Totally false , im force sensitive with : master merchant / master artisan / master architect / marksman pistol 3

I have done all badges alone , without buff , without armor , but with a combat probot

Last time I looked I only got 10 lot spaces. If I mined with 10 lots instead of 98 lots it'd take 9.8 times as long, or 176.4 days per branch.

Um I thought you had until the end of the current village cycle to unlock the branch you are working on. That's what 3 weeks? 21 days?

176.4 != 21 days. Maybe I'm missing something here, I'm not glowie yet but that seems to me itsimpossible for an architect to unlock unless he starts farming stuff just for jedi process now. So much for actually being an architect to make stuff. I'm already exp capped on my structure exp so I can't stock up more exp now for later. If I start farming resources now using my6 lots available, 10 if I take down my factory and my house I figure I will have the resources in what...a year or so. That doesn't mention the 3 weeks for each villiage cycle.

Like I said maybe I'm missing something but the way I'm seeing it currently if you want to be an architect your not going to have a jedi.

Please do a little research on the subject matter before saying something is impossible. You have 3 weeks to unlock a tree. That is very different than completing all the skill boxes of that tree. To unlock a tree all you need to do is the quest associated with the tree. You have 3 weeks to do a quest, once it is unlocked you can grind out that exp at your liesure. However I do agree that crafters got shafted with the FS exp costs.

We need to start getting people posting on the forums. It is the only way the devs will understand that something is wrong with the game and get it fixed.
They say not many people are unhappy, they say that because everyone is playing the game rather than posting about problems.
We need to drastically increase the % of posters on this forum or they will continue to take forever to fix the problems.

does force repair really work ? I doubt it ?

The word on the Weaponsmith boards from those that got a free unlock in Force Experimentation is that nearly every experimentation attempt is an amazing success. They say it's roughly the equivelant of having a '13th' experimentation point (assuming you're already a 12-point smith, I guess). How good this would be for Architects, I don't know. But it's pretty good for WS, and for AS, Chef and Med-crafters as well, I'd bet.

I'll second this as untrue.

Master Artisan, Master Architect, Master Merchant, Politician

POI badges solo'd. Jabba's palace solo'd with a combat droid and buffs. Warren solo'd with no help. Corvette was a guild event, but as I generally run it with my combat alt as navigator/intelligence officer, I ended up taking this role with my non-combat alt too. Did most of the'mission objectives'for the Destroy by myself with 20 minutes to spare (never mind that half the time was a sprint from the cloning area after being killed yet again, it's still doable). No buffs, no armour, no weapons.I did most of the Imperial theme park solo'd too when my escort had to go eat dinner. If I had thought of getting buffed and picking up a combat droid, I could have solo'd it.

Anyone wants any help doing this, I can help if your on Bria or Kauri. If you pay for my travel fees, I can be your guide on other servers. Power to the crafters! The pen is mightier than the sword and all that.

And yes, the ratios are way out of proportion for Architects. Honestly, I don't care if a grinder wants to grind using statues, by all means, please do so. I have some ore and gemstone I'll sell them do at the standard 3cpu. ::looks at her stockpiles of gemstone and ore:: Scratch that, just gemstone. I need the ore. Can't part with the ore, nope. I have harvesters and buildings to build.

Gungan Statue Grind - mathmatical conclusion

Bottom line first:

# gungan statues to
master all FS crafting
boxes including novice = 33000

# gungan statues to
master one branch = 8166.66

Assumptions:
1 gungan statue = 3000 resources
1 build = 5250 Struct XP (in practice mode)
1 build = 150 FS Craft XP (when converted 35:1)

1 FS crafting branch FS XP required = 1,225,000
All FS boxes & novice FS XP required = 4,950,000

Therefore:
1 unit resource = .05 FS Craft XP
1 FS Craft XP = 20 units of resources

4.95 mil FS XP requires 99 mil resources
99 mil / 3000 = 33,000 total gungan statues

1.225 mil FS XP requires 24.5 mil resources
24.5 mil / 3000 = 8166.66 gungan statues
