[Eight]

I am torn between my love of that character and my despising of his chosen profession.

Tell him "sorry, bro" as you shoot him.

Preferably while this plays in the background

Note: Opinions of the player are not the same as Eight.

Question about damage for weapons. Is damage just calculated from base weapon + mods? Or do we add Brawn or something for weapons like lightsabers? Trying to figure out how Thy got that damage in the example.

One of the ultimate talents for either Shien or Shii-cho lets you add brawn to lightsaber damage, and if you get into modding in earnest, your damage can get pretty insane.

[Shaisha Vreysk]

Yeah, there are some talents that allow you to add a Trait to a damage roll (Shien gives one for Brawn to damage, Shadow lets you add Intellect once iirc), and some mods+crystal give increased damage. But you do not normally add Brawn to damage rolls with Lightsabers (I believe you do so with normal Brawling weapons, though?).
Lightsabers make up for this with their "haha I ignore your Armor, loser" with Breach.

[Yslane Tssilla]

Makes sense, it's not like a magic laser sword that cuts through anything will cut through anything harder just because you swing it harder.

[Dapper Dog]

Don't forget some crystals have starting damage thresholds that are higher than the illum quality crystal which most of you have.

I think maybe one person has a Ghost-Fire crystal which is cool... it leaves after images and is very quiet.

Hang on a second how does a slaver take trade ins?

Is there some kind of bluebook for used slaves?

......*checks through stack of forms and reg books*

Huh.

[Javagus Khan]

Repeat business does not seem possible if you end it all.

Yeah, killing off your customers just isn't good business sense.

I wasn't trying to ~taunt~ the Sith; But it was just out there, hanging.

I'll behave now Arali~

*secretly high-fives Arsele for taunting the sith*

Tonight I will cry into my pillow because I learned for the first time I was fat.

Like I was yesterday and the day before that.

[Shaisha Vreysk]

Resorting to body-shaming.... tsk...

Life really is unsophisticated and ignorant outside the Empire.

Excuse me sir... Darth....Lord....Excellency how ever one of your stature is addressed but one of the literary greats of the Republic once said sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. I just felt that information would be useful.

I...what unsophisticated? I went to the finest prep schools. I was practically submerged in culture and sophistication. How else could I be a Civil Servant?

I do what I want.

Yes, yes, of course you do, my lord.


The things I have to put up with for my Empire...

*Horrified* take people off the street to work in Civil Service. That, that just isn't done. It goes against the system.

I feel continuing an argument with a Sith Lord ends in misery...

[Arali Zian]

*Horrified* take people off the street to work in Civil Service. That, that just isn't done. It goes against the system.

No, it's actually a rather simple system all its own.

You see, the way the process works is an employer publishes an ad, and then a bunch of people who are interested in said job and feel they are qualified, or feel it's worth giving it a shot, all apply for said job, and then the employer screens the application, interviews a select few prospectives, and hires the most qualified.

See? A system!

Well I mean yeah for normal people and normal jobs that's fine.

[Arali Zian]

Considering the civil services employ about a fifth of the population, I reckon that's a pretty normal job.

[Adrianaa Morindel]

That's basically how I got to be a Senator.

Saw an opening, put together an application, and the hiring board (voters) thought I was the best fit for the job.

[Zeno Deathwright]

Civil service would be a good option to pay off fines/serve time for non-violent convicted criminals. I could see the republic offering to allow non-violent crimes be expunged from their record for long/good enough service.
