Spyde Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 As title says.. Remove class restriction or add where its cross faction IE all jedi knight gear can be worn by Sith Warrior.. etc etc for the others. Just add Light/Dark Restrictions.

Stalkz Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Im not so sure your right mate ive done a fair few UWT Missions and last night i got a Schematic for a Jedi Knight / Tropper Heavy Armour (3 Slot Orange Modded legs Recipe) Called "Troopers Leggings" or something similiar, but it had the name Trooper in their title, giving away pretty much who they were designed for. And im not the only person in my guild to get Schematics for the opposing faction. They should make these just a "Heavy Armour" Schematic and not a labeled Schematic rendering them useless for the opposing faction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelKer-Nal Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Or just make the entire market cross faction. That would be better for the economy anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohoni Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 They can't just make the schematics so anyone can use them, because then Jedi would be running around in Sith armor and they don't want that. What they should do, however, is make sure that the random tables are completely separate between Rep and Imp sides, so that nobody on the Republic side will EVER come across a piece of gear or a schematic that can only be used by an Imp character.

BrotherPain Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I'd say either remove the faction requirement, or remove cross-faction recipes from being found with UT. I think two thirds of the recipes I've found on my Guardian has been for Sithies.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaign Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) You have two options, both based on the fact that Nar Shadda has a cross faction GTM. 1. Sell the schematic on the Nar Shadda GTM2. Learn the schematic and sell the products on the Nar Shadda GTM. While I favor changing the restrictions to become based upon Light and Dark rather than class, for now, the system isn't entirely broken. As I said above, you do have options for these schems. They are not useless. Edited December 18, 2011 by Slaign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, I don't want that, either. But it's a simple matter to make the skin on the item depend on the class of the wearer. Or, if you really want to get entertaining, let it depend on the alignment of the wearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, if you really want to get entertaining, let it depend on the alignment of the wearer. I think you are vastly underestimating the complexity of creating an entirely new system that changes appearance based on class or alignment. Coding these things are NOT simple, and no, some If/Then pseudo-code does not represent in any way how it would actually work. The only option they have in that vein is to change the restrictions away from class based and make it alignment based, a system already in existence. However, this would still have the effect of Jedi in Sith armor and vice versa, which would be somewhat strange regardless of alignment. Dark Jedi are not Sith, and Light Sith are not Jedi. Edit: You would also see Bounty Hunters, Jedi, and Sith in Trooper armor. as they can wear the same armor types. This would be bad. No, I'm afraid they really have to keep the restrictions. They could make it so you do not discover cross faction schematics, and in order to obtain them if you want the for some reason, you have to use the black market on Nar Shadda. Still, as it is, you can get rid of cross faction schems through said Black Market. Edited December 18, 2011 by Slaign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, so the "Galactic Trade Network" is actually Planetary in nature? Why isn't it a single auction system no matter where you access it from?

Ohoni Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Not Planetary.... Faction specific. But Slaign said that the Nar GTN is not faction specific, which would indicate that it does not share the same database as the others. Is the Fleet GTN distinct from the Coruscant/Kaas ones too?

If you are not on Nar Shaddaa, you are accessing your faction's GTN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vrumpt Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 They really need to just make it so you'll never get a recipe for the opposite faction. I'm sure hardly anybody knows about the neutral GTN so thats really not a viable solution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tristam_Ward Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 At first people wont be using the neutral faction GTN but in a short time that will be the main one. I would rather make gear to sell to the whole game rather then just my faction. And Id be glad to have recipes used by the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndiusTheGreat Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) There are no class restrictions as for schematics, what are you talking about? Wrong. I've gotten about 5 schematics for Imperial classes only and 2 actually usable by the Republic. I would tweak the suggestion. I don't care if you make the armor faction specific but do us a favor. Imperial items only for imperials. Republic items only for people playing Republic. That way I am not sitting there with a bag full of really great items.... that are entirely useless to me, and everyone in my guild. Crafting should encourage trade but nothing should encourage cross-faction trade. Edited December 19, 2011 by AndiusTheGreat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most AH use is for ones own faction. About the only time the Neutral AH is used, is when transferring stuff from one faction to the other, or trying to sell faction specific items to the other faction.

This +1 I have 3 schematics for armormech and ALL of them are for republic classes, and I'm empire. Either I'm THAT unlucky or there is something terribly wrong here...

That clarifies a few things, not such a big deal now but still we shouldnt be getting cross faction schematics THAT often, I've gotten 4 republic / 0 empire ones for armormech on my sith warrior... sucks...

Dratman Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I was under the impression that underworld trading only gives schematics for sith. I've gotten six schematics so far and they're all sith only. As a Jedi Synthweaver I have to have underworld trading in order to get cloth. So if it does only give sith schematics then all sith synthweavers have an advantage over Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
