Please scroll down to the eighth or ninth question. Smugglers will have an expanded role as Privateers in space. Anyone know about this? Caylin - any word?

They have not mentioned this to me once or hinted at its' existence previous to this time to me. Nor have they mentioned abilities and skills that would be included with it...


So I know nothing.

Ah, the ol' Sgt. Schultz treatment. Stinks.

Hopefully more will be found out.

I just finished reading the info about "Jump to Lightspeed", and I was disappointed to see that they plan to add four new professions and didn't mention the role of smugglers at all. I mean really, what is the point of being a smuggler if it won't be linked somehow to piloting a spacecraft? Look at how useless this profession is, and don't give me any lipservice about the new "revamp". We can make spice, which is ok, but you have every fly-by-holocron "smuggler" selling crates for less then the resources to make them. Pixie and Gold are the only ones that really even sell. Then we get a couple nifty pistol shots, but so what, the devs are soooooo in love with old Bruce Lee movies, that a TKM can still kick our rear. Oh, and we can slice stuff, whoopy! I mean really, this profession should be renamed to "Street Thug" because it was based more on the abilities of a common drug pushing, gun toting, wanna be hacker, then it is on the Han Solo I saw in the movies.

1. Breath


2. Relax


3. They just announced the Space Expansion


4. I believe they will have smuggler specific content for SE


5. Not even the devs have all the answers, atm. I don't like it either, but we will have to wait and see what will, and what wont be in the expansion.


6. We are all on your side. We want smuggler to get better. In theory our profession is going to get some major attention soon (not tommorrow, but soon). But we will have to wait. Yes waiting suckss, but we have to.


7. I hope all your wishes come true.


See you in game soon. Smuggle on!!!

Well...considering it has just been announced I think we should all just chill, and see what the devs have in store for us.


What will make my life even better is the fact that smugglers can enhance ships and modify ships like we do weapons. With the market cornered on this, we could make a load of creds.


Also in space...from the sounds of it...we are all on equal footing, so to speak. Means, if a whiny Jedi peeves me off, I can blast him into a cloud of force-sensitive dust.


Needless to say, I think between pub 11 and JTL, our class will drastically change for the better. *Keeps fingers crossed*

Agree.


Just to let you know, they have not decided how and if the Jedi profession will have an impact on ships, or their droids, so they may have an advantage, but I hope not. I'd rather it be off of the piloting skills.


*Also keeps fingers crossed*

Please point me to where this was stated. I missed the part that it's a smuggler only thing. Do we truly have the market cornered on this?

The only thing I hope that is not the case in the SE is the YT-1300 (I think) being the only passenger spaceship. They need to have at least two or three to ensure variety. One out of 15 ships being multi-passenger isn't a good thing...

All the speculation is completely unwarrented. I mean, yeah this is the smuggler forum, and it is open to discussions, but no one has the answers but the devs, and who knows if even they do.


It'd be nice if we cornered the market for starship tweaking, but as someone said I havn't seen it written in stone yet...


As long as we get smuggling holds on our ships to hide contraband from Imperial sensors..


And as long as we get to run blockades...


I'll be one happy smuggler.
