Then the answer is no, just hover over the item and it will say if you can learn a schematic or not.

Stealth char from Imperial side can enter the city if stealth-ed. I've tried my self and none of the guards not the guards on mounted cannons detect you if cloacked. This mean that on pvp side they are free to roam around and kill ppl freely. I know it's a open world pvp, but the city is as far as I know a safe heaven for republic players within the city limits. This needs to be sorted ASAP since there are Imperial players that use this to gain Achivements from this oversight.

Eric, we both have been around for the same amount of time in this game. You should remember that once there was no crafting planned for this game. Me and a lot of others made that happen, and now you are about to ruin it yet again....... In the past you reduced the amount of mats per tier due they being to MANY, and now you plan to add even more ?? For what ever reason?, The old Dev team did ruin crafting to the point that doing nothing but a extremely few items was even worth making. Now you increase the amount of mats needed, with the poor excuse that we gain more, it's the SAME thing..... This what you are doing are NOT play it your way, it's play it OUR way yet again. I can only speak for my self, I've been on forums since mid 2009 in an attempt to get among other things crafting when we where told it was not planned back then. I've been playing since Beta, and I'm still here. But you will only accept so many mistakes before enough is enough. Not that one more or less matters in the end. But should you mess this up or not you, the ones that work on crafting, there will be one less around. I've tried over the years to accept what's been going on an work with it. I worked hard on the old forums to have crafting added in the first place. Now, at times it feels like that was a huge mistake on my part. Revise what you are doing again, make sure crafting is useful in 6.0. or do us all a favor and kill it, end the pain. When something ain't fun anymore and a chore with no reason in the end, that's the end. With the history of the PTS versions for 6.0 so far and yes I've tried them, you utterly missed the ball park. Oddly, one would have thought the others did learn something, al tho you have some but it's FAR FAR from good. For me personally I will give you ONE last chance to get the act together. Do or Do not, there is NO try!

Could not agree more with you on this one. Most and I do that today, since it's simpler to use the grid system to sort them and then you know what you have and what you need to collect.

Al tho tho the points you getting is higher in 6.0 but..... 300 > 301 takes 160K points

I second that, I've been here long long before this even got to live. Altho I never bought the CE version I've been here from day 1

Well you can, true. But I for one report them and let all know what the are up too. I for one don't do what you suggest, and for my part I never will. I will tell you what I tell in Gen chat when ppl say just about the same thing, no hard fellings towards you tho. I never have nor will I ever have my ref link used, IF I need CC I pay for them

I suggest you go to your own account page and read the rest. Here is a small part. Refer a Friend Invite your friends by sending them the following referral link. Tell your friends to use the link as the first step in creating a new account or logging back in to an existing account. As friends join and become Subscribers Note the part that says FRIEND!

You and me booth then I do the same, I even play char I hardly even considering playing if not for this reason. I pick a small planet since I know I can with the systems as it is get to that. I get my char to 15+ then change to another char and repeat the same thing all over again. Should they change this, I'm with most in here I will simply STOP. I will NEVER bother if the way to do it gets a tiny bit harder then what it is. I for one have a full time RL job, Wife, a house, 2 cats and a Dog, and RL friends. I don't plan to spend every min I have to play this to grind conquest that's never going to happen. And as others pointed out, some of us have been here for the full 8 YEARS and we've done it ALL. To pick what you do is fun, to be told what to do don't work. For those that same it's simple, not ALL have 150% bonus, I don't, I got 95% I don't get SH's or unlock them for simply the bonus, I use them for SH's not a Bonus item. So in the end, if they change it, I'm OUT too.

Hello all. Been away for a week on holiday with the wife To tired atm to write something down atm so I will link this that I saved before I left. Second post does tell it all for that part I would think http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=966175

Forgot to add. Going away for a week, so next replay is next weekend for me. Until then take care.

Ooo I fully agree with your there. They shouldn't be free. But since it's been years since they came out with the ships. They lowered the cost from the 50 mill I once paid, to 8 today. They haven't changed the unlock cost or way to do it. I don't mind to have some way to get items to unlock them, or cost I have an issue with the time it does take for small guilds or private ones to do it. There is really no harm in change how it's done, since to get the benefits they added you need to grind levels anyhow. I on my own have gotten to level 5 I just hope they do alter it so I might unlock and deco it. I use it as a private SH for my Imp char. Don't hurt to ask now does it

Well I will be gone for a week, holiday with the wife and dog. So until we see each other again. Take care have fun

I know we can craft modded 258. I have those schems too. We both know that 1 part is not that "easy" to get too and as someone pointed out, none for sale on he's server.

Yeah I see your point. It's rather simple. How many of the player base use crafted armour, offhand, Weapons that is NOT 258 for there main char or char they play often, for me it's none what so ever. We all know BW makes items most are not keen on to use as you pointed out your self. To craft Aug, Barrel, Hilts, Ear, relics are a far cry from all that can be crafted. That exclude main weapons, offhand, armour is it from Synth or Armour mech. We can always have them do it the other way for a change, how's that. ALL you loot regardless where you get it from is non modded. I wonder how the player base would like that concept

What I am getting at to make this simple. Just let us buy the schematics from the trainers. Have some part "hard" to get within REASON. Ie, NOT Ops, PVP. in NO shape or form. Since we will get gear from anything and everywhere in 6.0 anyhow. To have us now buy schematics from Ossus was one thing, then GATE that schmatics need behind OPS makes them more or less totally useless. Just look at the number of ppl that is on Ossus and NEED XXXXX for WEEKLY WB!

To have them let use make modded end gear items. At the moment the last we know is that we can craft end game gear that's non modded. Simple ain't it. And place 1 part needed behind NiM is to me as the same as give us non modded armour. Point is still, Since day one as far as I remember every "end game" items have been non modded. the simple question is why. Still GATE it behind OPS. is not the answer, since that takes it away from 90% of the people that play.

How is Moving money from one char to another char a money sink ??????????????? Beside that totally wrong logic explain to us with apparent less IQ how 1 room can be worth 400+ Mill to unlock ? More so, what you just said so if I shell out 400 mill on GTN that money is gone form the game then ???. WE both now it's a NO!

Well. I bought my ship for private use Ooooo 4 years ago or so. Since then, I've unlocked ZERO rooms. Not due to the 5 mill cost, simply due to NO Frameworks. With the change to CQ I've invaded small planets for a month now and with some effort I made the 170K goal. I know it's not HARD, point is, for it the have any value you want as many BLUE as you can get that means get 1 to 15K log off said char and REPEAT. Now that's NOT fun what so ever. Last week I did 16 of them, fun hell no, I did it this week too, but for me that's IT!!!!! Soon my free time is up and work comes along, Family, RL things that needs to be done. Playing this game just to cap as many char as you can for the REMOTE possibility to one day open a room........ 4 years later I have 2 Purple, 1 was a gift many years ago, and around 80 Blue ones. That means I will shy 60 Blue for ONE single room, and that's not much to write home about. They need either make us an option to get the frameworks we need in another way or simple have them removed in 6.0. The money sink is still there 75 mill for the ship unless they change that. To me that's good reason as money sink as any.

Yeah, that rings a bell. But then again, why is ALL The gear up to date that we can craft non modded. 258 you can mod with bought schematics and we ALL know that's not an option at this stage. So far EVERY high end item a crafter can make, Weapon, offhand, Armour what not is ALWAYS non modded. So how many NON modded items do your end game char use ?. for my 30 level 70 char on DM the simple answer to that is ZERO

The first part in what you said. I agree with that conclusion, but have you considered. WHY then make crafted armour non mod ?

What you are saying it totally correct, then one can ask them self, WHY does BW once again plan to have crafters only make NON MOD end game gear ?. There is no logic behind it beside shaft crafters once more in 6.0 with that mind set. You still have all options to you. Do Ops. Do PVP. Do PVE. Do Weekly's Buy of crafter Buy of GTN Craft your self. THAT is play it your WAY. Not well how once again can we make pointless limits to crafters to make there items "useless" once more. I know, let them craft end game gear, but with your the ability to MOD em. No one is forcing anyone to get there gear from a crafter regardless. No one is hurt if I was to have Ie BiS at 75, not that it will happen, but even IF that was to happen. They already said, PVP will Bolster to MAX. so that's not an issue. The rest, PVE and Ops, will only help said player or group.

The point with the example was this. IF I was to give you 1 free chest piece Would you pick the 1 Non modded one 2 The modded one As I've said before, BW in the live stream already said we will be able to craft top end gear that takes the new items, just not MODDED ones. I know about the 258, I have all those schematics, cost a lot too and sadly as we both know, 1 part is the hard to get one. Still, WHY craft or BUY a crafted part regardless if it's armour, weapon, offhand or anything else IF you can't change the items in them. To me both now and back in 2009 , I will say the same thing. REMOVE CRAFTING then! Either we craft items of USE or just REMOVE it. Simple ain't it Regards

Then my question to you is. Who does it hurt ?, and more so why ?. they already said we will be able too craft the BEST, only that we can MOD them. So that we are getting BiS at 75 due to crafting is rather moot. Still, WHO and WHAT does it hurt ?. How is any way of the strech does it impact you if I would be given even FREE BiS then I reach 75 ?. None what so ever since PVP will Bolster to MAX. Ops still bolster. PVE Matters to none other then me. So for the final time, why and WHO does it affect if we can craft end gear that you can mod. I NEVER said BiS gear mind you.

Just as Casi said. Lets take an example. Chest piece. They look the same, they have the same EXACT same stats. Looted you can mod. Crafted you can NOT mod. What one would you pick, the looted one The answer to that is rather simple as Casi just pointed out. Would you waste around 500K on mod slots on a non mod chest piece NO. There for why would I pay said item when I know I can only use it for so long and I can't change the items in it. come new gear I need to re-slot it again for a lot of money. I for one hardly bother with Aug now for most my char, since I know that even IF they are modded and I can rip them out I will likely swap them all out come 6.0. Sure it is a money sink but a poor one at that, we have had non modded crafted armour for the last 8 years and look what that gotten us, nowhere. I have NEVER crafted armour for any of my many char over the past 8 years that's non modded gear. Since there is still no reason to once again have crafter non modded gear all that will do is leave us in the same state again, no need to buy the schematics not craft any of it once again. Since IF we for once can craft modded end game gear if leave us all with the option how to get that said gear. More so, then crafted gear has a reason to be used with Aug and you can keep the shells but swap out the items inside them. That's the whole point with this, Since not all might want said stats on what BW think you should have, You might end up want to swap a Enh or mod out but with crafted gear you can't since you can't mod it. thus it makes it useless for both PVP and PVE at end game. They have already said, you will be able to crafted end game gear but NOT modded, that's what like them to change. Simply, let crafter craft top of the line end game gear that you can swap out Armour, Mod, Enh in just as you can all you LOOT. Regards.
