Squad Leader Archive

Hey all I don't see a top five thread on our board and just cuz I, personaly, am curious I thought I'd start one see what everyone else thinks. Mine are as follows:

1. The no preview on necklaces bug. This one just realy realy irks me.

2. Bugged color 1 or color 2. This one is just as irritating if not more than the first one.

3. No catalogue or prievew for customers. I know this has been discussed a little bit but we need a way to show people what the striped pants look like compared to the striped slacks or whatever. People are always asking me "Well what can you make" and I'm a master so I say "Everything" and then the next question is always "What can you show me." Now I like to do combat as well as tailoring so I don't have the skill points to have a vendor so I travel to make things for people and with all my crates and components I can't realy carry arround any mockups. I think we should have some sort of inactive crafting tool that works as a catalogue so we can show people exactly what we can make. I have several posts about this and I still think it's a realy good idea, wish they'd add it.

3.5 if this doesn't get fixed I'd at least like to be able to store more stuff in my PA hall so that I can have mockups made and store them in my house.

4. Misassigned and limited pallets. I don't mind all this too much but there are some things that I just would realy like to see with a better color range like one colorful wookie item and some of the dancewear that's in drab colors.

5. No slave skirt. I don't think this is realy a priority for other people but it's so purdy and I want it! Sorry for the whine there but I'm so jealous of the kooks and thugs who get this lovely thing while the alternative we can make has everyone looking like "I dream of Jeanie" with a wedgie.

I also have one other big crossover issue and that's with the rare resources required for bioengineers. My fiance has just started a BE character to help me out and everyone's been asking me for clothes with a bonus to taming but we can't make it because there's no milk which is realy sad. Anyways, what does everyone else think about this stuff?

Azel'em of Tarquinas, Master Tailor

I recently thought of another one, somewhat similar to the Bio-Engineer comment, also affecting demand for tailored items.

The drop rate for clothing SEA attachments appears to be extremely low now, to the point that socketing of clothes is probably irrelevant for the vast majority of players. They're unlikely to ever see one, let alone four, SEAs they might want to put into an article of clothing.

I forgot that I'd also realy like to have some sort of experimentation put back into our profession but I realize that this requires some reworking of the profession so it probably would be a while, just thought I'd put it out there.

Well I'm not sure it's a bad thing. If people had clothes with 4 tapes with various mods, why would they want to change them?

Very good point, also the fact that you can't get the SEA's out again once you put them in makes people realy wary about using them especialy with decay comming.

I think 4 out of the 5 things you stated were on Kwee's post that was sent to the Art Team. So not to worry, they know how we feel. If you haven't, read Kwee's post called "What Tailors Want" at the top of the page.

My list is in there, in a thread I started on that topic last week. I have plenty of other issues, but that list is my main ones that relate to tailoring and not merchant.

What are the Squadleaders top five concerns? Ive looked at several other fourms and they have a top five why dont we?

Because no one cares!

Seriously, I'm pretty sure we do, check out Vemnox's wonderful reports.

what? you want only 5? there are so many problems with SL that if i tired to pick only five issues my head would explode.....

or if you really want to we can sum it all up with our top one issue:

Squad Leader is the most broken, useless and unsought after profession in the game.

and that about covers it

Five would be a start wouldnt it, and I though I read somewhere that the deveolpers wanted a top five from all professsions, but Ive read alot of these dam fourms,I could be wrong.Just want to make sure that this porfession doesnet continute to bewhat you say dude.

He speaks the truth... complete waste of skill points.

the DEVs want the top five, but our awsome correspondent isnt going to put them together until we get a freaking responce to our correspondent report.....

3 months, 3 reports and not one DEV reply

the DEVs know what our issues are, or at least they would if they would read the reports. maybe they did? we dont know, BECAUSE THEY HAVENT REPLIED TO IT!!!

here are my top five

1) our profession is broken

2) our profession is uselss

3) the DEVs wont give us the time of day unless we make a comic labeling one of those DEVs a 'Tool'

4) Mastering SL required the third highest skill point useage and we have nothing to show for it

5) the DEVs are more conserened with jedi and revamping CHs when us and chefs need more fixes then all other professions combined

*head explodes*

see i told you....
