Iraas Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Okay so, as the title says, where are all the Mod Stations? So far while levelling I've been to Balmorra, Nar Shadaa, Tatooine and now Alderaan and despite having it tagged in my world map, I can't see one Mod Station in the starting zones where the Mod Vendors are. As a result I've probably spent 50k or more on Modding my gear. Any ideas where they are? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a left over from Beta, not removed because they may have a function in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you will note, the fact that I have spent X credits on modding shows that I know how to CTRL-Right Click. Mod Stations let you mod for free as opposed to spending 10-15k per gear item to remove mods. At least thats what happened on the starter planet where the Mod Stations were introduced.

Serpenttt Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Is this true? I honestly have not even tried using a mod station and I've been here since release lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aarka Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) Mod stations definitely do not reduce the cost of modding. It's free on the starter planet because you don't pull any mods out. You just place them in. Which is always free anyway. Edited April 12, 2012 by aarka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Wish some people would actually read and comprehend before posting.) i saw some1 saying that in chat a few days ago aswell.... so i went to koriban (with one of my lvl 50 chars) my starter planet and wanted to test it myself. as soon as i removed one mod out of my chest part it came up with them..."it will cost you XXXX credits". i stoped there cause for me it looks like you still have to pay even that you use the mod-station Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's simply not true mate. Unless they changed something recently. I performed several tests, and it costs exactly the same to pull mods from gear no matter if you do it with CTRL + Right click or on a table. Putting mods in gear is always free.

Iraas Posted April 12, 2012 Author Share Posted April 12, 2012 Ah well, looks like I was under a misunderstanding/misinterpretation from Korriban. My bad. Would be nice if a feature like this was included at least for pre-50's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NasherUK Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) I think originally you couldn't use ctrl-right click and had to use a mod station, but they just never removed them. I think if you use a mod station you should be able to mod for free, or at least at a massively reduced price :/ Edited April 12, 2012 by NasherUK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slakke Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 You don't need to remove the old Mod you can just insert the new and thats Free, but the old mod is destroyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwan Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 It only costs credits, if you pull some mod out of the item - not replacing it with another one (and therefore destroying the previous mod), which usually happens during leveling. I seldom had any need pre-50 to keep any mod where I got a new, better one instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really nice that you like to raise the dead....BUT...you necro'd a thread where the last post was in APRIL to say THAT? Seriously? When a simple search would have informed you that they do indee have a function now...they allow you to add augments. Yikes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tausser Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Yes, I was going to say - don't you need a mod station now to add augmentations slots to items? They really need to add a mod station to Nar Shaadaa since there are GTNs there where you can buy, you know, augmentation slot upgrade kits, which you then have to travel to fleet to install.

Opiam Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I have been playing this game for about 2 months and have only now realised (after reading this post) that I don't need to find a modding station to mod. I have been making trips to the fleet ,and while there running between the trade terminal and modding station to get mods put in and removed. Feel like such a noob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cylis Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Modification Stations are still required to install augment slots into unaugmented equipment, so they are not totally useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
