Some quick thoughts on this...







Yep same with me, I love sneaking around a hot city when I have other things to do. It's like a subplot and when I sneak into a star port right past 2 Imps I also feel more like a smuggler.But for me as a triple master I cant heal myself and I dont wanna blow threw my high end food so that's why Ive been "popin" spice like candy.

Keep track of your spice sales guys, see if they are going up. Over allit might not be a bad idea to start marketing spice as the combatants "quick fix" during casual travel/gaming. I think with a revamp of spice we may seespice actuallybecome high demand in this new GCW.

It might be a good idea to startgiving awaya little bit of pixie in cantinas that are subject to raids to get the word out. "You aren't buffed? Here, you might get some use out of this!"


"You want more? Look, I've only got enough on me for myself. You'll have to check my vendor--I'm selling it by the crate."

My brother put up a gernade vendor and threw some of my spice on there. Just the other day he said it ran out. So maybe there is a change in the winds here....


/whisper Hey, you gonna pass that "j" over here?

I'm in this for the Experience, not the XP.

Fighters fight.
Crafters craft.
Healers heal.
Smugglers do not smuggle.

When I mastered back in Oct. of '03 I only sliced and sold fp, I never wanted to craft spice(it just bothered me) also I never found a market to sell enough to make a good profit.But since late Febuary I've been getting asked more and more if I have spice. My Slicing jobs are still the same,several million a month, my fp selling hasgone dead since JTL hit live, but my fencing spice is now making me a good couple hundred-thousand now.

So yeah my main spice buyers are useing for travel, but not too much for combat. I hope the trend sticks, more money in my pocket is always a good thing.

hmm... i guess i'll have to bring another crate of Promotional Pixies along with me, and pass them to everyone i slice for


don't have the Skillpoints to own a vendor tho, and my guild is kinda dead...


luckily, there's still the bazaar


(am thinking of 3k for 5, and 5k for 10)



oh, and is that j still alive?


*gets out his Food and Chemical crafting tool, and starts with the "J-procedure"*
