wasnt a master since launch but think i was lucky to be in the states when the game came out so i think i might probably have been the first of a couple UK guys to be playing since launch. Got Master at christmas that year so not qiute launch but a hell of a long time with 1 proff. I aint moving till i get that revamp, if that doesnt cut it then i think i'll probably quit
we've all waited to long for this revamp, i pray they get it right, it certainly looks like it could be worth it

lol no lie! but man this was a depressing read. Truth hurts. I have been a smuggler for a year now and to take it in all at once, instead of forcing it into the deep dark corners of my mind a little at a time makes me want to.... *sob*

It almost makes me want to give up Master Smuggler. Almost. I'm not going to wait for z revamp, and I know other players aren't either. Wanderhome has a Smuggler's Alliance, other server's might as well (I chose not to join as a Novice, now I want to be independant for now). We can't create our own content, but we can still RP. I like being the guy sitting in the back of the cantina, buying and selling spice and slicing stuff.

Man, wasn't it great, the first time whooping someones ass as a smuggler/pistoleer? When they put us in "crowd control" I figured it was just an excuse to make us good at taking down multiple (horribly weaker) mobs, to make us useless in PvP and sticking to PvE... But no! They made it so we actualy can PvP! We have some moves that totally PO's a lot of people when used (stopping shot anyone?) and with some good strategy, we can actualy hold our own. I'm currently a level 74, and I need to work the kinks out of my combat strategy, but I think I will actualy be a good fighter. Here's a tip... Pack a rifle in your armaments... One of those rifles that requires no combat skills, just level... It makes fighter mobs a lot easier when you don't have to alert the whole bunch, and when you have about 30m more distance on your pvp target. Lol, the way everyone else is so pissed off at the CU, I think Pikeman, Pistoleers and Smugglers will be the only ones left. And I'm looking forward to our smuggler revamp. If all we have to do is run away, then we have a complete repetoir of attacks to stun our targets and run away. That will give more meaning to our attacks, and in a way, I think it shows that the Dev's were planning ahead for the revamp and it will actualy be comming.

I just saw this link in someone's sig. I'm not even a smuggler, and I didn't even read the WHOLE timeline, but i tip my hat to you guys. This is like watching the CU happen over a 2 year period. I can hardly believe sliced items aren't ancient relics by now.

And 21 months of game play after the first promise - still no revamp.
Thanks, SOE.

We might be getting a little love in the next publish for slicing weapons and armor. 

Of course we will see if it actually happens or not.

GM hasn't responded to any PM I've sent since the first of the month.
I don't feel good about that.
