Looks good, its every thing I wanted to know about Smuggling when I started.
The only thing I saw that may be wrong is this:
"In order to purchase faction your GCW status must be Specal Forces (PvP enabled) "
I will have to look tonight when I get home but I know when I got a bugged quest I dropped rebel and was going to rejoin to reset the quest. I purchased 250 FP to rejoin. If you mean that once you have joined a faction you can now only buy FP if you are SF then mybe add that.
I buy faction as a combatant all the time. I can only delegate if I'm Special Forces, but it's not required for the purchase.

Oh one last thing I wanted to know which is not clear in the FAQ is how the % increases are applied.
If for instance you get an 8% damage increase on a weapon, will it give the weapon 8% increase on the Min and Max values?

Dont suppose anyone knows the answer to my above questions in which i guess ought to be in the FAQ?
- Does the slicing need to be done in one session? If not I assume it can be continued by another smuggler?
- In the FAQ, its says 8% is the max slice, is that addition to the 2% and 4% or what it ends up being.
I can answer those two:
It needn't all be done in a single session - I put a level 2 damage slice on my HLC, then after finding an ICB the next day, I did a level 3 damage slice and added level 1 slices for speed and critical. I don't see any reason why all slices would have to be done by the same smuggler, given that.
As for the 8%, that's the end result. It is not cumulative with the 2% from level 1 or the 4% total from level 2. It goes 2/4/8%. Given the resultant increase I saw in the DPS, it would have to affect min/max damage.

AHA! That explains it, I was wondering why I once got 1300-something FP at a time and hadn't been able to figure it out.
Thanks for the good advice, I'll always make sure to buff first from now on! ![]()

I feel like I've been beaten to the post somewhat after seeing Balzan's post, but anyway, here's the new Smuggler FAQ I've been working on. Please take a look and help me tear it apart/add whatever's missing

The information on Feign Death is out of date.
Feign Death in PVE breaks aggro now. Targets only re-aggro you when you stand up if you are in their aggro range if you led them away and then FD and they go back to the lair, they don't charge after you when you get up like they used to pre CU.
Feign Death does work in PVP. I use it to break the opponents attack. While Feigned you can no longer be griefed or incapped. The opposing force can't even select you to attack.A Jedi has used a skill to pull me out of FD.
