bladenine Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Forgive me if this has been posted already but I cant seem to find a post as to where to find this. Its used in making lightsabers but I cant seem to locate it. Any info would be most appreciated.
copasetic Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) They drop from the last bosses in Hard Mode Flashpoints or from any boss in Normal Mode Eternity Vault and Normal Mode Karagga's Palace. They are Bind on Pickup so you must do these yourself if you ever want to craft endgame items. Edited January 10, 2012 by copasetic
bladenine Posted January 10, 2012 Author Posted January 10, 2012 Ahh ok I though as much thanks for the info.
Autumnsbane Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Gee thanks...wish I had seen this post before spending thousands of credits on recipes requiring materials I will never be able to acquire. Home run Bioware!
Ravrohan Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I don't know how it is for crafts besides Artifice, but unless its the visuals I'm after, why am I going to craft a R120/lvl48 lightsaber when I'm already doing HM flashpoints? Can they get an augment slot?

Can they get an augment slot? Yes, they can get an augment slot. Between that, the unique skins, and the removable basemods coming in 1.2 that will allow you to remove the mods from your raid drops and put them in crafted, its actually probably a good idea to start crafting some of these now. I expect prices of critically crafted gear will soar after that.

I don't much like the two appearances but I can live with the lord scourge looking saber. The other one looks like an unfinished lightsaber.

DarthDemens Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Really...if this is supposed to be an end game weapon...why is it a level 48 weapon and not level 50? Because of the default mods it comes with. It's not supposed to automatically have the best of everything, which is what it would be if it came with all level 50 mods. It's a level 48 Req weapon that is probably still going to be as good as whatever weapon you have at 50 before you start adding in the Daily rewards. Yes, its kind of odd that you need BoP mats from a level 50 FP in order to make a level 48 weapon, but it does make some sense.
Ravrohan Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I think it makes sense solely because you can upgrade it to become better than a raid drop weapon (once we have 1.2) otherwise not so much. Right now at lvl 49 My sentinel wields a couple of R124 hilt lightsabers with R22 enhancements, easily better than the R120 lightsaber we're talking about. But once you craft one with an augment slot, its not hard to see how good that 5 slot weapon can be. Once we have the 1.2 patch, you can take your R140 rakata saber, pop out everything, and put in the stat augment of your choice. Instantly better than the next guy's R140 rakata weapon.
