LOL that's funny!


Well, I originally started going Smuggler for the RP. My character has kind of gotten a reputation for being able "aquire" stuff that my guild wants, whether it's information, gear, or contacts. While that has nothing to do with the profession, it fits the profession's RP. Since I recently mastered pistoleer, I've come to enjoy the RP even more, now that I can be a 'gunslinger' and whatnot in my title as well as 'rogue' etc. Plus, now that I'm a master pistoleer, I feel like I can actually do something in combat. I know we have cool specials, but since we get no pistol mods, I got very tired of sucking in combat compared to my BH, Pistoleer, TKA, and Rifleman guildmates.


Also, having loads of muon and being called 'papa spice' by some of the wimminfolk in the guild is pretty funny.


And I like being able to help my pals out by slicing their stuff. Sometimes I do feel like a slicing whore, though... but that's another post

I like being able to tell people "no". Like when they try to haggle for a 2k slice not wanting to pay you 4k.. Go find a grinder MSand leave me be you cheapskate non smugs.

yea, professionnal smugglers are quite rare, I like a lot of things in that profession (I think it's my favorite one with WS, after I tried a bunch, like all melee but pikes, all ranged but BH, some crafting, CH, BE etc...), I'm addicted to slice (if I don't slice for 1 day I feel bad), and I like the fact that I can actually PLAY THE GAME, wich means I don't have to run missions for my $$$, and I can go, hang out with friends, meet new people, shop, stock my vendors, advertise etc...

I love it because when in a group with two toehr people much stronger than me, I can still survive where they die by using feign death ^^


An then i get bitching rights while waiting for them to get back from the cloner hehe....

ROFL! I guess someone else doesn't like soloing anything in the game since they gave me a poor rating on my post.




Because they don't want fd to get nerfed. You can't solo anything, you can survive anything. Try to solo a krayt with master pistoleer/master smuggler and no other skills.
My favorite thing about being a smuggler has to be...The Master Smuggler title, the specials, and of course, the roleplayability. Couldn't choose one, sorry.

I dig RPing my smuggler while I slice and sell faction. If i get one of those random tells from an unknown for slices, instant RP time.

As I waited for this thread to come up after I clicked on it, I was thinking 'What IS the best thing about being a smuggler?' And... you know, aside from the zen of BEING a Smuggler... the best perk that comes with it is feign death... I'm with you there, Skipper.

My poor level 55 AS/MS keeping three 80+ Black Suns conc'ed or panicked while the rest of my group beats on a fourth. Then pointing and laughing at them in the middle of combat.


Last-Ditching an opponent in PvP, incapping us both, then having my opponent gripe that LD is an unbalanced ability.

Variety. There's a large spread of game experiences we can enjoy with just one profession.
