So, I'm a level 24 Jedi Guardian, I have artifice, archaeology and treasure hunting skills.
What I'm confused about is how to actually use that to my advantage.... I don't want to sound stupid, but I really don't get it. My artifice is up to almost 150. I pick up items on the ground etc. but I can only make 3 kinds of crystals and 2 kinds of hilts which are not helpful to me because of their low stats.
When I try to reverse engineer the items I craft, I just get crystals I can't use (or don't know how to) to build better things. I have a whole bunch of stuff I scanned and picked up lying in my galactic bank since I don't wanna carry it with me. When do I know I should sell my stuff?
Hope I've explained my situation well enough... please, help.
EDIT: like if I go to swtor-holo.net and see the stuff about crew skills, I see it talking about 'silica' and 'desh' and that I need them a certain amount of times... but I haven't seen anything like this. I'm not sure what I need to be doing.
