grimere Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Question on a 400 Artifice recipe, Niman Master's Primary Lightsaber, can it be: 1) Reverse engineered to a better saber? 2) Hilt(52), Crystal(52), and Enhancement(52) be reverse engineered?

Anavarra Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 ...[is] the only source of Augments the Slicing Missions, so you'll need to keep running those until you simply get lucky with an Artifact Augment? That is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get Reflex Barrel 23 from the trainer, just like you got 22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donmoocao Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 You'll get Reflex Barrel 23 from the trainer, just like you got 22. Although I'm not totally sure about Armstech, but for Cybertech you can only get up to 22 via trainer. What really sucks is that you can get a 23 barrel/hilt/armoring through a few daily commendations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What really sucks is that you can get a 23 barrel/hilt/armoring through a few daily commendations. Total brain hiccup there. I believe you're correct (I'd have to double check that character's trainer to be sure, but that sounds about right to me!). Regardless though, you cannot get it from reverse engineering a 22, to the best of any knowledge shared here. It's also not consistent with the rest of the system for such a thing to be the case.

firesprite_ea Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 *sigh* sad due to the stupid idea with RE system and this message "you already have the schematic". Was RE blue lvl 49 implants and got 1 purple variant and .... 3 messages that I got the design already. Oh, why did they create a system like that .... On the side note: seems like RE is pretty random for most ppl. I am getting rather "stable" results at lvl 49 - approx 20 tries for one RE (and I believe this is not bad). I still think they should add some sort of +%proc chance for each failed attempt. OR add some sort of buyable item that improves your proc chance (let it cost 100k, do not care, just that it should give you a good boost for that price) AND, most importantly, remove the already discovered schematics from RE list T_T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athunt Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 That is correct. Got some citation, or is that based on RE'ing a whole load (at least several hundred) of Premium Augments and never learning a schematic ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tloris Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 this is by no means a definitive answer, it's only 1 more of the "I can't make it happen" posts, but I'll say it anyway. I'm a synthweaver. I really wanted to have crit-crafted rakata pieces. I have them now. in process of making them, I have RE'd about 40 bracers/belts. I did not learn a recipe. this is substantially more then my other (T1) failing streaks. some time ago, there was talk of crit-crafting rakata trinkets; did we get a confirmation? also, I'd suggest posting SSs of crit crafted saber/pistol and other important SSs in the OP.

Rhaphael Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Yesterday I saw a guy with a dark blue weapon. and I'm wondering what type of item that was. It was not the common blue from prototype/RE items, nor was it the purple from artifacts that you get from world drops or RE. It was a color blue that I've never seen before, any ideas what the origin of this item was? Edited January 30, 2012 by Rhaphael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indege Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Haven't seen it mentioned. You can also change the color crystal on critically crafted weapons. Definitaly a bug. But i don't know if it just doesn't show at first or flat out isn't supposed to happen. At any rate if you put a color crystal in the augment slot it will pop up the color crystal augment. It also seems the default is +endurance orange crystal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a gun, can't remember the exact name though. EDIT: Hmm just checked on Torhead and it shows "Legendary" as being dark blue, that color actually matches what I saw. So that guy had a Legendary weapon? I thought those were not in game / not found yet? Edited January 30, 2012 by Rhaphael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amakiir Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Bounty Hunters get a dark purple Blaster Pistol from one of their class quests. Its color is actually just a bug since it is just an "orange"-weapon (no base stats but fully modable). I am guessing this is the weapon you saw.

Invalid_Integral Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) I read the OP but admittedly did not read all 100 pages of the thread. Have there been any reports of someone reverse engineering an Artifact base item and having it get a prefix with it? Of course we aren't talking about moving to a Legendary quality item here, but just getting a Tier 1 (Redoubt, Critical, Overkill) prefix from an item whose initial recipe learned from the crafting trainer was already purple? Torhead suggests that it's possible to upgrade it even into the tier 2 prefixes. http://www.torhead.com/item/3g2RUSm/rakata-combat-medics-belt Edited January 30, 2012 by Invalid_Integral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually wondering if it's possible to take a Purple base item, RE it and get another purple item but with upgraded stats. For example, take a look at this item. The original recipe you purchase from the trainer is purple. Torhead suggests there are improved purple versions of it. So that's what I'm looking for firsthand confirmation of.

TruongSifu Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I see no reason why you can't. I had a base blue schematic that I bought from the trainer, Arch Savant Bracers that I made into an Artifact Grade Critical Arch Savant Bracers, then into another Artifact grade Endownment Arch Savant Bracers. Once I got it to the second tier it had [sUPERIOR] next to it. If you get an augment slot then it's [MASTERCRAFT] instead. Definitely was not a fun process though... I hope that helps. Whether you can or not, it's gonna be a pain in the butt and very costly because of the materials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rivnen Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Got some citation, or is that based on RE'ing a whole load (at least several hundred) of Premium Augments and never learning a schematic ? Everything in this thread is based off what players have and haven't done and proven themselves up unto this point. Unfortunately bioware decided to leave us completely in the dark as to what is and isn't possible in crafting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
