* Modified Laser Rifle to use extended appearance
* Moved Laser Rifle certification to Master Rifleman, Renamed weapon to "Advanced Laser Rifle"
* Added new craftable "Light Laser Rifle", certified at Rifleman Abilities I
Uh... what exactly does 'extended appearance' mean?
And instead of moving the Laser Rifle cert to Master and renaming it, why not just create the "Advanced Laser Rifle" as a totaly new weapon with higher stats?
Is the newer "Light Laser Rifle" going to be weaker then my current standard Laser Rifle?

Doesn't Chewie's bowcaster shoot red bolts in RotJ?
You made pistoleers happy with the DL44 XT cert, but you just cheesed off every smuggler that wasn't planning on getting Master Pistoleer.

It appears to be a behind the scenes mechanic to aid weapon conversion.
Doing it this way means your krayt laser rifle pre-cu will be converted into the better version of the available laser rifles post-cu.
Does pose an issue with certs (take the case of a marksman or a smuggler or anyone else not a master pistoleer who owns a dl44 metal), but that problem was one that was apparent from the first day the CU hit a server we could see and one that I think is just gonna have to be the way it is.
At least this way you may have something of value to someone.

I bet Han Solo was also a Master Pistoleer. If he was just a Smuggler, he wouldn'te able to wield a DL44. Right?
Han's DL44 wasn't silver either was it?

He was also a master shipwright to be able to mod the falcon, and probably had some business savy, maybe a bit of fencer... um i mean TKM with all the dodging of stomtrooper blaster bolts.. .ranger two.. i mean otherwise how'd he know what those things in the "asteroid" were and that it was safe for his group of 3 to shoot em off the falcon? Oh, and then theres the certs for the stormtrooper armor that didn't quite fit, and I thought i saw him with a rifle once or twice.
Now how'd he fit all that into his tempalate?

Smugglers are a hardly bunch, and it takes more than a minor blip like this to cheese us off. Most of us are still overjoyed about having writing in our Master box - yes, we were that ignored. And having the Deathhammer and Renegade pistols is ace

Don't forget Novice Carbineer or perhaps Novice CH for the Stormtrooper armor cert, too...
Easy,at that time frame the holo grind was still in effect and he was grinding out different professions to get jedi

He took Novice certs with the left over points (that's why he couldn't wear the ST armor that well - not enough mitigation). Plus, shipwright didn't count against his skill point total.
See... it all makes sense.

Hey, you'rea dev. You're not allowed to make sense in your posts.
Don't say I didn't warn you about those smugglers. I think one already snuck into the pistoleer forum to complain (I'm a pistoleer by the way...)
Now... what about Chewie's bowcaster??? I swear it fired red bolts! Just because Jedi Knight II fired green bolts, doesn't mean you gotta follow suit. Gimme my movie iconic red bowcaster bolts, please.
Not that I'm a wookiee in game, but if I was, I'd want my bolts to be like Chewie's!
