JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 27, 2002 Share Posted May 27, 2002 I'm interested in hearing about some jobs people are taking up on SWG (or planning to), not including Jedis and Bounty Hunters. If all the game had was Bounty Hunters and Jedis, well, there'd be no cars, pets, droids, etc.. Because who would build them!? I'm going to try to be a Doctor/Physician and/or a Musician.. If Bartending is interesting, I might travel that road. What jobs are you guys trying for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwok69 Posted May 27, 2002 Share Posted May 27, 2002 Hi JG. I want to be a miner, there are several reasons for this but I dont want to let on just yet (mmwuuhahaha:D) I will say this though, I heard a man can make a pretty penny selling mined crystals to jedi for use in making holocrons!

setsuko Posted May 27, 2002 Share Posted May 27, 2002 Right now, I'll guess I'll keep a low profile and see what eventual armed duties will be necessary for our dream-town. So no, not everyone will be bountyhunters. I guess I am far to territorial to chase around the galaxy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madcow Posted May 27, 2002 Share Posted May 27, 2002 I am being a thief, mainly because you don't need much cash for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaalgoth Posted May 27, 2002 Share Posted May 27, 2002 Cow, as far as i've heard there are no thieves in this game. and ghost, as far as BH's and Jedis go, there will be many who strive to become them but few will reach that level. True, tehre will be more BH's then there are jedi, but not everyone who wants to be a BH will be a BH. There isn't a button that lets you instantly be Boba Fett, and once most of the would-be Bounty Hunters realize they have to work to become a Bounty Hunter they will probably just quit and try being a soldier or something that they get to shoot stuff with. Besides, many of those that do have the initiative to be a bounty hunter don't realize that you actually have to hunt down your prey using tip-offs and hacking skills before you can kill them. Don't worry, there won't be too many Bounty Hunters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulic Quel Droma Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 i keep seeing you guy say that people would rather be bh's then jedi and that alot of people will realise they cant and give up, but what about people like me who are gonna try 100% to be a jedi, personaly i think bounty hunting would be a stupid job cause all the people i've seen wanting to be one are gonna limit the jobs and pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 28, 2002 Author Share Posted May 28, 2002 Well I've decided I will try to pursue the doctor career. Since there aren't many of them, when you get hurt (or need a physical) I'll be the only one! P.S. Plus they all have big houses, hott women, fat wallets, and nice cars.

JediGhost[SITH] Posted May 30, 2002 Author Share Posted May 30, 2002 Wouldn't mining for the Lightsaber Crystals be sort of pointless? If there aren't that many Jedis, who you gonna sell 'em to? Or could you sell them to NPC Merchants, since I hear that you can buy Lightsabers from some NPCs? And can NPCs do any job in the game?! If they can, then whats the point of having humans? Just make the NPCs do everything, it's probably much more efficient. Then we can all spend our time slogging to become Jedis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setsuko Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 We know for a fact that you will be able to hire NPCs to keep your shops. Other than that, I have not read anything by the devs about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JekRendar Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 Those words echoed thru my head as I was reading the above posts, then I heard Vader, "Only your hatred can destory them!" I'm now about to light up my flamethrower and mo' your rumps! Dud, you can't just select BH, similar to Jedi you have to earn it. Gaal, I don't know about thieves, but slicers are about the closest. Dud, how do you expect to be a DECENT smuggler with the other half of the SWG players as smugglers too? Ok, you're lucky my thrower is broken or else you'd be in big doodo! ______________________________________ I'd want to be a Medic (that's what they call them according to Stractics), or a tailor (make my own clothes and sell them to the rich and call it Victor's Secret). Heck, maybe even a Politation (sp?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koffin Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 I want to be a little guy in a space suit who just floats around the galaxy with a big squeegy. As ships fly by, I can clean their windows for tips. Ill be known through out the galaxy as "Galactic Squeegy Man"!!! Well...either that or Ill be known as "That little spot on the lower left window." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demangel Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 That squeegy bit was something I found utterly hillarious! LOL don't worry man if your the little spot on the lower left corner of my window, I'll make sure not to turn on the windshield wipers. Who would put windshield wipers on a space ship? Me of course, how else are you going to see when you pass through those meteor showers? As for my profession? Well asside from the unmentionably Jedi thing, I am going to start off at least with the intention of simply exploring SWG. for example in EQ, I was the first in my guild to successfully visit just about EVERY outdoor zone on luclin, and conducted guided tours so to speak all around it, I explored it heavily in the first few weeks after it came out. (I was one of the lucky few who could get it to work on my pc). So whatever I do it will probably be somewhat similar. I'll be a tough guy of some kind to be sure, but I might not put an emphasis on fighting. But we'll see how the game plays you know? But probably something along the lines of a guy who simply lives day to day, doing odd jobs for people who need X thing transported, or simply galavanting around the galaxy visiting all the places my faction will allow. I don't know if this can be called a profession or not the way I am thinking of it. But in all likelyhood it will be a mix of a few of them. As for the Jedi thing? I'll be working on that too in between hopping from planet to planet. Anyway obviously I will need some piloting skills so some sort of speeder will be important early on, eventualy evolving into either an X-wing/tie of some kind, or some more or less normal transport ship with adequate defenses when the expansion gets released... It sounds like a fun job. Heck if I don't make it to Jedi, I'm sure to transport one sooner or later on my ship... If I can't be one, I'd like one for a pal heheh. Myfriend plans on being my big black furred wookie companion... Heheh gotta love die hard friends like that heheh. But no we won't be doing any Han solo, chewbacca impressions... at least not unless you have good money to throw at us for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JediGhost[SITH] Posted June 2, 2002 Author Share Posted June 2, 2002 I don't know if this can be called a profession or not the way I am thinking of it. If your talking about exploring SWG, it is a job. I think there were 2 that related to this, I can only remember one however, and that was the Adventurer. How can you get paid for this? Hmm who knows.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
