I am brand new to the smuggler profession (x12x), and I read something about a nerf for feign. I think it's a cool skill, but I need to know what's up.


Can someone help me?

the thing is you can only use it in pve and not pvp.

Why does that seem like an absolute silly thing to do to the smugglers?


Maybe it's just me. Did they post these changes? Don't remember seeing that on the notes.

If your asking if the devs ever tell us anythng


Then NO they did't


If your asking if we found out about this by looking in other profession's forums then Yes they (not the devs) did post it.

Yeah the devs are only picking on the BHs and Jedi with no regard to anyone else. but it is not surprising. Where is the smuggler revamp love? Exactly.

It is a corollary of the Smuggler Nerf which is what we get any time a dev pays us the slightest attention.

Feign death wasn't really a big loss...the only thing I used it for in PvP was losing TEFs, but otherwise, you get griefed and blackbarred...unless you have a lot of patience, it was nearly useless in PvP. And logging while feigned WAS pretty cheap...

But the devs should've FIXED feign death...not remove it. Like, make us appear as corpses...and then you and your enemy are both knocked out of combat. Thus making the skill only useful in big fights where no one would pay attention to you. But in a one on one fight, if you just randomly fall and become a corpse, the player will know you are feigning, and attack you again.

I was just doing some reading to see if I missed anything important while I was gone for 2 weeks or so. Glad they are not totally nerfing FD. I agree with above poster that in pvp feign death was only semi useful and there was clear abuse of the system. Not that I dont have my stories of getting away from a death and all.
