I'm losing it. No really I am! We are useless. We can do many wonderful things (in our eyes) but to the general populace we it's a title and nothing else. Here is what our profession experiences and has experienced on a daily basis.


Our skills vs the customer/opponent


skill: we can make spice...buy it!

smuggler: see my mind go up! (10 minutes later) see my mind go down (dies shortly after)

customer: I hate downers! besides I have chef food and it's better and lasts longer.


skill: we have pistol skills

smuggler shouts: I HAVE A PISTOL! (combat log: 14:32 you shoot at bob but miss, 14:35 you shoot at bob but miss)

opponent: dizzy/kd + I win button 5-20 times (dead smuggler)


skill: slicing

smuggler: Slicing for 5k!

customer 1: Your prices are ridiculous! I hope you die!

customer 2: Can you damage slice this legendary LVA with 2.1 speed and 345-980 damage? (smuggler get's a 35% speed slice and thinks damn that's a good slice but the timing.../groan)

customer 2: YOU RUINED IT! YOU MORON! DIE!!!!!!! DIE!!!!! THIS WEAPON IS WORTHLESS NOW!


smuggler feigns death to get the customer to leave him alone.

Nearby citizens with weapons: Get em! hit em! Dot em! hit em! hit em! break his armor! Make him have black bars for feigning! MAKE HIM SUFFER!!!!

smuggler thinks: ok I'm pretending to be dead and it's not working...


jawa says: those tuskens are mean to us


Please give me some encouragement for I'm discouraged. I'm not going to drop my wonderful skills but IT'S getting to me. I do love the profession don't get me wrong.

My4 steps to being a smuggler:


Step 1:

Do not walk around with a Master Smuggler or Slicer title on... EVER!


Step 2:

Only slice for friends and guild mates, or maybe just friends


Setp 3:

Start some light RPing and make a game out of it.


Step 4:

Once the new smuggler patch comes out, buy your way up you current faction and brag about rank




Welcome to the club, we have jackets.


I will be mailing out "Forgotten Smuggler" jackets to all master smugglers the same day that the Smuggler Revamp hits.

^^This statement was made without knowledge of the smuggler revamp update, and also out of spite, and therefore has no basis for anyone desiring to claim said reward.

/denyservice


They actually notice that they got on someones list. Even better if you can set that a$$hat on a blacklist and Smugglers all over the galaxy do the same.

Would it be possible to make a sticky(one for each galaxy)that lists those players that have had /denyservice pasted on them.


If a player is a real sob to a fellow smuggler then why don't the rest of us show out support for fellow smuggler by also /denyservice to that same palyer. I aiminmg this a thte nasty people and not the idiots that don't knw anty better.


Trash talk during or just after combat is one thing. Abuse is another.


what do you think?

I guess I haven't graduated even though I've been Master Smuggler for a while now. For some reason, it always seems to be the negative reactions that stick in our minds -- the moron who thinks a slice 'ruined' a weapon.


I'd be willing tobet a few cases of molecular clamps that every smuggler here can remember those customers who got exactly the slice they were looking for and responded with a nice tip and recommendations. For some reason, it is always the ______ that stand out.


(btw - I always walk around with my Master Smuggler title unless I'm doing serious hunting)

well im i know content is comming... and i can wait... but im irritated that i have to have 2 basic trees costing 58 skill points and dont get any pistol accuracy, or unarmed accuracy or damage, or even one point of ranged or melee defense, not even a +10 vs stun, kd, dizzy, blind, or posture change.


You would think that a smuggler, aka a jack of all, or an underworld survivalist would have at least a small bit of this...


I would like to see smuggs get +10 melee def, +10 ranged def, and +15 vs all the effects, +40 pistol accuracy, +40 unarmed accuracy. Making us more versitile in a fight especially when we are on our own.
