Crew Skills
« on: November 29, 2011, 12:24:08 PM »
Just thought I'd stick a quick post up to discuss what crew skills we'll be taking at launch.

I'll be rolling with Artifice, Archaeology and Treasure Hunting. So, if you need mods or high end Lightsabers, I'll be your man.

Yyan is going Synthweaving as far as I know.

"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

In beta I went Cybertech/Scav/UT. Enjoyed Cybertech, crated weapon/armor modifications aswell as upgrades/gear for droid companions. Interestingly, the item rating level actually increases with the modifications you put in them. I had a rating 28 blaster pistol ,and fully upgraded it with blue mods i made/bought and it ended up lv 50. You can also get some mods which add extra bonuses, like raw weapon dmg etc. I can see it being potentially lucrative, as I think most people will go for gear or weapon crafting.

i also noticed whilst doing artifice that the "hilt" mod determines the level needed to equip the saber and the level of the other mods that could then be applied.

So if you like the look of your starting saber it is completely possible to continually evolve it.

Yeah, I noticed that. Got a really nice Lightsaber for 16 Coruscant commendations, with a nice hilt model, and a slightly different activation/deactivation sound. I'll likely make that my regular saber and continue to upgrade it.

Synthweaving doesnt make heavy armours

Armourcraft makes medium/heavy armour for non force users.

I assure you it was making heavy armour for my Sith Warrior. Which can and does use heavy armour.  Which was a surprise to me as Id seen things that didnt suggest it could not create that level of armour, in the lead up to the weekend too.

I know an sw is a forceuser, but the armour a synth does for them is great.

Pretty sure Synthweaving does make heavy armour, with Str and End on it.

Armourtech makes heavy armour with Aim/End for Troopers and BHs.
