I just want to re-iterate. I had madethisaccount just yesterday and posted in our beta forums for the combat revamp portion of smuggler, to show my approval of the changes. A fellow smuggler asked if i would come to the smuggler forum, and since i am indeed a smuggler in game, i thought what better way to break in my new account. Tiggs offered assistance in this matter. No one had to find me


Iwear comp and get buffs, andentertainer buffs when we hunt nightsisters, but they hit hard and i cantheal any of that


Andwhat attack is FOW?






Force of Will (TKA), when your stats are low FD like normal butthen do FOW, if it works (is chance it will not work) your stats jump back to full. While you can only use FOW once an hour its is great with FD in a tight situation.

I've looked at this thread closely, and feel I have my responce, while it may not sound nice, I will state, that due to the fact you can't hear a tone of voice, written communication loses much context. I'm not hostile at all when writnging, simply giving my fair view of things.

Goliath, welcome to the Smuggler forum. I hope you find you like the community. Have a good one.

Tiggs, I do not mean this in any form of offence to you or Goliath, but how is it a "treat" knowing that one developer out of many plays a Smuggler character, and isn't actually one of the guys that make the decisions on how the professions go, but one of the art developers? I'm almost insulted that you would think that telling us one of the game's developers plays a profession here, as if you and the other devs had to spend a *lot* of time looking for this one man. I mean, other than the fact he's an SOE employee and plays the profession this forum is for, out of all the profession forums in the SWG message boards, there's nothing else to mention.
Maybe I would be excited if someone was introduced that plays a Smuggler, wants to make changes to improve this profession, and is in place to effect said changes; then again, maybe not, 'cause I'm just getting tired of hearing "we'll fix you next", followed by, "okay, this time we will fix you next" which precedes "we'll fix you soon" and then "we'll get to you". As many have said, I see so much wasted potential with this profession, and yet, nothing good is being done.
Like I've said, its nice to see a Dev who actually plays a Smuggler, but untill something starts to positively effect Smuggler, I see no "treat".

Nothing here has excited me, nor angered me. I was slightly annoyed, but that's it.






I have to agree with this post - no offense Goliath but you've entered the realm of some of the most mistreated and cynical people to play the game, and you have a red name. Your work is good, and I am not trying to belittle that - I love the sorosuub and space in general. But Tiggs made this "Treat" post, and sadly, you have no say in our revamp and are not in the position to effect any changes whatsoever. So - its nice to see that a developer is playing a smuggler, but in the grand scheme of things, it changes nothing other than lets us know that we'll have some cool art coming to go along with the nothing we get from the people who are scheduling us for our revamp.


But if you are on my server and I see you in game, I'll gladly go hunting and RP with ya, smuggler brother.

Well welcome Goliath...


That being said I'm sure, since you've been a smuggler for a while now, that you fully realize we don't actually SMUGGLE a freaking thing in this game.


Can you honestly say you see a Smuggler Revamp coming? Coming soon? One that will actually make us what our name implies? Smugglers?


So far NO one from SOE has given us a bit of hope and you're the closest thing to a an SOE employee that might actually understand why we are so frustrated and angry.

I doubt he will be allowed to answer that, even if he could. Hassling him about stuff he have no control over will serve no purpose except drive him away. I see no reason to do that: he play a Smuggler, he belong here.

/agree 100% So what if he is a Dev, he has no control over our re-vamp or profession. Just welcome him into the community he is after all one of us.

No, no...no one wants you to stop posting.


We'd love to have you as a fellow smuggler...though if you read a lot here you'd find the majority of us are rather disinfranchized.


I've been a Smuggler since a few weeks after live and won't change...I'll quit before I drop Smuggler.


You HAVE to admit though we don't smuggle a damnable thing in this game. I fail to see why we're called smugglers actually.


Please keep posting on this board but realize that pretty much the only topics of any note contain cynicism and bile about our plight. I think we all realize that you can't comment in kind though.


Hopefully though what you are doing, and not reporting here, is whispering in the ears of any devs that will listen just how upset and unloved we are.

In this game i have played every single profession (to get my jedi)


Before i even came to work for SOE i struggled with all of the players of this game with variouse issues, but loved it still.


My first character was a smuggler, and he still is to this day, and while i do sympathize with the smugglers plight, i manage to find joy in playing the part, and i can't complain about this until i see it played out.


That being said, if you would ratherI not post at all,I can keep myself in the beta forums. The last thingI want to do is cause undo stress in this community.


If you are willing to accept me as a fellow smuggler player and nothing more, i'll be happy to stay






absolutely. pull up a chair and grab a brandy. glad to have ya

Feel free to keep posting Goliath. Ienjoy seeing a dev commenting on actually playing the game instead of just designing the game.

i agree, im not a smuggler, soim sorryif I dont belong here,but it does seem a bit like most devs dont actually play this game, and know very little about it. This is a nice change.
