And even then not many people can tell that there's much of a difference.



"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

Now does FD at rank 4 prevent black baring? I noticed some people with rank 4 look as if all their bars are empty, yet somone with say the first box still has visible HAM bars. Now having the 4th rank also gives the "Corps of" thing over your head but does that keep said ignoramices from interacting with you? I havnt noticed a difference at all in PvE, just was curious on the effects in PvP between ranks.





IT DOES?!

I was a master smuggler for over a year, then dropped to DF 4, then began slowly shedding skills after I began grinding jedi and dropped to DF 1. I never saw feign fail *ever* until I dropped to DF 1, and then I saw it occasionally--maybe 5-10% of the time, maybe less than that. I used it quite often to take afk breaks while grinding, and occasionally when I acutally needed to escape a death. Never did use it to avoid a Bounty Hunter, though, can't say if that effects it or not.

a "corpse of" showing about our body when feigned? That would be great, but I doubt it is the case, or we would have seen QUITE a big backlash here a few hours after it got put in.

That would make several smugglers VERY happy hehehe

Gonna log in game later and test this.

Well like i said i could be wrong, i could have been looking at somone who was actually dead just didnt clone for 15 min. i didnt hang around to see if he got back up. I am sorry if i caused a fuss. The primary issue i needed addressed and i got was "If there was a difference between FD1-4" obviously there isnt.

The only difference are supposed chances of succeeding that most people don't really see.

As far as I'm aware, you can get completely blackbarred with 1000 battle fatigue even as a master smuggler.

there's no difference between Feign at any level of smuggler, except for the chance of it failing. That's it.

Dirty fighnting increase odds to successfully feign death... No more, no less.
