Dang looking thru your professions problems, I can see your profession is in about as bad shape as Commandos.

Personally from my experience with smugglers and slicing. The Slicing of Weapons and Armor is too random as you all well know.

So if I was a Smuggler I would be pushing for your proffession to get the ability to pick the type of slice your going to perform.

So like on weapons you get an option to either slice for speed or damage, and on armor either slice for encumberence or resists. And the actual ranges would still stay somewhat random. But if its a new and unused weapon or piece of armor the chances of a "high slice" would be greater. The higher the condition loss the chances of a "bad slice or low percentage slice" increases.

To me this would be the best thing to have, especially if the Devs are going to make it where "Sliced" items are no longer going to be sold on vendors. And since most everyone wants damage slices, (with the exception of Commando Flame Throwers and grinding VK's which need speed slices) this would give smugglers more control.

Actually if I was a Smuggler I would ask for this skill of picking the slice to be placed in the in Master box, and keep slicing 1-4 totally random. And then getting the option to do a certain slice in the master box, to make Master Smuggler worth something.

And on a side note, I would be hitting the Devs up for some Pistol speed and Accuracy mods, since you have to have 1.1 mill pistol xp. And I thought Commandos had it bad with no mods for our launcher pistols.

But good luck.

The prices of my services are based on "tolerance". The more I have to tolerate you, the more you have to pay me.

Plus, most of us don't like slicing at all because it makes us feel like whores.

I'd rather see all energy committed to getting us smuggling. Then they can bin slicing all together.

It would be a quick sweetner to Masters, sure.

It would kill Slicer IV's business, too, which I'd welcome.
