Implemented Raise XP gains for smuggling

[M3ntal]

It doesn't have to be much but as it stands it is a tremendously lengthy grind for even just as little as 20 levels. Smuggling is useful for newer rebels because it can get them the equipment they may be lacking, but if its basically not worth putting the effort in due to how much of a chore it is, then maybe the gains should be boosted a little.

Smuggling caps out at level 20. You can get that on character creation.

It’s far from grindy, especially considering smugglers sell everything so there shouldn’t be a supply issue.

Not really the point here. If you don't specialize in it and start from the bottom, it is a massive drag. If the solution is to start the character specifically with the relevant traits then isn't that a problem?

Edit : The contributing factors to it being a chore is the fact that not only do deliveries take 2 hours, essentially, but also the fact that the items you can sell and buy from the start offer very little xp with gradually diminishing returns, thus making it a crawl. Just making a character that specializes in these traits should not be the solution.

Intentional. Two hours delivery time is the compromise for allowing smugglers to sell everything.

Skills aren’t meant to be earned fast. The speed at which you earn smuggling levels is already incredibly fast compared to the other skills, and I see no reason to make it faster.

It is not fast at all. Crafting levels alone from scrapping trash have bigger returns than buying and selling most base level crafting materials. I bought and sold over a hundred pieces of trash and even then I only raised my smuggling level progress bar (from level 0 to level 1) by 30%. That took an hour to do, by the way, taking into account competition from other players who are doing the same thing.

Will work on it
