Why A Beginner Would Choose The Smuggler Classes In Star Wars: The Old Republic?

If you are like most Star Wars fans out there, you can expect the server to be overrun with Jedi Knights and Sith Warriors. After all, most people consider them to be the most powerful beings in the entire Star Wars universe! But what would compel someone to choose the smuggler class in SWTOR? Very simple. Have you played a rogue class in World of Warcraft? Simply put, the rogue is a very stealthy class that focuses on sneaking up to their opponents and dealing a lot of damage in a single blow. Therefore the smuggler class is similar like the rogue. It has the best dodge skills in the game and can most probably evade most blaster fire easily. Backstabbing comes naturally to a class like this where you can morph into an invisible force field, lay down your payload and get out unscathed. You can also get into most places that other classes will not be able to get into. Trading definitely is one of the greater traits of a smuggler as their smooth talking will get them the best deals. You need to be very careful with your defenses though. Unlike the Jedi or the trooper classes, these classes are built like a tank and can take a lot of punishment. Smugglers are more fragile and care must be taken. This class has 2 areas of advancement – the Gunslinger and the Scoundrel. Knowing your class specialization is very important because you have to determine which path to take as a Gunslinger or a Scoundrel. Gunslingers are very good with two guns while the scoundrel is definitely the master of dirty fighting and dirty tactics.
