the second speed slice adds 25% customization, not 20%. I can't believe i just did this without reading the in game text, but i thought i could have two speed slices and three damage slices from the number on this website... daaaaaaaaang... now i'm stuck with two damage and two speed... and nothing else. =( i would have so much rather seen 1 speed 3 damage and 1 critical... so don't let others make the same mistake! pls fix this typo!

also, it says we can slice bio-linked items? if that is true can you please explain the process because it is not working for a lot of us.

thanks

QFE - I've also just done exactly the same thing, please update the speed slice figure.

So here's one for ya.... how are those of us who were using slicing xp as our only means of converting force sensitive senses boxes supposed to finish those? Am i supposed to drop half my template just to get a skill that serves no other purpose?

Or did "Plan B" not consider that little tidbit? Or were you guys just hoping nobody would notice?

You guys are always screaming about "a level playing field", where you envision a world where there are no rewards for added effort, just bonuses for mediocrity. What, was it too easy for us to sit in the village and grind, trading in as needed? You would never remove DNA Sampling (3:1 conversion) BH investigation xp (1:1 conversion), Political xp (3:1 conversion) or Merchant xp (4:1 conversion) or Wilderness Survival (5:1 conversion). Those are the only ones comparable to the 3:1 ratio slicing USED to have. How is that balanced?

The best i can hope for here is to use my respec to move those 3 boxes to a different tree that takes combat xp, etc. There is no viable alternative. What, after i grind out a tree of scout (that i have to drop USEFUL skillboxes for) am i supposed to make 45 runs to the village to dump it for a measly 10k, or am i supposed to try and solo Rancors? Then am i supposed to pray that double xp lasts long enough for me to re-do my template?

You guys should have pushed the revamp back until you had considered all of the effects the changes were going to have before going live with them. If "Plan A" was un-workable, you should have started from scratch, not pull this system out of the discard pile (where it was put for a reason) and ram it down our throats at the last minute.

I've search high and low - this has been the most informative thread thus far on being a Smuggler.

However, I have gotten some mixed info on trading faction points to others. I wanted to check here to confirm the accuracy of the FAQ that is part of this thread. Can I trust it 100% (90%, 80%, etc).

I'm sure I can, but I just wanted to a fellow smuggler's input on this...I ask cuz I've been told that as a Colonel you do not have a FP charge as the FAQ mentions there is a 1.177:1 ratio to all FPs traded.

Thank you.

Now I don't feel like I wasted my time making a nice calculator in Excel to help generate a price on my clients requested FPs and vise versa - how many FPs I can give them with the amount of credts they have.
