Pirrov wins.


Folks won't go for it though. Man, you should've seen the response on the smuggler forum when I suggested slicing should TEF a smuggler (Hey, slicing is illegal, I mean **edit**). Nobody can handle radical change!

Besides the fact that we are hijacking the thread... there has been talk about making player bounties and stuff for smugglers so that BH can hunt them. And ya most smugglers on the smuggler forum are grumpy and ready to lash out... its from a year of waiting for change and nothing really happening.

My main account is a Smuggler, my alt account is a MWS. I only slice for my alt WS, which is sweet, so today I sliced a crate of VK's and of course kept the 2 34% damage ones for myself. Nice to have 2 accounts that work well together.

Would this make someone get a TEF and be attacked by imperials.. if so would it only effect rebel smugglers and imperial smugglers would be fine.



I didn't put much thought into it since it was shouted down so quickly at first mention (apparently most forum smugglers aren't into combat or the GCW ). Honest, I dunno how it could've worked with the 3 alignments (good, neutral, evil.. er, imperial/neutral/rebel I mean). My gut says ALL smugglers would have to get TEF for it to be legit, but neutrality is supposed to mean no GCW involvement, and imperial-imperial TEF would just be massive groin pain (see Jedi/BH interaction for examples).
