Trader Info
Hey all,
Sorry for not posting sooner, IRL stuff slammed me.
I am Guru, the Artisan Correspondent and I was one of the ones who attened the preview in Austin.
I believe I may have been the only one to play a Trader in the testing.
I will answer all the questions I can about Trader in the new system, however please recognize that we didn't have loads of time to play so I didn't get as far into it as I would have liked.
Trader: Trader is composed of four specializations:
- Munitions: Armorsmith, Weaponsmith, Artisan, Merchant
- Domestics: Chef, Tailor, Artisan, Merchant
- Structures: Architect, Artisan, Merchant
- Engineering: Shipwright, Droid Engineer, Artisan, MerchantFundamentally, the existing crafting professions exist unchanged. What changed was how you got them. As you level trader, you pick up Artisan first, then you begin to get the novice elite of your path as well as Merchant, ending in mastery of all the crafting profs in your path. All end-game Traders will be Master Artisan and Master Merchant (as far as I could tell, I could be wrong).
As for the act of crafting, it is unchanged. You use the same interface, same resources, same tools, same experimentation.
Naturally, the stats have changed. I made some food (Artisan food) and noted that the buffs existed, however they were tweaked to work with the new character statistics (Strength, Percision, Agility, etc).
The newbie quest requires you to craft a number of different items for the Trader on the station, for which they supply you the needed resources.
I cannot comment on how the elite crafting worked, as I wasn't able to level high enough to try it.
It is true that a Trader draws no agro, it was a bit wierd walking boldly into a room of agro mobs and having them ignore me. Of course, if you shoot one (Traders can use default attacks), then all bets are off. I strongly suggest not equiping a weapon as a Trader.
Bring the questions and I'll do what I can.
Anti Decay Kits
With the removal of item damage and decay, the “Anti-decay kit” veteran reward is not as useful as it once was. Rather than deleting these items or leaving them with a useless ability, they are being changed into a new rare useful item: the Profession Restart Kit.
The Profession Restart Kit is similar to the “respec item” which all existing players will receive at login, but with some very important differences:
The Profession Restart Kit allows you to change your class, but does NOT convert any pre-existing combat levels. If you are a level 90 Bounty Hunter and you use the Profession Restart Kit to choose Smuggler, for example, then you will become a level 1 smuggler. Unlike the “respec item”, the Profession Restart Kit does not convert your combat levels to the new class. It * only * changes your class.
The Profession Restarter kit is tradable, whereas the 10-charge profession respec item is not tradable.
The Profession Restarter kit is one-shot only. Once you use it to change classes, it will cease to exist.
ADK kits which have not been applied to items will convert automatically to Profession Restart Kits when you login. ADK's that have been applied to items will turn into Profession Restarter Kits when they are removed from the item to which they have been applied.
The Profession Restarter kit is one-shot only. Once you use it to change classes, it will cease to exist.
one-shot only, uhmmm zoals Imoan tegen mij zei. Je kunt dus niet meer terug naar class die je gekozen hebt?
Je ken maar 1 class doen, dan moet je of die kit gaan gebruiken of je toon deleten.
Maar je heb ook nog die 10 "Respecs"
Dit wordt helemaal niks.. Heeft veel te invloed op huidige character.
Zou gewoon opnieuw beginnen met nieuwe character of op andere server..
Want het is beetje TE om met huidige character te proberen als alles nog in kinderschoen is.. Zou met huidige character paar maanden even wachten.. Want je MOET toch opnieuw beginnen!
Na convert van je huidige character naar class, ben je lvl 1!
Dus of je met huidige character of nieuwe, je begint helemaal opnieuw..
Daarom moet men ook naar TC gaan om te kijken dit is te radical voor je char - stel dat je een ander class wilt ben je alles kwijt (indien geen respec). Ik ga echt niet weer Rebel Theme Park en CC's, etc doen om dat weer te halen 👿
Maar toch je begint opnieuw!
Dus vind dat al radical genoeg 🙂
Wat dacht je van het feit van al die badges die je nooit meer kan behalen, omdat ze geëlimineerd worden? (Profession badges)

hoop dat ik op xel-ha wel al me proff badges hou, mis alleen alle entertainer prof, CH, DE, WS, AS, shipwright tailor en chef.
heb nu 113 badges
😥
Ik heb net een tijdje SPY gespeeld en het is best wel leuk 😀 .
Het meer starwars alleen er zijn wel die dingen zoals crafting, ADK, Prof switchen wat met sceptisch houdt.
ik had verwaxht dit nooit te zeggen, maar het moment van stoppen met swg komt voor mij steeds dichter bij. ik vind het gewoon echt niks. zal wel blijven hangen tot alles live is, subscription loopt toch nog wel ff door, hoop dat alles tegen die tijd weer wat veranderd is, maar vrees het ergste 😥
Ik ben het met je eens xcaret, ik weet nu bijna zeker dat ik 2 accounts stop zet, alleen me jedi hou ik dan nog wel voor die 13 euro per maand.
Wie weet wat de toekomst brengt....
Ik hoop dat het allersinds meevalt dat men gaat cancellen ❗ ❗
Welke codec is dit?
Heb gisteren format c gedaan, heb de meeste codecs installed, maar deze dus niet?
