I just recently picked up smuggler and have been wearing the novice smuggler tag and i have had a sudden increase in people wanting to duel me


Having TKA and CH i find this quite amusing as i just stand around with a rancor hidden around a corner and wait for some muppet to duel request me then i just KD them and call the rancor and watch them whine about me using pets and being a novice smuggler lol


What is it about the 'novice smuggler' tag that invites duels ?

When I get a duel request with my smuggler tags on, I accept. Then I put on the Krayt Flamethrower and do my best to ruin someones day, or at least send them the to medcenter for the next hour. I die/lose in the end anyway, but at least I get the joy of seeing all the hate /tells right after I clone.

Question: What does the Combat Rating do? I have a CR of about 1.2k but I have no idea what it means.

People actually wanting to duel smugglers? Why, lol?


I mean think about it: DIRTY FIGHTING.... We're not very strong combat-wise, but we make up for it by being just downright despicable (sp?) in fighting. Come on... Low blow? .... with a PISTOL?!


*play movie clip of Antonio Banderas in "Once upon a time in Mexico": 'What do you want in life?...'*


Yeah, panic shot and last ditch aren't really that low down, but the big kicker is feign death. Who wants to have a grand battle that ends with your opponent falling incapped and then... what... NO DB?... Why you dirty low down... "You're cheating!"

This thread reminded me a bit of the "good ol' days" where smuggler's were some of the most uber in PvP. That was a long time ago... For those that have been around, here is an oldie but a goodie.

Basicly put, its a rating of how highly ranked you are within the game's PvP system. The higher the rating you have, the higher the rank. Consider this, a Master Marksman or Master Brawler can take out a Pure Novice Smuggler, quite possibly a pure Master Smuggler. Why? Cause we only get specials, no mods at all as Pure Smugglers.

Do this: Become a Master TKA in addition to being any level in Smuggler. Wear the Novice Smuggler title.
Idiot has challenged you to a duel.
You have brutally slain Idiot in combat.

If someone randomly duels you, and they aren't wearing a novice tag, then you can likely bet that they *will* deathblow. So, if you get a random duel from someone you don't know, deathblow. They will soon learn not to randomly duel people.
