Will Smuggler specials be able to be used on other ranged weapons like say rifles or flamethrowers? Or will we only be able to use pistols?

They're usable with any ranged weapon.

Low-blow with a flamer, here I come!

...or last ditch, maybe...

Almost sad it's ranged only. I'd like to punt someone a good one in the gonadals with a Razor Knuckler. That would be *pain*, with that big spike it's got.

Good point (no pun). Smuggler combat specials really ought to apply to fisticuffs as well; even the best smugglers loses their weapon now and again.

Alright, so all Ranged Special Attacks are usable by all Ranged Weapons, and all Melee Special Attacks are usable by all Melee Weapons? Why did they even bother with 'redefining profession roles in combat'? This is really retarded.

Ahhh, it's deeper than that. Say I wanted to use a rifle using smuggler skills...well in order to use the best rifle I will need to master rifleman. Will a rifleman/MS be as good as a MS/MP? Depends on your play style. Rifles are much slower so you might not be as effective mezzing but you will hit for more damage. It's all a give and take...allow for maximum customization.

Or lets again lets say I'm a rifleman/smuggler and wanted to use my pistol to do rifleman specials...I will do more damage but not as much as a rifleman using a rifle. Again...it's a give and take system. No one is overpowered...your success depends on your play style.

Have to say Commando with Smuggler seems appealing...using smuggler specials with a flamethrower just seems too good to be true!!! Hell even Rifleman seems awesome!!
