The crafting in 1.2 has changed nothing. We lost our last armstech today, he just rolled biochem. This is getting depressing.

I agree they should remove the reusable aspect of biochem and allow biochem to make best in slot non-reusable rakata stims. Godo idea.

Republic? Tried 2 hours to get a group together to do a HM flashpoint and the next day rolled imp.

Why can't other professions use biochem reuseables? Biochem is the only profession that has 5 pieces of gear that they can use that is biochem only and is not even BOP for the reuseables: 2 implants 1 adrenal 1 medpac 1 stim Armstech BOP: NONE, I repeat that NONE. Armstech has nothing that is best in slot and bind on pickup. NOTHING. Artifice BOP: 2 artifacts Synth/Armor: Belts and Bracers Cybertech: Earpiece

So? So can every other crafting profession and it is all BOE not BOP. Armstech has nothing that they can make for themselves that is best in slot that someone else can't just buy from an amrstech or loot better.

Biochem currently is the worst designed crafting profession I have ever seen in a MMO. I have it on my raiding main because I have NO CHOICE. Please for the love of the force remove the reuseables or give them to everyone because I would love to see some crafting diversity in my guild. It is pathetic that this long after release you still have one profession that can make both best in slot gear and consumables.

Who the eff cares? Armstech has nothing, I repeat NOTHING that drops from Operations or Flashpoints to utilize all the high level crafting mats out there. Every other crafting profession has level 56-58 gear they can make EXCEPT ARMSTECH, including biochem which can make best in slot gear and consumables.

So? They are BOE and they are not world drops. They are mission drops from slicing. Armstech needs BOP BIS barrels.

Nothing above level 39 drops for Armstech, welcome to another asset of BW that is half-done.

Past 39 there are no Armstech recipes in the game besides the new 1.2 Investigation mission oranges. Armstech needs a best in slot ability. BOP Level 63 barrels would be nice.

I have still nothing best in slot for armstech.

Currently only biochem can min/max your toon as all other crafting professions best in slot is bind on equip. Biochem has been given an extra gear slot with stims and it is patently unfair as 140 of your main skill is a substantial boost in power and crit that most of us only experience on raid nights. In PVP and raiding guilds more people have biochem than all other crafting professions combined. With reuseable adrenals biochem gets another damage/healing/defense skill every 3 minutes that can be part of their rotation. To do the same on another crafting class would cost over 100,000 credits for EV alone. So when will the bind on pickup and best in slot hilts/barrels etc be itemized?

Every profession has it except Armstech. The ONLY solution is a Level 60 Barrel.

Why are there no Wookie/Humans walking around?

Accuracy - decrease armor rating NOT defense Alacrity - increase energy regen
