on actual skill?


You mean that slicing system? Yah I don't count that as a Smuggler "improvement" or "upgrade". I consider that a..... well like I stated above, a big, hot, steaming pile of crap!
