I'm working up on Master Smuggler, but right now I'm a Master Musician, Brawler 3000 Marksman 0102 I think. I need to get at least Novice Smuggler soon-ish...

Hey SBRD0C, what did you take in the pistoleer line? Did you just go up the Pistol Stances and Grips to have Fan Shot, or did you spread your points around?


Also, did you go up to Survey IV, or only go up the Engineering line in the Artisan profession?


I'm considering doing Droid Engineer myself, but right now I have gone up the Ranged Support line in Marksman, and in order to get up to Survey IV, I'd have to drop all of the Ranged Support. I'm not sure how helpful those skills are for me though. Anyone know if the benefits from the Ranged Support line are worth keeping? Or should I drop them to get up to Survey IV if I'm going the Droid Engineer route?


And also, what are other people's opinions of where I should put points in PIstoleer? Is going up the Pistol Grips tree to get Fan Shot the only viable solution for someone who isn't going to master Pistoleer?





Right now my pistoleer is 0044, once Ihad master but I had to drop 2 trees in order to have sp for all of DE. with this I have about 3 SP left.. enough for ranged spt 1 maybe but thats about as good as it gets.

I did rifleman with smuggler but it's damn well to boring. If I ever get bored of combat PvP (already bored of PvE) I wouldn't mind trying master musicain with smuggler, I'd love to own my own sleezy cantina






I'm a Master Smuggler / Master Musician ... I really like the combo.


I was surprised actually how much I like musician. It's nice to have such a purely social profession to fall intowhen you just want to waste some time NOT grinding somethingor hunting something or looking for something or crafting something .....


I like to sneak into a cantina on a starter planet after some smuggling and join the low level musicians ... adding an instrument to the band they wouldnt have had otherwise. I've met some great folks and had some hillarious SWG moments while chatting away in the band. Usually I try to do a little RPing ...maintaining that I've just got back from some "business" with "an angry bothan" concerning a late shipment or some other adventure -a shady smuggler...and this musician thing is just a habbit I indulge in at times.

Master Smuggler/Master Merchant 0404 Pistoleer is what I'm aiming for.

I think I have the rarest combination:


Master Smuggler

Master Image Designer

Pistoleer 0 0 4 4


It's pretty fun in that you can have the smuggler skills ready for the revamp, still be useful in PVP raids for disarming bases, and while you are not the best fighter in a battle you can help out pretty well if you play like a thief and guard your back.


And Image Design gives you a great in with people. When getting a group is slow you can hang out in the Image designer tent, and while you earn credits you can chat with people and find out what various groups are doing for fun. A great path for finding new adventures.

I used to be master smuggler / merchant 4044 / master artisan

but then I just switched to master smuggler / master pike(wo)man / TKA 4004 / pistoleer 0003 capped melee defense, higher pistol speed and high ranged defenses, so it's cool...

I'm Master Smuggler, Master Pistoleer and 0110 Commando at the moment. I'm thinking of dropping the Techniques tree in Pistoleer (since I already have all the specials I need for the LP) and picking up the Flamer tree and Novice Medic. The Launcher Pistol is pretty awesome with Pistoleer and the Dirty Fighting specials. For participation in big groups I'm going for the Flamer/Feign Death combo.

I am with those saying that TKA is too valuable to give up. With how weak pistols are and how useless most of the Pistoleer/Smuggler specials are(or have become)TK is the only real damage dealing class I have.


Now, if they fix up the Pistoleer/Smuggler specials to the point they are useful then I will most likely drop TK and invest the points into other fun/useful professions.

Master Smuggler/Pistoleer.

Soon to be 4/4/4/0 Fencer on top of that for defenses.

By the time my template is done and Master is dropped I'll be Dirty Fighting/Master Pistoleer/4304TKA/4440 Fencer.
