One important thing people are forgetting about Slicing is that, you're missing a vital crew skill to be able to fully support your crafting skill.
I got Slicing, Cybertech and Scavenging, and I pretty much find myself spending most of the money I get from slicing on superior and artifact materials from Underworld trading.
Unless slicing gets some changes I see it become obsolete because it's only good for a few extra cash and augments ( which I can only assume also will drop from raids as well. )
