Since I'm sure you aren't providing these to your slicing customers without a serious markup, I'm sure that (like most smugglers), you prefer if your customer provides the ICB. You may not have noticed, but you don't get a lot of Chefs, Tailors and Dancers requesting Tier 3 Damage slices.


And some of us are both Smuggler and BH (and I mastered both over a year ago), so I'm pleased that the slicing tools are dropping on my missions - it allows me to lower my prices and helps to discourage price gouging.


I'd love to see Smugglers get the long-promised love they deserve - but what do you care what BHs get from their missions? Smugglers can't wear BH armor anyhow, unless they're certed for Assault from Commando, Squad Leader or Bounty Hunter.

I'm sorry if my post sounds negative to BHs, but you all have things really good now in terms of profit generation. You get paid to take out marks, they drop new armor schematics which go 1-3mil a piece and you're looting the hottest weapon slice component arounnd not to mention other types of sweet loot like CA/AA. My problem is that it'sunbalanced right now how much coinyou cangenerate from your profession compared to smugglers. You have esentially become the middle-men now in the slicing business which cuts into a smugglers profit.


I know you didn't ask for this and I don't blame this profession for the total-hookup the devs have thrown your way, I blame them.

Sorry you guys dont have your missions and crap yet. I think they gave us BHs nice loot missions so we keep off the Jedi. Most of us really didnt want this pub, I mean its nice and all, but we would have rather seen more balance issues addressed, amoung other things. It looks like BH or Jedi is the only end game atm




No need to apologize. We don't hold any anomosity for another profession getting dev love (well ok, maybe Jedi). At least someone is getting it. Hopefully soon it will be our turn. Thanks for the support.

well, i wouldn't go that far. there is another profession i think that has snugglers beat when it comes to needing love.....

I wouldn't say Ranger needs it more, let's conceede to say as much as Smuggler. I mean I know our traps and trapping line is still freakin borked as hell. But at least they fixed out camo\mask scent issues (they at least said they have, haven't actually been able to test it though). And as a Ranger I can still, track, stalk, kill, and harvest creatures. I can make upwards of a mil a week with my Ranger if I really try.

Technically yes. When we track a creature it gives us their direction and range.


..........AHA! Got you on that one.

But that was my point, rangers can range, smugglers can't smuggle
