Now Im a master smuggler on tempest and if anyone ever takes the time too read the little discrition thing when you slice it says something like " The maker of this weapon was tricky but not good enough for you. ect" So Why not make it so Weapon smiths can make elite weapons but once the weapon is at a certin damage lvl or speed lvl a new part called Failsafe regulator or anti slice system. Because roleplaying alittle Sliceing is illegal and when your cought the maker of the weapon should be harrased and warned ect. So by incresing the difficulty of it it adds alittle more roleplaying content.


Low level weapons should be allowed to be sliced and when sliced andget very high %'s. Because if its just a cheap gun it should be able to be upgraded easy compared to a gun that has best parts and resources but into it.


Now when the smugglers revamp comes around wouldnt it be cool if your were cought by the empire and they gave you a deal asking you who sliced your gun ect for less of a fine or a get out of jail free card. This could possbly help get smugglers on the Bh boards. But they Empire could also coming knocking on a WS door and do a search of there house or something seeing if there are and supposed " Illegal goods about."


Well please tell me what you think.

Let me start off by saying I have not been a smuggler since November. There are 2 reasons I am not currently, one is the no content issue which has been beaten to death and the other is the fact that we can't chose a damage or speed slice.


With that being said, I would have no problem with making it harder to slice as long as we had a choice and our success rate varied on how good our components are.Smuggler is currently the only crafting profession in which out components have no meaning. A good smuggler would make sure he stashed away some of the loot from his deliveries to enable him to profit some in the long run.


I also really like the idea of ratting out your smuggler. It would really make smuggler's work to find clients that are trust worthy. It's also away of cutting down a bitof the ingame spam with penalties for bragging and all.
