Jaren_Kincaid Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 As I wander around TOR in my adventures, I have collected a huge number of crystals of different colours. Can anyone tell me what they are for? Some of them are labelled "Grade 2 green power crystal", etc., so I thought I could use them to upgrade my lightsabre, but evidently not. So what are these for, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostlyKills Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Those crystals are used for the crew skill artifice. You can make color crystals out of them to put into your lightsaber assuming you have the required level of artifice and the require character level to equip it.

justinc Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Those are crafting materials for artifice oand other professions that make crafted gear. You need to pick up the corresponding crew skills to use them ps. you can also sell lots of them on GTN for good money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which would be the best skill to have in order to craft colour crystals for lightsabres? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamon Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 "Artifice" is the crafting skill that directly benefits from those crystals, and also allows you to craft them into various upgrades for your light saber! The Gathering skill "Archeology", and the mission skill "Treasure Hunting" work hand-in-hand with "Artifice" to help you gather the required mats for those upgrades. If you do take "Artifice" for crafting, I would strongly suggest you grab the other two ( Gathering, and Treasure Hunting) to help support your crafting skill.

Jaren_Kincaid Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 I have archaeology as one of my skills, but I don't really know how to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthshnooky Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 I have archaeology as one of my skills, but I don't really know how to use it. Right-clicking on crystal formations and artifacts that you find out in the world. Also, if you hit "N" and click on the skill you can select missions to send your companions on to gather more materials. This is an excellent way to spend all your money, however, so it's better to stick with gathering out in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been sending my companions on Archaeology and Diplomacy missions, so my scores in those are quite high now, but I seem to have hit an impasse with Synthweaving; despite directing my droids to craft, I can't advance beyond 60/400 points. Why would this be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would this be? Go see your Crew skills trainer to get new schematics. Only the highest level crafting schematics you can use will upgrade your crafting skills.

The latest schematics require it, but I don't remember ever seeing it anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erevan_Kindelar Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Do you know where I can get Fibrous Nylite Solution? The latest schematics require it, but I don't remember ever seeing it anywhere. From what I can recall from my Artifice days, that is a result from the second tier of Archaeology missions. When you are in the Archaeology mission list, look at the top right of the Mission list, and you will see a level range drop-down list. Change it from the 10-16 setting to 17-24, and you should get the "Slaves of Begeren" or "Acqueducts of Haffrin" missions which I think are the ones that drop FNS.

Fercil Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 You can buy that from a crew skill vendor, he's usually located near the crew skill trainers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
