ever since launch i thought "Fixer" was a stupid title... am i the only one who'd like to see it replaced with "Swindler" or something of the like?

It makes sense, but it is often misconstrued. I have no problem with it. Swindler would be even more misguided when you think about the tree it's associated with.

"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

true, itwould be kinda misleading, but it'd be kinda tough to come up with a title that fits the tree.this is an example of a topic that comes out of a guy at 4:30 am after being up for 2 and a half days...

Regarding the original poster, I always thought "fixer" was a little weird/ Maybe "fast talker" or "negotiator" but i dont think i would even wear it then

hey at least its not "Expert Smuggler"....

edit for spelling

Fixer has allways made sence to me. The guy you go to when you need something, a problem solved. The guy who can get you things. Kinda a mafia sounding title. But quite honestly, my favorite smuggler title has to be Fence. 95% of people don't get it but that just makes it better for me.

Heh, I think I'm in a small minority who does not really care for the Scoundrel title idea.

Half of the Smuggler titles make no sence. "Fixer" sounds like it belongs in the Artisan branch and "Fence" sounds like it belongs in the Fencer tree. I'd really like to see something more... Smuggler-like. "Pirate", "Swindler", "Hi-Jacker", even "Scum" would be fun.
Or how about "Scruffy-Looking Nerf Herder"?

ROFLMAO too funny...

Why no "Scoundrel" title? I never figured that one out. I guess it just goes to show how "out of touch" the Dev's are with Smugglers. Someone pleasegive them a Han SolotrilogyEU book anyone from the set would work.
