You made pistoleers happy with the DL44 XT cert, but you just cheesed off every smuggler that wasn't planning on getting Master Pistoleer.
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?
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
Deathhammer = cool looking
Renegade = too bulky and wieldy to be a real smuggler's weapon
Black advanced DL44... that I can mod with my WS for my Smuggler = awsome, and My smuggler is also a master pistoleer... I've just never been a real fan of the metal DL44s, I'm a purist.. I like the black ones with a nice silver muzzel
So you are saying the ShipWrights are gonna get all their skill points back and SW is going to become like pilot? COOL!!!
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.

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?

Shipwright doesn't cost SP?

Yah, he was certainly Ace freelance pilot and probably part politicion too, but those were easy to fit in his template

You guys are mean. I'm gonna go work on some weapon "tweaks" . . .
Can you *tweak* them so we can put weapons on our vehicles? The BARC isn't gonna look as cool without all the weapons on it!

It appears to be a behind the scenes mechanic to aid weapon conversion.
Ok.
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.
I understand that, but I'll have to be a Master touse it and I'm not. - Don't have the skill points. Besides, I don't think this was even necessary. Just make a new"Advanced Laser Rifle" as a new weapon. If youwant to renamethe 'LaserRifle'cert to "Light Laser Rifle" - go ahead. But don't take it away from invoice riflemen.
...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 don't think it has to be that way at all. This is a nerf. Plain and simple.
I have something of value to me right now! - But after this nerf goes through it will only be of value to Master Riflemen.
I thought that the CU was supposed to make the game more focused on ranged combat. Not weaken it for mid-level players. If you want to make new weapons available to Master Riflemen / Pistolers / Etc. go ahead! - But don't take existing weapons away or weaken them.

Not many people know this, but Luke was actually Han's Jedi alt. He unlocked before P9 by holo grinding. That's why he has so many profession masteries. Smuggler, pistoleer, squad leader, probably some carbineer, rifleman, a little pikeman, possibly marksman and brawler since he dabbled in those for his elites. Hell, he's probably the one who buffed everyone on the Death Star. He was also a Ranger (area tracked Luke, harvested the tauntaun, and built a field base), which means he was a master scout at some point in time.
