Smuggler/zh-hans

Smuggler Job Training

Description

As a smuggler, your abilities would rely heavily on having good reflexes and either aim or physique, depending on your method of attack. You’d learn to be pretty sneaky, fly well, and hit your foes where they least expect it, all while making your living in the underbelly of the United Galactic Confederacy, or U.G.C. The life of a smuggler is one of profit through luck and skill.

For the duration of your flight, your evasion is temporarily increased.

	Second Striker	Allows you to become comfortable making bonus flurry attacks with melee AND ranged attacks.
13	Assassinate	Make a melee attack with extra damage that increases the more injured the target is. May stun survivors.
	Called Shot	Take aim at a target's head for additional level-scaled damage (unresistable), intelligence-scaled critical chance, and a chance to blind the target.

Note: Sneak Attack's in game description (and thus the description above) is outdated as of version 0.9.013. The effect is the same as Aimed Shot, but Sneak Attack affects melee attacks instead. In other words, Sneak Attack upgrades melee attacks against stunned or blinded targets automatically, rather than granting a combat ability.
Booster Pack increases Evasion by 15 while active. Does not break the 50% cap.

Notes

Flash Grenade is an Aim vs Reflexes check. It is more accurate than most Status attacks, as the attacker's Aim is effectively 10 points higher.

Low Blow base damage equals Physique / 2. If used on a target with Ball size greater than 7, damage is doubled. Stun chance is a Physique vs Physique check and does not work on robots without genitals.

Lucky Breaks bonus Defense is equal to Evasion / 3 and capped at Level / 2. Temporary bonus Evasion from Stealth Field Generator, Cloak and Dagger and Booster Pack does count. The extra 10% miss chance is a separate check from the standard Evasion.

Sneak Attack and Aimed Shot bonus damage is equal to Level * 3 + Intelligence/2. If the target is both Blind and Stunned, it does an additional + Level.
Take Advantage adds Level * 2 damage.
You cannot gain the bonus damage while Blind.

Stealth Field Generator adds 80% Evasion and increases the Evasion cap by 30% while active to a total of 90%.

Gas Grenade does 14 + Level * 2 Drug damage to all enemies.

Grenade does 7.5 + Level * 2 + Intelligence / 2 Kinetic and Burning damage to all enemies.

Leap Up causes Steele to stand up after Tease attacks. Tease attacks get 25% bonus effectiveness in both directions when Tripped.

Quickdraw: Swapping weapons will put the unequipped weapon at the bottom of the inventory by default. There is an optional Auto-Sorting setting that can be toggled in the Inventory. You can change the order of item types in the Options-Gameplay menu.

The bonus attack provided by Second Attack and Second Shot has a 45% chance to miss, regardless of Accuracy. The penalty is ignored if the weapon used has the Bonus Hit Rate flag, or if the target is Stunned or Paralyzed.

Alpha Strike's guaranteed Critical is particularly useful with Burn Chance, Freeze Chance and Blind Chance weapons, because a Critical hit automatically applies the status, assuming you're doing HP damage.

Can Opener Sunder only applies to Melee attacks and is a Physique vs Physique check.

Mag Binders Stun is a Reflexes vs Reflexes check. Damage is equal to Reflexes + Level * 2. Can be an Aimed Shot.

Booster Pack also applies Sneak Attack/Aimed Shot if Steele is Flying via Wings or a Light Jetpack. If used in the first round of combat, it does not grant Shoot First.

Specialized Combatant only applies to Second Attack and Second Shot.

Assassinate Melee damage * 1.75 + ((Missing HP% - 25%) * 10. Stun chance is Physique based and is 25% more likely to succeed than Stun Chance weapons. Duration is Physique vs Physique, min 1, max 3. Can be a Sneak Attack.

Called Shot Ranged damage * 2 + Level * 5 with an Intelligence/5 extra Crit Chance. Blind chance is Aim vs Reflexes. Duration is Intelligence vs Physique, minimum 2, maximum 5. Can be an Aimed Shot.

Maximum total Evasion bonus from Items, Improved Agility and Cloak and Dagger is 60%. It is recommended to not overinvest in Evasion boosts.
