Proposal
With the intro of the new Thyferran Buff Enhancement Module - it would be a cool element to allow a smuggler to slice these droids for a cheaper fee to receive the buff.

Additionally - consider pursuing the ability for them to slice droids with these modules equipped for the 'next' person to use the droid so they can either slice it for themselves or for one of their friends.

Of course if you go this route there could probably be some sort of cooldown applied either per droid or per smuggler if deemed necessary.
Justification
Fun...making smuggler even cooler.
Motivation
It would add a fun element for a smuggler to circumvent another activity deemed illegal by the Empire.

And just to throw it out there as a possibility - make it no cooldown and make the buffs free if sliced, but add a roll chance that the smuggler will get a bounty placed against them with a reduced % chance based on opportune chance. Now that's 🔥...but... realistically whatever adds a little extra for the smugglers out there - they just need some love.

pony up dude. I have bought enough bracelets off you this is a non issue. LOL
Granted smugglers need a bit of love, just not sure this where they should get it. just my two bits.

I'm not a smuggler! Haha - And this PV was recommended to be made by a dev after I made an offhand comment.

I 100% support smugglers needing more, I am just sort of okay with this credit sink. I would prefer a 30k credit option to add 1.5 hours to my buff. or even bigger. would be sweet to have dr buff be as long as ent buff.

I love this idea! It really has no negative side effects on other players, esp. since the credits aren't being taken from others. It definitely isn't a reason for someone to go smuggler just for free buffs, so all it would do is enhance gameplay for smugglers.

Yes Smugglers need some love. No Smugglers do not need more bounty's on their heads. Please let smugglers slice locked containers for loot first.
