You cannot speak from experience when this has never been inserted into this dynamic before.- You just invalidated your statementhere with this comment below in concerning the SWG aspect. mds248 was referring to folks that play similar MMORPGS that have loot based systems like this.


Armorsmiths nd WEaponsmiths have bee using looted components since forever and they have only made those weapons/armor more desireable to the buyers. They increase the quality of the item - and now they are increasing the quality of the slice. . What makes the Smuggler different from a WS or AS now?


So from an "experienced" Armorsmith's point of view - the looted slicing components will just make things more valuable. Without taking into consideration of the %s.- Very true. Thosed based in large combat oriented guilds will be rolling in the credits before long.


And if you think Peko-Peko feathers or GDK Scales are easy to get loots - well they arent. And all they do is make the armor better - the same will happen for slicing.- Bad comparison.....getting Peko Peko feathers is nothing compared to walking into the Avatar.


I don't see why people can't get their heads around that. -Its not that folks can't see what they are trying to do, its that they don't agree with it, and they have every right not to like if and voice there concerns.

Mark my words, if this goes live I give it 3 months before the "norm" will be to have to have the "high end" components or nothing at all because of all the farming that will occur

Maybe a Jedi reported me because I compared us to them.




More likely because you're not posting in pink.... just a thought.





ROFL.


I love you guys. Angus, Hotdog, Keck, and of course you too Veela. You guys are like mirror images of my thoughts opinions, and sometimes attitude. You're just so much fun to post with.


But I do have to declare that I am the best looking one out of us all. Sorry.



Just thought I'd throw that out there.

I'd like to thank GM first off, for being there for our profession in whatever way he can be.

Now, here's why I support the new system.

The slicing improvements have been "Improved across the board" as GM said. Meaning a high end slice will be that much better.

You will still be able to slice low end slices without trouble, and midrange slices will require either some basic looting OR a small investment. OR people can provide their own components.

High end looting. Rare components = HUGE profit if you loot them yourself, increased profit if you simply buy them, OR people can supply them themselves.


The Key to remember is, "People who want the very best possible, will pay whatever it takes"



It's an appealing system, I hope people will give it more of a chance.

Yah, after what Veela said in another thread and the points you make as well, I am starting to like the idea.

If you don't want me to "play the forums," then I suggest you make time playing the game more rewarding and less repetitive than "playing" here!
READ THIS before telling me I cannot complain about Smuggler
