Smugglers fills the "rogue" or "thief" role of classical RPG. Elaborating on this they should get"Highjack Vehicle" and "Highjack droïds" Master perks allowing them to take temporary control of speeders and droid pets by slicing their security control.

Apparently there is a concern of a lack of unarmed skills in this forum. Well, to be perfectly honest, a good thief uses a dagger, which is closer to one-handed than unarmed.

(I'm sure all this has been discussed before).






i seem to remember Han having a vibro dagger in some of the books and even seen it in long shots in the movies

So much for a Smuggler revamp, maybe they should just rename us, it would take less time and be easy to do.
"Useless" would be my first choice as a name suggestion.


of course at this point there is no reason to revamp anything. SOE should just shut the game off.

And lately, I've been reading the Belgariad and Mallorean (series of books), where it seems to me that thiefs prefer to be sneaky and kill up close, but CAN be devastating at range. So let's start form there. I like our pistol shots, they ARE thiefish. A devastating range attack, a KD and a delay all ring true to thieves imho.

Eh. On one hand I agree with a dagger skill but on the other I think brawler is still the best fit. As stated before, I think that a pistol/unarmed combo would be excellent. ESPECIALLY when fighting other unarmed PCs and NPCs.

And this has been said before but...

Selling spices as they are now is like selling cough syrup outside a liquor store. Waste of time and good for a few laughs. Spices should be better than brandy and the like. They are illegal for a reason after all.
