There isn't any LS/DS options in this quest

I am Empire player, i soloed with my main sorcerer all bosses up to Taris (included - lvl 38 giant worm) all without hitting enrage. Quesh boss kill me with one hit when he was at about 10% health. He was enraged for some time doing little dmg and then one shoted me.

Craftable Mods are 4,6,8,10, etc. and Enhancement 5,7,9,11, etc. with one exception and that is number 22 for lvl 49. Barrels, Hilts and Armorings have all those ranks. Color crystals are lvl 7,15,23,31,39,47 and 50.

Yes, you lose all learned schematics when you drop current crafting skill

Blue and Red crystal schematics are at mission support vendor at Corelia, Belsavis and Ilum for 20 daily commendation each. +41 power, end and critical rating. Then you need 120 daily comm to get all of them.

You can turn off showing of legacy name in same menu where you decide which way is displayed. There are 3 choices.

Ice Jewel is Grade 4 btw Grade 5 is Nova Crystal

I have uwt on my IA alt. Kaliyo or ship droid crited for me moderate t6 metal missions several times bringing 2 blue and 3 purple metals. On t5 almost same, but i run them less often. On my main sorc i have TH and frequency of purple gemstones from normal mission is very similar with utw on my alt. Few crits from moderate missions etc. and he bring 2 blue gemstones, 2 orange color stones and 3 purple gemstones. I see no difference between yield from t6 missions from TH and UWT. As i said only in UWT on t6 are mislabeled "rich" mission. In TH, archeology, scavenging and slicing (skills i have on my 2 max lvl toons) is everything labeled correctly.

Nar Shaddaa Hutt Cartel Trading hub. its cross faction and independent from republic or empire GTN.

highest available T6 UWT mission for metals is abundant mission "A Volatile Gift"

Only wieldable items can crit. In artificer case it's all offhand items we can make and also rakata relics (400 skill) and lightsabers (380 skill) can crit. Everything else can't crit. Crit add Augment slot to crafted item.

in UT at grade 6 there are misson that are labeled as Rich, but thats not true. They are moderate, if you compare time and cost between them and regular moderate mission you will see. This is only in UT. All others mission skill are ok. At grade 6 there are only moderate and few abundant mission (except wealthy from one time purple).

Mk24 in Columi / champion Mk25 in Rakata / battlemaster

Im imperial, but it will be same. Once you hit lvl 47, you can get Belsavis bonus series prolly on space station. This bonus series contain all belavis daily mission plus few one time quests.

I that chest i that item you need for breaking down matrix cube back to shards. Same price as at Tatooine... 8k

Andronikos is a lot easier for male SI that Ashara for female SI because he loves weapons gifts and there is no difference between he is not romanced and when he is romanced. Purple rank 5 weapon is about 320-400 affection. Same grade of gift rise Ashara affection about 100 maybe. Faster and much cheaper for female SI is doing daily missions on Belsavis. Its about 500 affection per day.

Same for Empire, just Balmora Junk Vendor in colicoid area - far north across water. He also sell for 5k key to holocron box in colicoid area

One time only. For doing it again, you need another mission discovery item.

maxed treasure hunting, i never got purple box from any mission, but few times i got purple item from blue box

50 Sorc here. I have 10k with Talos and there wasn't single flirt option in all dialogs with him. Not romanceable at all now.

Purple item is final, RE on them is only destruction w/o chance to success. Augment slot on anything is "critical" craft, it is not depends on recipe color. can proc on green, blue or purple.

He is too big Armor isn't showing at him at all, only custom pack changes his appearance. Khem Val customization pack are also available at Balmora. There is companion customization vendor in cantina in main city.

its simple, he don't like that type of gift you giving him

Moderate < Abundant < Bountiful < Rich < Prosperous < Wealthy Prosperous is from blue mission discovery and Wealthy is from purple mission discovery

slicing don't provide material for any crafting skill. you can get random mats, credits, lockboxes and schematics. but random
