...don't bother, it had no effect on slicing as far as I could tell (sliced about 20 weapons and some armor and got normal results)

I thought Luck only enhanced the credits and loot dropped by mobs - I don't ever remember seeing anything about it affecting slices.

I could be wrong, but I'm sure I'd have remembered somehting that would boost slicing values.

Vehicle tree seems like a must have...


But what about the combat ones? I picked up pistoleer (0103, 17 skill points) so I could have some accuracy and speed. I would need to drop some of these boxes to go up any of the force sensitive boxes.


Is it really worth it?

It just seems to me that those skills are nice to have if you have extra skill points, but who has extra skill points?

So, what does "Jedi Luck" actually provide? and in the same breath, does / will Vehicle control / speed affect JTL and Space ship piloting?

From what I have read, I could be wrong:


Luck is supposed to give you more credits on a kill.


and vehicle control will not affect JTL

Espo; "but if you do pick up some skills and report here on them prepare to be chastised by these condescending azzholes"


What in the world are you talking about? The smugglers forum is about the nicest place on the SWG forum list. Who's been chastised here? Or are you talking about the recurring claims of special things to increase slicing odds? Only reason we'd be skeptical about THAT is because the devs themselves have told us NOTHING affects slicing.


So who (as in plural) here have been "condescending azzholes" exactly?

Luck has been tested fairly completly by the TC community. In fact, there was a thread who's name escapes me at the moment that had the "DO's and Don'ts" of Luck and Persuasion.

In short, it's loot based only. While it MIGHT be a future enhancement avenue the devs might use to add abilities to smugglers, I doubt it, as most that go down the FS path will soon be Jedi anyway.
