Am i the only one who gets annoyed with how people act when you use Feign Death?

Examples of times i find Feign Death useful:

1/ Some moron in the group attacks the lair before anyone is ready or too few are ready, so everyone gets systamaticly slaughtered.

So, everyone is down, and i have 9-10 angry lvl 80 Bols all charging at me at once.

So, before they even damage me i Feign Death to make sure it suceeds.

2/ I'm fighting with a group and i seem to be taking most of the damage, i get to %5 of my health and one more blow will Incap me one step closer to death, so i Feign.

The moment i'm healed i get back up again.

Well, not only does my friend constantly moan whenever i get half way down my health, whic is untrue unless i'm fighting Krayt's were one more blow would kill me, but there is always one or two people in the group whine about it.

My friend i kinda understand since he can Res, but i'd still rather him not to bother.

Why do others seem to feel the need to complain that i alone survive where they die?

It's a simple perk, i earned the skill so why shouldnt i use it to my advantage?

It's probobly jealousy that they suffer decay and i dont, but its not like the skill is foolproof, i do still die since it tends to choose its times to fail at the worst possible moment.

I hate to think what someone would say if i used last ditch to incap someone in PvP when they were about to incap me, probobly acuse me of cheating.

Anyone else have any experiance of this?

Actually... if my group leader had his way, he'd have me feign death as soon as possible just in case anything went wrong.

Smugglers have more fun than the law allows

I love feign death, here's my favourite story about feign death.

I'm a master doc and master smuggler, so I can survive large aggros quite well if I'm paying attention. I was running through the webweaver path on the Ryatt trails doingthe radio quest those that have been there know that the spiders and other npcs will aggro on you, luckily I had my parawan and feign at the ready

At one point I was feigned on the path going towardsthe feral wookie camp, I looked at my overhead andI saw agroupof about 5 that were a littlebehind me, I got up and moved a little forward, then I feigned to stop the aggro. I did this one more time and curiously enough everytimeI stopped and feigned, they stopped, when I started again, so did they.

Well I decided to be ajerk because let's face it we smugglers are the flithy bastards of swg. I ran back to where these guys were and I decided to "help" them, I started hitting the spiders that were on themwith body hit (I have pistols novice) and they must ofthought this was great because they took off and pretty much left me with the aggro.I put my plan into action anddowned some parawanthen ran for it past them dragging the aggro with me, just as we all got to the second bridge just after the feral wookies camp, feral wookies on me and spiders on me, I feigned and boom the aggroed dropped off me and went on them.

I just laid there and watched them run for thier lives and fight, most of them were lvl 80's butit didn't look likecake for them,soon as they were gone and the aggro was gone, I took a little jog up the trans camp and finished the quest I was there for. Incidently I got the radio while feigned in the trans camp.

Bless feign death......when it works
