chris_rw Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I've been so obsessive compulsive about which class to play next. I've created and deleted a ton of characters trying to figure out what I want I'm curious what everyone's thoughts are on Smugglers vs Troopers. How did everyone enjoy theirs? Did they prefer one over the other? Better story in one? Better gameplay? I've been playing a Smuggler (up to 15 or so) and have been enjoying it for the most part, but I'm curious about Troopers also. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJunkie Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I really enjoyed my trooper. Hella fun class to level but the story is a little bland. I keep trying to level a smuggler but I just hate the damn cover mechanic and that green figure just won't go away. But I do hear good things about the smuggler story though.

mamosh Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 smuggler story owns the trooper story and as for the cover first thing you do when you make a smuggler/IA replace cover with crouch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlynnFlon Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Its just a personal opinion but I feel its other way around. For me the smuggler starts off great then after chp1 it just gets silly. You are an errand boy being bossed around by a crew member and then you end up being a goody two shoes . Trooper at least sticks to same story as such. Cover mechanic still doesn't hide the fact the smuggler is a weak glass shotgun( not canon really) and if you play a GS prepare to die..a lot! Smuggler is weakest of all classes but plenty enjoy them (i did at first and had waited for a LONG time to play one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mamosh Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 (edited) i actualy liked it because i wasnt some lowbe getting orders by someone and being treated like scum but i do my own thing smuggling stuff around being my own boss once risha joins you it only got better and i didnt die more then any other class and atm slinger outdps any merch by far if played right i got both at 50 equal gear and prefer the slinger by far over the merch more tools range interrupt best kb in game Guss is the most fun companion there is failed jedi what more could you want and the redneck corso gives you guns when you raise affection. No char is more skanky and flirty then the smuggler on every planned you have a romance pretty much and if you say a slinger is weaker then a commando you doig something wrong =P Edited April 18, 2012 by mamosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iCanUseTheForce Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Been playing a Smuggler Gunslinger lately and it's fantastic. The story is good and the converastion even better. While true that the Smuggler is a bit fragile, mine hits like a truck. Trooper is kinda EZ mode from what I hear (heavy armor, range attack, huge AOE early). But I prefer a more challenging class as it keeps me from getting bored with a 3 button rotation. Be a space cowboy; be a Smuggler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
