I couldn't help but notice that Slicing XP isn't in that list at all. That's 1/3 of our overall XP that's wasted. Putting Slicing in the Senses column would not only make sense (as it is governed by luck unless you're using clamps), but would make us viable in Force Sensitivity.

I agree with your logic, but can you explain how this works a bit. Do I do a quest, and then convert some of my current XP into Jedi XP? Should I start grinding some silly spice xp? Do I need any 24 boxes, or do I need to get mastery of one type?

Well, when you get into the FS town, one of the NPC's can not only 'open' your sensitivity trees, but convert your normal XP into the type of FS xp you designate.

For example I change a bunch of spice crafting XP into the FS type of crafting XP.

I think you only need 24 boxes to get 'jedi' status, but I'm no authority on that, seeing as how I've never been a jedi.

I won't see about the revamp on this matter. It can change in the future and it's impossible to say exactly what will happen.

Quite honestly it's too far away to be considering at this point.

So I'm going to plan for the here and now in this instance and I don't want to see smugglers out of anything.

I wouldn't say it's wasted, it's just excess that we have no use for after slicing 4.

I'd like to find a use for it and thats why I'm bringing this up now.

I have been following this VERY closely, and the first question I asked when some of this was discovered was if Slicing XP could be converted. Obviously, the answer was "no" (and DNA Sampling XP does not convert either BTW, so we're not the only ones this time...).

I fully support adding Slicing XP to be comverted to Sense XP. It even makes a bit of sense (no pun intended) as picking the correct wire is something of a Sense-type action.

Please do your best to get this implemented, as you are correct that Persuasion and Luck seem like very Smuggler-ly FS things.

If I'm forced to keep my FS skills (taking away my Triple Master), I'd like to get Ranged Accuracy, Ranged Speed, Ranged Defense, Melee Defense, Vehicle Control, Persuasion, and Luck. I need one other, I haven't decided on, but it may be Melee Speed, since I'll be losing TKA skills to get the SP for the FS skills. Unfortunately, I have no way to get any Sense skills ATM.

ya.. have our slicing go towards senses I would think :-/

we definitely should have access to that tree.

I agree and as others have said Slicing XP should be added to this line. It's the closest thing we have to a sense at the moment without Smuggler XP and come on... Luck? that's all Slicing is atm!!!
