Slicing/Scavaging/Underworld Traiding
Cyber on alt.
-
How long do those missions take at that tier? 30min?
-
I ended up on Sith Meditation Sphere - Empire.

You have to play the game more to get 8 characters to level otherwise it takes 8 times the amount of time it takes you to level to 50 once.
You either play 20 hours a week or 20 hours a month.
Or do you mean after you get 8 level 50s?
It does take longer to get eight characters to max level than one. That doesn't mean that you have to spend more time per week.
And to the other reply, yes I messed up. I mean't to put investigation instead of Underworld on one.
Imperial Agent / Smuggler 1) Armstech, Investigation, Slicing

I don't remember but I think it's shift click or shift right click

I think his greatest misunderstanding is that having eight characters actually means that you play the game for a longer period of time.
Also for future reference having Pizza Hut slice a pizza in to twelve slices instead of eight does IN FACT not give you more pizza.

Such a helpful comment made from someone who is most likely sitting inside on a computer at this very moment.

1) Untrue statement
2) Saying it to BW if it was true wouldn't make a bit of difference
3) This is the crafting forum

If you had eight characters (one for each advanced class) how would you spec your crafting across them all?
Here is what I had in mind...
Bounty Hunter / Trooper 1) Armormech, Underworld Trading, Slicing
Bounty Hunter / Trooper 2) Cybertech, Underworld Trading, Slicing
Sith Warrior / Jedi Knight 1) Artifice, Treasure Hunting, Slicing
Sith Warrior / Jedi Knight 2) Biochem, Diplomacy, Slicing
Sith Inquisitor / Jedi Consular 1) Synthweaving, Underworld Trading, Slicing
Sith Inquisitor / Jedi Consular 2) Archaeology, Scavenging, Slicing
Imperial Agent / Smuggler 1) Armstech, Underworld Trading, Slicing
Imperial Agent / Smuggler 2) Bioanalysis, Scavenging, Slicing
General points:
Cover each production skill by classes that can use said items
Have dedicated gathering characters so to not be redundantly covered. If you need mats hop on your mat farmer which can farm more mats per hour with having 2-3 gathering professions. This character will have stealth to assist in some cases.
Cover each production skill with the appropriate mission skills for rare mats. Redundancy being OK since you could have multiple characters running missions at the same time once the time that missions take gets longer.
The two gathering professions that include being able to get mats from killing mobs (of different types) on the same gatherer. This char will also be of high DPS spec.
Each character has slicing. Why? It is an easy money maker but primarily because everything else was already covered anyways and it leaves it being the best thing to stick in the slot.
The character(s) that would be leveled the highest first would be the ones with gathering skills.
Send greens that can be RE'd to the appropriate crafters.
Send special missions gathered from slicing to the appropriate mission characters.
What I would think of possibly varying would be
Sith Inquisitor / Jedi Consular 2) Archaeology, Scavenging, Slicing
Imperial Agent / Smuggler 2) Bioanalysis, Scavenging, Slicing
And instead drop slicing on one of them and picking up the other profession mat gathering skill for a fully fledged gatherer.
How would YOU do it?
-
How about mats? Are they selling on the GTN at all?
-
From my beta experience, i could only send a maximum of 2 companions out at any one time.
This actually has to do with your player level. Every 10 levels you can have a companion out (so level 10,20,30,40,50) for up to five out at a time.
-
What would be the advantages in your opinion of having three mission skills over having just one mission skill if you could just as well send out all your companions on missions for just one mission skill?
Mostly diversification and larger selection of missions to cherry pick?
-
Sounds like there should be an ISD based guild O_o lol.
-
-
Anyone with high level beta experience know how many "long" missions there are available at the end game? I'm guessing that you can't send out all five companions on 12 - 24 hour missions with only one mission skill and call it a day.
-
OK, so its not that I can queue up a bunch of missions or gathering and have them just constantly go, it's just that if the mission/gathering goes longer than I am online, they will finish that one mission?
Correct. And at higher levels the times it takes can be longer than the super short times in the beginning.
-
Should have known to not post this in general where posts tend to fly off the page...
-
Yes - there are some mission skill missions that can take up to 24 hours in the end game.
-
Only useful for the crafter. Or I suppose other crafters that don't have the time/money/etc.
I believe other crafting skills have similar things. It's a perk for being a crafter.
-
As the title states... it includes the STAP but does it also include the training for the STAP or do you still have to pay the ~40k credits to use it?
-
No, I do not believe so.
-
Well, now you can't say that.
Chances are at end game and after the economy stabilizes that some other other gathering professions will net more profit than slicing while slicing will remain simpler.
-
It is a gathering profession that especially caters towards those that have little to no interest in production skills as well as those who don't care to raise up their production skill until they hit max level... in which they could take slicing and then drop it when they hit 50 for their appropriate crafting skill.
-
I would think you would do missions to level mission skills.... just sayin'.
If it doesn't appeal to you then you may want to drop it and pick up another gathering profession and eventually (once there are enough items on the GTN) just sell the things that you gather to buy what you would have gotten from the mission skill.
Also keep in mind that as you level you get more companions and can send out more companions on missions which may help alleviate some of your trouble
Did they stealth nerf slicing?
in Crew Skills
