As for the idea itself, we smugglers have been asking it since the day you got into terminals. We have been speaking about lots of ways to make it opssible, fair, and so on. Obviously as no smugglers is a Jedi (well at least no active forum member), noone thought about the alt char exploitin issue. That's the thing we (and you) have to work on to bring the idea in a full ready-to-go.


Iwas told there is no way for you to log your 2 chars at the same time, if that's true, an easy fix for exploiters would be to allow only online jedi to get removed, while grouped with the smuggler. If this is not true, or can be bypassed, then you have to bring other checking in, like the needing of 2 or 3 smugglers to remove a jedi, making the number of smugglers higher with the jedi getting higher.


How does it sound for you?


That's what i posted there, input would be good on this side too

i personally love the idea, getting decent feedback on the jedi forums to ... more smuggler input would be grand ... like the idea of the jedi grouping with the smuggler to do it!

its not a bad idea but it would have to be set up rather elaboratly for it to work right. otherwise you would have smugglers charging 1 mil for removal (not that we dont deserve it) or every jedis main would be a smuggler. you would have to intergrate new tools into the slicing tree that requires stats from resource to help how good they are for 1. 2 it should require some rare-er resources. 3 it should require multiple slices and using clamps and laser knives multiple times. finally i think it should be a factionally aligned thing that cost faction for the tool or something such that only imperial smugglers would help out imp jedi

Should make it a puzzle, like the BE DNA sequencing on base takedowns. BE much more interesting

I would even settle for 'us' showing up on the terminals for failed or for a less than perfect bounty wipe...there has to be risk for both sides.


In fact, a failed attempt should significantly increase xp loss for the Jedi, and make the Smuggler visible. That way Jedi's with alt characters cant just sacrifice there alt character- an the skill should be limited to once every week or so...which means we stand to be able to earn a nice $$ on the whole thing.

Well VegitoX, i think smugglers became the savior to the Jedi when the Jedi were actively sought after and killed by the Empire. It would make sense for them to lie a little low and who better to help than smugglers? On the downside, I can see a good number of smugglers who would eyeball the reward for turning a Jedi in instead of the measley credits the Jedi could pay...

Help the Jedi....sell out the Jedi....help the Jedi....sell out the Jedi....

Going to depend on who the Jedi is, and how much they're willing to pay.

I can't be bought, but I CAN be rented...for a while...
