Forgive me if this has been discussed before (I'm sure it has), but doesn't it seem rather odd that you have to earnPISTOL xp to move up theSLICING tree (as opposed to SLICING xp), and that you have to earn COMBAT xp to move up the SPICE CRAFTING tree (as opposed to SPICE CRAFTING xp)?

Isn't this a little like requiring droid engineering xp to move up the carbineer trees, or requiring BH xp to move up the artisan trees?

I was considering going smuggler, but now I'm not so sure. It seemed like an interesting profession, half combat/half non-combat, but if it's all combat to get there, what's the point? Might as well just go for an all combat profession.

It's a damn shame what they've done to your profession. You guys deserve a revamp more than anyone else, IMHO.

No offense was intended, it's just that I'm already halfway up to Master pistoleer, I kinda wanted to do something a little different.

I m sure no one has taken offensive =) But we are aware of that, and pleaded, yelled, screamed, begged and whatever bout that. Zhe whole concept of xp is lame, imo.. atleast for our profession.

I love the drunken glare! Always gets some sort of point across.

I'm sure you all have, it was just sort of a shock to me as all. I was thinking about it all day at work, how I should just switch to smuggler, 'cause I was sick of all the combat grinding. I knew there was SOME pistol xp, but I figured ther'd be some variety with slicing and spice crafting, and I'd just gotten so bored of shooting things....

I was all excited about it.

What a let down.

This game is bizzare.

There was slicing and spice crafting xp, but they replaced them with pistols and combat xp during the CU.

The whole spice crafting thing wasn't too bad, just boring. On the other hand, slicing exp was a PITA. Trust me, you DO NOT want to go back to slicing exp.

I thought the NGE couldn't be any worse than the CU, but I was wrong.

One of my characters is a weaponsmith/smuggler. At least I will be able to slice my own weapons, A fighter he will never become, at Level 55 he just doesnt have enough defence or firepower.

Dont get me wrong,this charactercan travel just about anywhere to service my harvestors and defend myself against mobs and is quite useful to have in a group, butI will never get to Jedi and as such have intentions to go to the village.

If you want to be a crafter smuggler is a good addon, if you wantto be a fighter (duel profession) eg Rifleman/Smuggler,the smuggler has some interesting capabilities.(I really liked the old concussion shot <sigh>
