With the bounty hunter skill point reduction it will become possible to master everything pistol related. Master pistoleer, dirty fighting 4, and bounty hunter pistol specialization 4, along with novice commando for the launcher pistol certification if desired. Currently I'm working ongetting novicetka and completeting the triple master (I quit for a long time and plan to quit again at the end of the month and pick back up with jump to lightspeed. I also made the mistake of not going to novice tka while there was no vk cert). What I'm wondering is, if I drop master smuggler, how much can I drop before I lose the slicing and spice exp that I've built up but have no use for. If I drop everything but dirty fighting 4 will I keep the slicing and spice exp I have earned to make repurchasing the skills easier?
The reason I ask is because for now the pistol master template seems more attractive. However, when I come back for jump to lightspeed I'd like to be able to repurchase master smuggler quickly again without going through the hassle of grinding through cdefs and shadowpaw. This of course is all under the assumption that something attractive for master smugglers gets added into JTL.
I guess what I'm asking is, do you think it's worth itto switchto the pistol template temporarily and return to triple master once JTL comes out, or should I just continue towork up TKA and already be a triple master when I come back for JTL.

I've been giving up scouting when I dropped 1 of the hunting lines the next time I looted hides I lost 10,000 scouting exp.
Anytime you surrender a skill you will lose exp when you use that skill again. The max exp you can keep for a tree is 2X the about needed for next level (for a 1 tree type exp if next level needs 1k exp cap is 2k if more then 1 tree uses same type of exp then cap is higher).
Easiest way to see it is look at apprentice exp 620 needed but max you can have is 1240.

Specifically the Exploration line only I believe. Although I think it should be survival, which make more sense as the trees are named.

Especially if fighting a jedi with no terrain negotation on a hilly planet like Dathomir.
