Woot, they asked my question...
*Jackrabbit* My questions are about the upcomming Smuggler Revamp. With the new Spice system, most Smugglers assume you're doing away with the Spice tree. Can you tell us what you think will go in its place? Also, any plans to put in PC bounties on PC Smugglers?
And their answer 
...
...*Tiggs* Currently we have the smuggler changes listed on our forums under in concept!
*Tiggs* There are two docs listed that we would love your feedback on
*swgdevrthornton* The spice stuff is being effected primarily by the combat upgrade. There might not be a bunch of more skill boxes in their place, but we'll probably see additional contect for the existing boxes, and lots of work being done on the content for the overall system.
Well at least I got to see my name in a HoC chat...Message Edited by Jackrabbit187 on 03-17-2005 06:57 AM

I don't understand "...a bunch more skill boxes in their place..."! There are 4 boxes. ...a whole branch. The In Concept posts say they want to remove smuggler ability to make spice. That leaves 4 empty boxes. They need to either leave in the Spice branch and let us make useful stuff or take them out and replace them with something at least as good. We don't need another useless branch.

Make useful stuff? The total of the "useful stuff" in our spice branch is Muon and Pixie, the rest is nothing but a path to that end.
So, for all practical purposes once we reach Master, we have 3 useless boxes in that branch. All they would be leaving blank is one box IF they actually left the entire branch without purpose.
But you see, if you aren't a factioned Smuggler you already have one whole branch worthless; Underworld (unless you consider understanding lekku worth it).
If you've long ago become bored being a slice monkey then there is another whole branch worthless. Even if you DO slice there are two boxes that most Master Smugglers have little or no use for.
And the DF branch? Two pistol specials are worth the effort IMO...maybe three but that still leaves one box minimum useless.
All in all most of our tree is useless so a little more in exchange for some actual smuggling is a decent tradeoff IMO. And I don't really believe they'll leave the Spices branch empty when and IF they actually get the revamp done.

Yup or a way of saying "I can't answer that" without saying it. lol
It is why I am leery of reading too much into that answer of his.
