Smuggler Archive

I've been a Master Smuggler/Master Bounty Hunter for well over 3 months now. Have to say, I was pretty glad of my choice when I was amoungst the first to descover the BH marks regularly dropping slicing components ... though it obviously wasn't the reason I became a BH in the first place as I'd been an MBH for a while beforehand I just like keeping a finger in non-jedi hot pots.

I have to say though.. my MBH/Smuggler char is about 5 times more powerful (atleast) than my Pistoleer/Smuggler char. The cool thing with MBH is that you still arnt too bad with a pistol .. lose out on accuracy but I make up for that with CA's, BE clothes and dueterium.. thoughI have to admit I find myself using my proton carbine more than my pistol these days, though my baby DL44 with 960 max damage and 0.75 attack speed is still my weapon of choice in PVP

I went Smuggler/BH with my first respec and never went back.

I wish I could, since you get other nice loot as BH (One guy I know loots loads of CAs and AAs that are worth millions.)

However I don't want to lose Master Smuggler and I love Rifleman! I've been those two ever since the CU, and I just have no way to keep both and get BH 3xxx or 4xxx, let alone even think about MBH. It's a real struggle on what to do....

No i like my template but instead prefer to have a network of BH that come to me with there loot. I give em a good price and everyones happy. Whats great is i am really enjoying my game because of moments like that. I feel like such a scoundral but not quite a smuggler yet

BH missions are not the fastest or best way to get these tools. Just about any higher level NPC can drop them at a good rate (any "mission" based NPC on any planet pretty much)

WT F are you smoking? I'd call Nightsisters a higher level NPC, and they drop them about one out of every 100... I can average 1 slice comp every 15 minutes doingBH missions, that's FAR more than I've found any other way. I'm probably finding more in one night now than I would in an entire WEEK without BH.

Heh. I'm not a full temp BH, but being the only smuggler in a nearly all BH guild, I'm fat and happy with components. Also allows me to offer slices for 40k-60k. Lol

Sorry to interrupt but as a BH, non smuggler myself, I might go the other way and drop some skills here and there to become smuggler/BH ! At least I'll get a use of all those things I looted.

That said I might wait til you guys get a revamp !

By the way, it's not the first time I say it, but even not being a smuggler myself I can't wait (though yes, not as much as you guys, of course) til you get this loooooooooong awaited revamp : really time to get Solo out of the Carbonite here !

there will be no revamp per se

it's been moved to 'long term implementation'. I'm sure we will se jedi revampes 2 and 3 before we see the smuggler revamp.

I'm not sure if I'm the only one with this problem, but all I loot from these damn missions are Finely crafted toolkits, Mandalorian Intraframes, and Bug juicygoodfornothing food! I got 1 delicate trigger, 2 cores, and 1 trandoshan Intraframe, BAH. I think I get more force crystals then ca and I've never got an aa. I'm 3444. Am I the ONLY one with this problem? I have so many damn FCTK's that I'M giving them away...sheesh!

Heck, all I get at MBH / MSmuggler is ICBs, Mando infraframes, delicate triggers, and the other goodies that sell for cashola. I really don't many jars of bugs, maybe one out of every 20. Every now and then you get the superdrop, 3-4 items from a single mark.

I had one that dropped a CA, ICB, Aakuan ring, and crystal all from the same NPC. I kept the ICB and ring, the others are being sold.
