Thread: Master Smuggler / TKM = Good or Bad?
I plan on going for Master Smuggler, TKM, and am just wondering what people think about this combo. I figure Low Blow will allow me time to close to melee distance in PvP, then slap a dizzy on if they're slow standing up. Anyway, just lookin' for suggestions.
Like I said Im planning on going MTKA/MS, what bothers me is the fact of having to work the pistol branch. If it takes as long as the unarmed line it will be ages before Im a smugler. At the moment Im trying not to use a pistol at all, at least until MTKA. This will also take ages considering Im currently around 80k from compleating the novice tka box.
Anyways good luck, hope yopu become a TKA/S soon.
I was a TKA before I was a smuggler. It took me a few days of casual play (an hour or 2 a day) to get smuggler. Trust me....there is a reason a lot of people have high pistol skills. Very easy to lvl up.
TKA\Smuggler is a good combo because of two things:
-FD....very useful for the TKA
-$$....easy money...whenever you need $$...just walk into a crowded town and do some slices.
Being both a TKA\Smuggler gives you somethign else to do if you get tired melee'ing.....or tired smuggling...seems to work out for me....does not mean it will work for everyone of course.
I was master smuggler b4 TKM.
master smuggler is broken atm.
Dirty fighting line:
- low blow sux now that it's on kd timer
- feign death is good in PvE, NOT in pvp
- panic shot is broken
- last ditch works well, stuns them but slow fire rate and accuracy depends on your pistol skills
Slicing:
- master smuggler slicing %'s are now broken since the slicing2/4 "fix" in the last patch. %'s average from a low of 11% to a high of 41% (that I personally have seen)
- cannot control what is sliced or how high/low
Spices:
- some are still bugged (ie you cannot consume anymore spice bug)
- cannot experiment correctly to produce any effects on the spice
Underworld:
- 30% discount on faction items at master level is nice...it's about the only good thing from this skill.
- +100 lang...what's that all about?
- i can sell enemy fp and get like 100c per 250 fp or something like that...whoopie
- 1000c for 10 fp and/or 10000c for 125 fp...and you cannot buy past 500 fp...only worth it if you can buy something for less than 500 fp and you have 30-40k to blow.
Currently I am working on Novice TKA. Should I work my way to master before starting with smugler or how should I work both profesiosns.
I would aprciate your advice.
I also heard smuglers can sell their faction points, for how much?
I would apreciate your advice.
i put in my post above that you can sell fp, but you sell like 250 and get about the same in creds.
it's really not worth it.
the only thing master smuggler would be good for atm is space...unless the changes made in the next few weeks are really helpful to smuggler (which i highly doubt), then it's useless unless you wanna hang around cities all day and spam "slicing locked containers for free" etc
