Thread: Master smuggler worth it
- Captalization -If ye don't capitalize the first word in a sentence, ye'll have t' walk the plank! Arrr!
- Read the forum! - If ye post a topic that's covered in the FAQ or been answered more than 5 times already, ye'll be keelhauled! Arrr!
- Trade posts - Take it t' yer server's Trade Forum, or we'll douse ye in rum and flame ye! Arrr!
- Visitors - Non-Smugglers coming here to ask questions have t' bring beer and pie t' appease us! Arrr!
- Spell Check! - Avast! If ye can't repect us enough t' check yer spelling before posting, we'll tie ye up and send ye t' Davy Jones' locker! Arrr!
- Grammar - Run-on sentences and "leet speak" are not welcome here, matey! No shorthand like "sum1" or "do u do that 2?" either! Lazy landlubbers like that make us want t' run 'em through with our sabers! Arrr!
Ignore the rules at your peril, says I! Smugglers are a touchy breed these days, and we be itchin' for a fight! Jedi may be raped, pillaged, and plundered without so much as a "by yer leave"! Arrr!
Ye may want t' note that these rules may change at any time, for whate'er reason catches our fancy!
ARRR!!!
7. If ye arnt sure whether 'r not t' be a Smuggler, ye shouldn't be be askin, matey.

Lets just put it this way... you have a good thing going right now, don't switch to smuggler and end up getting pissed like the rest of us.
Slicing now requires all kinds of different loot drops, so I've had to just tell customers to decide on what slices they want, go buy the parts, THEN come see me. I can't hope to carry all those slicing comps on me now, whereas I could carry crates of all I needed before. Not worth it.
Being able to buy faction and sell it. Not worth it. AFK faction farmers can sell it cheaper than I can.
Being able to make spices that give about 10% of the benefits food does, while also having side effects.... Not worth it. Not even worth the time invoved.
Being able to run around as a rebel combatant and Feign in major imp cities when I don't feel like fighting. Worth it. If it wasn't for feign death and the hope of future smuggler missions, I'd probably drop smuggler and my subscription again, both.

As someone who was a MBH/MSmug I'd just like to say, "DON'T DO IT!!!"
You'll be less effective in combat. Your specials don't stick when you do more damage... I got my arse smacked like a naughty little school girl almost every time. And not lightly, OOHHHHHH NO! Like, BAD!
Now, if smuggling missions EVER get added to the game, go for Smuggler. Well, at least I will.

Depends what you want to do but ill tell you this after jedi this profession is prolly the most powerful in the game.Why?Because with the GCW you can convert cash to fp.Become a colonel and you can give fp to friends for low cost at almost 1to 1ratio.Also your friends who earn piles of credits can simple tip you and boom!got enough for bases.
To protect yourself from any stupid bh that may come after you if they place smuggs on terminal, choose rifles /carbs or commando prof as your secondand youll be fine.Smugglers alone can turn the tide of a war on any server. I have 8 stike teams across 8 galaxies causing havoc and harassing imperial forces and all of them have at least one master smuggler in each group.
While you wont own everyone in pvp ,you will be able to defend yourself with the multiple stacks of states and damage shots to keep the enemy off balance.There are a few other advantages to smuggler but i will let you discover those for yourself.BTW make sure your in a guild it will be easier to aquire the components you need for higher end slices.
