LOL, well, I have a crate of them, and they definately are furniture. I bought them from a guy selling the new loot - didn't ask who made them. They definately are furniture in a furniture crate, though. Either it's a bug...or a sick joke played on Smugglers.

Yup, just had a smuggler make it. It's furniture that smugglers can craft, How lame. Oh well, sorry guys.
OMFG, what a kick in the nuts
more like a /lowblow with a pre nerf launcher pistol

I'm speechless... Not only do I get to make furniture now, but I've got to kill guys which will give me negative faction for one of the guys I really would have liked to have Smuggled for.
So much for the idea that we were going to become Pirates.
On a somewhat optimistic note, maybe it will have a function later on... with say refining spice instead of crafting it? I dunno, maybe there is some hope in this thing yet... of course a little word on what the hell is going on with it would do us some good.
The whole optimism thing made queasy... not really used to it!

Nevermind what I said... I just saw a screenshot of this thing and it's totally useless as a functional item. So basicly, screw the optimism, now I'm very annoyed.

Ok at the risk of being lowblowed...
Is it soo terrible that they gave us something???
Look at all the loot that you can get that you have to take to a crafter.
So here is a cool little thing that we get to make.
Was i expecting a smuggler revamp hiden in the loot revamp of course not
Why are you getting angry that they gave us something?
Of course if you need to be an arch and a smuggler to make this then I think it is lame.
Can anyone verify if a smuggler can make this on his own?

I can't believe the devs did that, r they trying to piss people off?
I think the thinking went something like this:
Dev1: Those Jedi and Bounty Hunters are really screaming for a nerf on Feign Death.
Dev2: You know who isn't asking for a nerf on Smugglers? The Architects.
Dev1: I know, we really need to get more content into the game for Smugglers so Architects can complain about it.
Dev2: Hmm..Smugglers only craft spice. I don't know how we the Architects could complain about that.
Dev1: Maybe we create a spice schematic that is really a furniture schematic.
Dev2: A spice schematice that's really a furniture schematic! Brilliant!
Dev1: Brilliant!

Lets not make more out of this then what it is, most likely a simple programmingtypo that was not caught. Skill Needed to Craft: 146 and a programmer typed 164. So instead of Furniture II it came out Spices II. We got so much negativity around here, no need to breed more. Just /bug it and move on.
/waves hand - This is not the spice you are looking for.

Anyone have a screen shot of what it looks like? I guess I have not been a smuggler long enough, to not think the idea is kind of intresting. I just hope the "bubble tank" will be used for something down the road like making glitterstim/deathstick/(new master level spice???)
just my two cents

Sorry don't have the link - but there are pictures of most of the new items over in the Architect forum.

Yea, While a brand new spice would be super neato keen, What would be even cooler is if this was a cryptic
preview to the news spice system that results in more varied, and more useful spices. Remember, pretty much
all the stuff they're introducing lately has been "balanced" for the new system and assuming that all our
fears about the devs' attitudes towards us are unfounded, then we can guess that spices will have a pretty
important role down the road. this could be part of it.
Or this could be a bug. But a Bubble Tank sounds like some kind of drug lab gear. So it probably DOES have SOMETHING to do with spices.
Maybe they listened to the "get spices from other sources and 'refine' them" suggestions that have been going around.
In any case, if this is a preview of things to come, does this mean we're still going to be drug dealers?

I didn't know valarian made the Nym up, that ma be a good thing to know, however if you are a TK it can be useful to kill valarians in mass to get some vibro motors that can fit in a VK (while crafting) and give +20 in max damage
