Heh, WS have customers just as dumb as the Smuggers.


Y'all should read the Chuckle thread in the Smuggler's forum. Many, many stories there.

PlayerX : Hi


Me : Hello


PlayerX : Can you make me a suit of armor?

You gotta love the players that know just enough about Kryt to know what to ask for, and no more. After four requests for kryt FWG5s in about 20 minutesand me telling them I don't keeptissues on handlast night, I switched to my Novice Chef tag, and STILL got two more requests from the same hunting group. I work out of Dantooine so I guess they figure I only sell high level stuff. Actualy I'm the only real supplier of low level weapons out there and it's what I make most of my money on.

Ya, but try EXPLAINING that to someone.


Me: ""No I can't make you an enhanced FWG5, tissuescan only be used in power handlers, FWG5s don't use power handlers, they use projectile feed..."


Dumb@$$"I want a Kryt weapon and I use FWG5s, please make one"


Me: I can't, pick another pistol, and I can."


I only had to do that once to figure out it was a LOT easier to say that I don't have any tissues then to explain what parts are neede for what.

I prefer the

dudes walks in
"hey you got good weapons?" - bum
"yes I do, don't forget next page button" -WS
"will you sell my your kryat DX2 for 40k instead of 200k? its not very good" -bum
"no, are you stupid? it cost more to make then that" - WS
"oh....... hmm what about your normal DX2s, what are there stats" - bum
"pretty good, not sure exactly, look on vendor" - ws
"your weapons suck ass dude, I'm going to riona's" - bum
"can you even afford riona's guns?" - send by ws in tell
"no...... but they are better then yours, your suck" - bum

-ws thinks to himself, how **edit**ing stupid is he? honestly, he can't afford her guns, whats he do ? drool? look at them? pretend hes using them while they are fresh in his mind from clicking on display? layaway - riona dosen't even awnser tells, she won't train, she won't repair guns, layaway?

(note riona was number 1 kryat weapon dealer on flurry server, pricey, but uber, recently removed from game due to credit duping and selling on ebay or some thing)

X immeadiately catches shuttle off planet, leaving me shaking my head and speechless.

Suffice to say I havent heard from him since.

And I'm pretty sure this has happend too each and every one of us who have been smithing for the long haul.






I love this...though, I gotta say, although it is funny, at least the customer was polite. It sounds like he just hadn't run across a Krayt yet.

I am almost Master...can't wait to get into tell hell...heck, I have already had a couple times when wearing my Expert Weaponsmith tag while trying to go hunting with some friends (I am working on TKA as well...I like a mix of combat and crafting) that it has taken me nearly 2 hours to get out of a starport. My favorites have been the people who ask me to make a weapon and I tell them my weapons are not as good as a master's and they question why. Uhmm...because I am an expert WS, not a master WS.

Im already getting tells and Im still a novice. Its really funny to tell them I can't even make the gun they want , no less the uber gun they want.
