I'm planning on being a bounty hunter. I think there will be a good deal of jobs with lots of players trying to cheat others and such. I guess I, like most people, just like the bounty hunters in Star Wars too. After I have the game for a while I may dabble in smuggling, but only time will tell.

Haha, being a chef would be cool. Both because I think of Chef when I hear it, and because I do a lot of catering. But seriously, since I am thinking of some kind of security type character as my main char, it would propably be either marksman (the gunslingin' sheriff), bounty hunter (since the profession has the right skills, even if I'd had to 'catch the bad ones' instead of just going for bountys), commando (may have to modify the skill tree a little, and add non-combat skills), squad leader (for the leadership), or even a combatheavy politician (solving the worst problems at gunpoint).

 

Really hard to decide, since a lot of professions can be squeezed into my concept, yet none of them is a natural choise. I'll have to think about it some more, I guess.The advantage is that if the skill trees are as flexible as I believe, a bit of effort will make the character into what I want her to be. Unlike most other MMORPGs, where you are stuck with a template, exactly the same as all other players with the same profession.

It keeps getting harder to decide. I was originally planing on working towards being a bounty hunter....butt he more I think about it I think it might be cool just to be a gunslinging badass. So there's a Commando or Marksman possibility, and then of course there's teras kasi......except I'm afraid that that's where the majority of the jedi wannabe wash-ups are headed. Although it would be cool to go medieval on a room of people. Who knows, I'll just have to look at the particular skills involved in each profession. Definitly combat oriented though....once the space expansion comes out I might smuggle some for a little variety from the killing, but being a chef is a little too close to real life for me.....god i hate italian food after this summer.......so basically I'm going to shoot for a solo-esque badass for starters, then maybe lean more towards a more social aspect. Squad leaders seem cool, but I'm not interested in military......sigh......

Don't be fool stay in governemnt??? POLITICIAN ALL THE WAY WOOT!...Man how cool is it for some guy to back talk to you and you make up some crazy assed law...and say ummm sir, we have no crappy hair-cuit law which says if you have acrappy haircut u get EVICTED then kick the mofo out! YEA!...and of course the aweness of corruptability! but thats another story...well actaully ill talk about it anyway because im very bored anyway.....Theres a bunch of local criminals in you player city...but there is too many of them to take plus the are just an arm of a larger criminal syndicate lets say...the hutts...So you make a "negociation" they pay you a certain amoun of "Mula" and you forget that they just killed you ex-wife.....i mean gaalgoth...yea...gaalgoth..

well I was heavily considering image designer just cuz i love to do graphic design, and I think it'd be awesome to be the best known clothes maker in the galaxy, and all the rich and famous would come to me for their ****. I would also love to be a Bounty Hunter but that would take a while. Of course I'd like to be a jedi, but I'm not even gonna try, and then commando/marksman sounds awesome too.

EXPLORER is what I'm definitely leaning toward, because I hate being tied down to one place. It's also one of the most well rounded professions. Though I'm not going to rule out MARKSMAN or COMMANDO. I'm still weighing the pros and cons of each profession. It's not like I don't have time(chokes back a sob).:)

POLITICIAN I have a thing for holding the reins of power... oh and while exploring and teras kasii have thier attractions, I'd much rather order people to go map places or kill people than get my hands dirty, or actually exert myself physically.

 

Plus the oppurtunity to run for mayor and outlaw free thought and individuality is just too appealing...

 

oh, I feel another evil laugh coming on:

 

mwahahahahahahahahahaha!

EDIT:

Gaalgoth: well, my experience is that non-combat roles can be fun as a concept, but will often lead to long downtime (playing time without anything happening), and other boredom when your friends are offline. With a combat character, at least you can go blast some vermins or something.

Exactly Setsuko. And I admire people who can sit there and honestly want to run a gunsmith shop or whatever, good for them.....the good ones will probably be much more useful then I will be. but like you said, long downtime isn't all that grand.....I'm not going to pay to do something boring. As a fighter, you can always just go pick a fight, which I plan on doing alot. and everyone knows that fights are never boring....
