  1. this is probably asking too much....but is there a site that has the moddable armor with pics as well as the item's source? just so i know not only what the stuff looks like..but also what is crafted, what is a drop, and what is a quest reward. torhead is pretty well useless for this.
  2. was afraid of that. i havent had much luck finding decent moddable armor for my sentinel, so he was using light armor. apparently, that was a poor decision on my part. didnt realize centering was dependent on the amount of dmg, just thought it proc'd anytime i took dmg of any kind (regardless of amount). tnx for the info! ---and for the record, i wasnt trying to hijack the consular thread. i actually play two of those. so much love.
  3. so to twist things a bit....medium and heavy armor classes can all wear light armor (removing the class restrictions from this scenario). so is there a downside to taking a modd-able orange pair of light armor pants or skirt, putting mods in it and using it on a jedi knight? are the armor ratings different for light, medium, and heavy armors even if they have the same armoring mod in them?
  4. this comment only makes sense if either.... a) no materials are required to produce the final product which you sell b) the materials required to produce the final product you sell are free i believe what you may have meant to say is that "you only have to sell 2 crystals for 125k PROFIT per to make your money back".
  5. yeah, it's rather annoying. my ocd wishes they were at least consistent. each grade level has x number of crystals, y number of artifacts....instead of it varying with each grade level. same with biochem. but again....my ocd clearly wasn't consulted when this game was made. or else the progression and layout of all crew skills would have been much more streamlined, consistent, and actually made a bit more sense. but to address your question.....i've found that running different level of crew missions affects what i receive. for example, bountiful seems to return more of the 2nd item in each tier than the 1st. 2nd tier being nextor in this situation. just like plasteel compared to plastoid for scav. moderate and abundant return more 1st tier of each grade, while bountiful and rich return more 2nd tier for me personally. but i haven't tracked it.
  6. and also i agree w/ the OP and intent of this thread. moddable techblades would be great for the lizard. also bioware....you may want to update his codex. which is blatantly wrong in what kind of weapon proficiency he comes with.
  7. slightly off topic....but this is the closest thread i've come across talking about it. but why does elara (an aim based companion) come with a moddable blaster that has cunning in it? her codex says her main attribute is indeed aim. when i add aim in her other item slots her healing goes up. yet when i switched out her green cunning barrel for a purple aim barrel...her healing did not go up. odd?
  8. i've been looting them from the mission success screen w/o any problems. is your inventory full by any chance? (which would cause it to go to the "pending" list in the upper right corner of the screen)
  9. how long can mail sit in your characters inbox before it's deleted? i only ask b/c i've mailed a lot of stuff to alts for them to grow into and would rather that not go poof and disappear.
  10. exactly. kinda tough to decipher exactly what the OP is attempting to say (since someone obviously turned their keyboard upside down).....but if OP wants to have access to the other crew skills, do what the rest of the population does. roll an alt.
  11. i've gotta be missing something in regards to this patch though. it's a seven hour long patch/maintenance/update. however, looking at the patch notes it doesnt SEEM (to my non-IT or code understanding mind) to be anything worthy of seven to ten hours hours because they don't seem to be addressing anything major. no major fixes, updates to crew skills/RE, or anything "major" (major being a very relative term). so is it more extensive than the patch notes or are they actually putting in something not listed? i thought they were modifying the RE rates with 1.1.4, but i didnt see it listed. or maybe my google skills are failing and i totally missed a massive chunk of the patch notes.
  12. do you happen to recall what mission type it was from? (rich.....fabric, metal, or gift?) i'm guessing rich fabric, since it's a synthweaving pattern.
  13. Aaaah....good to know, tnx. I don't use him on my Shadow, so I didn't realize. Thank ya for the info. Now I know for my fledgling Sage.
  14. who all (companions) use techblades? Republic side anyway. i thought Qyzen just used vibro swords and techstaffs.
  15. Yeah, that's where i go to first to find crafting schematics. They always seem to be way cheaper. But it's always a crapshoot on if anything is actually listed. And i'm Rep with a metric crap-ton of red artifice crystals that i have very little use for. So I sell them on there dirt cheap.
  16. Crikey. That makes me sad, on the inside. Would make selling our cross faction stuff waaaay easier since the HTN is so rarely used and inconvenient to get to. I've tried using the HTN on Nar Shadaa and regardless of how cheap you list things....it just doesnt seem to have the traffic or exposure to support sales. Great concept....if only people used it more. I always keep stuff on there, but just b/c i always forget about those items and then when i see the successful sale email i'm surprised and super happy. It's like i just won something free or found money in my jeans pocket i forgot about.
  17. That reminds me of something i have been meaning to try out. Can you have both Imp and Rep toons on the same server, and send mail b/w them? Or can you only send mail to your toons on the same faction within the same server? (Like that other game we no longer mention.)
  18. i agree, they do pop up on the GTN.....but i'm still curious as to their source. because they have to come from somewhere. personally, i seem to get mostly one time use crew skill missions and some cybertech schematics from slicing lockbox missions. but there are other schematics and crafting patterns that come from other skills/missions. anyone know where? treasure hunting lockboxes maybe? augment missions from somewhere? tnx in advance for any insight anyone can provide.
  19. seeing as how the majority of mats used for cybertech (metals/compounds) are obtained from scavenging junk piles and droids for the core pieces and then from the UT missions for grapes....have you thought about ditching slicing and going the standard cyber + scav + under route?
  20. i can't offer anything for all of your questions (as i'm not lvl 50 or 400 yet in artifice), but i can address one by saying i'm not able to find sufficient world nodes to keep up with my artifice skill. if i try to craft same level items i have to get the mats from archeology, but the world nodes always seem to be too low (behind) my level. meaning, if i quest in a zone even with my level i seem to find mostly mats that are one level behind, so i can't craft even level items unless i rely on archeology missions.
  21. sorry someone pooped in your cheerios this morning. the game has flaws, yeah....but it's early. if you're getting so worked up over one small factor in a game, then i suggest taking a step back. maybe try some other area of the game you do enjoy and wait for them to fix the horribly "broken" crafting side (which they do appear to be addressing). or, if you don't enjoy the game..... don't play. either way....best of luck. i hope you get that life changing belt your world seems to revolve around.
  22. perfect! this is exactly what i was wanting to know. you good sir, are my hero. i'm like you in that i seem to always be a few levels above my planet/quest line (they're always green) since i feel the compulsion to do every random side quest those helpless NPC yahoos throw at me. thanks again for the info....this is fantastic.
  23. i'm sure there's a super spiffy website somewhere that details the roughly estimated level range that all classes acquires each companion.....but could anyone throw out some ranges for the Consular please? i understand that Tharan Cedrax is our healing companion (is he good?). as a lvl 21 Shadow Tank, i'm rather interested to have this dude follow me around while i slice and dice bad guys.
  24. mine had previously done the same thing. failed missions sometimes came back with decimal values and i had this crazy weird rating that looked like the value for pi. but then, it just cleared up with the last patch. so now i have whole numbers again. but since then, i (luckily) havent had another mission fail.....so no idea if they are still awarding decimal values or not.
  25. yep, the hood thing is highly annoying. it's gotten to the point that i purposefully don't wear slightly better armor upgrades on my two jedi toons b/c the hoods or princess dress graphics look so bad in my opinion. i forget what old school MMO i played, but it had a /hood option that let you raise/lower the hood. which was great. don't get me wrong....this is a great game, i just reallllly hope they upgrade the armor graphics and visuals to this game. not a huge game changer, since everything else is so detailed and they've done a lot of things right.
