Chapter 3 "Smugglers and Scoundrels"
Publish Notes, September 27th
"Chapter 3: Smugglers and Scoundrels"
• Cargo, contraband and criminals are the lifeblood of any good smuggler, and with Chapter 3: Smugglers and Scoundrels, players have even more ways of plying their trade. Packed with new features, content, skills and rewards, Chapter 3 offers new and exciting enhancements for every aspiring Han Solo in the galaxy.
The new Smuggling System will introduce features including:
• A New Underworld Faction – Smugglers can increase their standing with this faction by completing smuggling missions; while Bounty Hunters and Spies will watch their standing fall as they try to thwart the Smugglers' efforts.
• New Smuggling Missions – NPCs will be stationed across the galaxy distributing dangerous yet profitable new missions that deliver rewards of credits and higher faction rankings. But watch out for the new enemy NPCs that are out to steal the mission contraband!
• Player versus Player Smuggling Missions – Signing up for certain more lucrative missions automatically puts the player on the "most wanted" list of every bounty hunter in the galaxy, but surviving them results in fabulous rewards of credits, armor and weapons.
• New Smuggling Abilities – "Sly Lie" and "Fast Talk" will come in handy when attempting to evade capture and hide contraband.
• There is a Broker named Barak in Bestine on Tatooine who can hook Smugglers up with work (-1049 10 -3538 ).
