Oh god, don't go Jedi.


That being said, Ranger can pretty fun. I did the tracking line in Ranger once upon a time. The tracking is really cool. Spending a lot of time out in the wilderness with your camps is fun too. Combine tracking with your upgraded harvest abilities and you make make a pretty decent living on hides and meat too. Unfortunately, unless something has changed recently, trapping xp is broken and you'll either have to drop all your skills besides ranger (obviously not much of an option because you won't be able to kill anything) or do a grind that takes as long as Jedi.


Creature handler, while currently borked and not terribly effective, was always fun in the past. There are currently a lot of new changes on Test Center too, so it may be useful again in the near future. Imean, I still wouldn't expect to stand a chance in PvP, but ordering your pets around (and keeping them alive) in PvE combat is much more engaging and tactical than just spamming specials.


Whatever you decide to do, I would recommend dropping smuggler until its fixed (never) and not going Jedi. As of why not to go Jedi, please refer to Exhibit A.

that sucks.



I give up. I'll play as long as I can be interested- but I am NOT going to count on, believe in, trust, look forward to, listen to or entertain any mentions of Smuggling from now on- Unless I'm going to implement it myself....




and I just might too. Hmmpph!








Welcome back.


I've never replied to any of your posts before, but it irritates me that something has made you this bitter. Not at you -- at SOE.


Before the CU, I combed these boards trying to figure out what would be a good profession to complement my smuggling. Because of your posts and enthusiasm, I decided to swap pistoleer for BH, and pick up a bit o' commando. You made it sound super-fun... and it has been, except that I cannot smuggle.


Then when they were going to "fix" our concussion shots, which were handy as they were for PVE, I was furious. But I read your posts saying, hey, this could be a good thing and thought, this guy usually seems to know what he's talking about, so I decided to give it a chance. Now of course, even the daze has a time limit, so it seems just... useless. I guess they figured they would bring it in line with the rest of the profession.


My point is... you've always seemed very positive and logicalin your outlook. I know that if you're not happy with things... then I'm not just being reactionary, things are really bad.


Not that I really needed you to say so in this instance. It's just disheartening to think that SOE has even embittered the smuggler cheerleaders such as Veela and yourself.


Okay. Now I'm going to go back to not lurking on the smuggler forums, for my sanity. For a few days, at least.
