Has anyone else been noticing the amont of low-> 15% and lower slices?

i've been a Master smuggler for months now and all of a sudden I've been gettin 11% -15% on slices and not just armor. I got 4 in a row of under 15% **edit** is going on?

Nope, mine seem to be in the 25%+ range lately. *enters Smuggler God* No! NO! *ZAP!*

Ya i still get my usual 30% and up, but i was slicinf a friends krayt scatter and WAM 11% spd. i was like **edit** WAS THAT

I sliced 3 rifles for someone the other day and got 18%, 17% and 19% damage slices I was DOH. I only charged 2k each for those.

You just had a bad run, it happens to us all.

Thank God it was a friend and he wasn't to mad, but I thought MS were not supposed to slice under 15?%?

IGN Stonir

I actually got one for 9% several weeks ago.

That had to suck, was it your weapon or someone elses?

If I have multiple bad slices in a row, i'll just stop for the night. Chalk it up to bad luck. Do the same when i'm crafting armor.

The next time someone who is a Master Smuggler gets below a 15% damage or speed slice, or below an 11% effectiveness slice, take a screenshot with the character window up showing you're a Master Smuggler.

Until then, I'm lumping the "lower than 15% " weapon slices in with the "Higher than 35%" weapon slices. Meaning they don't exist.

There are missions in which you "deliver an item while hostiles attack you" in every profession. I still don't consider [Smuggler's Alliance] pilots to be Smugglers, nor 'Smuggling' - at least not any more than Rebel Pilots or Imperial Pilots might sometimes "smuggle", with a lower-case s - JFreeman - 10/6/04

I've yet to get a <15% slice but have gotten some >35% slices, including a 40% encumbrance slice once.

Yesterday I ranged from 17% to 34% slices while handling two sets of armor with tools from the same schematics (not that it matters but it's one less possible variable). I also made sure I used the same mouse, keyboard, and series of user interface strokes. My dog remained at my feet during all slices, and my wife badgered me the entire time to stop playing. So, 17-34% was clearly 100% random.

as master my slices have never dipped below 15%, i dont thin i ever had one as master even, mine typically avg 22% eff 32% encum on armor been as high as 45% and 22% spd and 31% dmg. i can tall sometimes iff i am going to get a low end slice on something, i noticed if its pretty primo in on stat i am more likely to hit the other, almost always happens when someone ask the slicing god for a particular stat but nothing funny going on from what i can see in all me experience

There's a quote about the original design of Galaxies that says it was too much like living the life of Uncle Owen and not enough like the life of Luke or Han Solo.
