Smuggler Archive

Basically, the way it goes is, CL80 Smuggler=anything that is at all soloable, and then some, you can solo. CL54 Smuggler=you'll be allright if caught off guard, but bring a friend if you're going to Dathomir.

Keck's right. A single combat Master(level 54) should be able to handle anything that's capable of being soloed up to about level 58 at the most, if you use tactics. Level 62 and up if you're just a tactical genius. That includes Smugglers.

Smuggler on its own is okay. I hit most of the time (meaning 85-95%, not 51%) even before I got my shiny new +24 pistol accuracy CA, and strategic rooting really does let you fight more on your own terms, which helps make up for our general lack of offensive or defensive power. You're most effective and useful in a group, partly because of the lack of offense/defense, partly because it is only level 54 on its own, and partly because our crowd control really comes out when there's other players around to take advantage of it, but I've found myself able to solo much of the content in the game.

I am a Master Smuggler and Master Armorsmith.

I love it - I get great creds from AS and all the fun combat has to offer.

Nothing is more fun than soloing binare pirates with my rifle using my smuggler abilities. LOL if only my Laser rifle/carbine did more than 300 DPS I'd be set!

Master Smuggler/Master SW on my Kett character... basically, if you're going somewhere alone above CL50, it would be wise to fins a CL 80 friend or guildie and ask them to just group you while you're off doing what you're doing. I do not believe you need to have them present to get "promoted" to 80. I could be wrong though, I'v never tried it. Been playing my Starsider Kate almost exclusively lately.

Wth is "promoted'?

if your grouped your CL is raised to the highest level in group in terms of defence and damage modifiers

Oh - that Temp damage/defense modifier.

Yep. Not sure it works if you're on the other side of the galaxy from your group, but... worth a shot.

Thanks for the replies all..smuggler is for sure my main focus. And I tried pairing it with pistols, BH, and carbines..carbines being my favorite. But having two combat professions for me is a bit redundant. And at least now I can make all my own clothes..hey I wont have to keep a medium house full now! It is good to know with just smuggler I will be ok out and about. But for dathomir and such yep I will just grab some guildies before heading that way.

And MEOW infecting every forum is a good thing..who wouldn't want cute danger kitties in their forum? Anyways if you go through my oh 55 pages of posts you will see I was posting here way back when I was still imp and in a different guild. What can I say the smuggler forum is the BEST!
