Architect Archive

When they unroll starships, architect's have gotta be the ones to build them. =)Cha Ching!

or maybe they will just add a new class like politician =D CHA CHING! =D

just playin, but if arch. gets starships.. i will be very mad =/

Or maybe they will use them as cash sinks an make them npc bought...

Crafting a starship....MEH!

Thats gotta take some resources :X

But yeh im sure they will come up with something stupid, like master artisan as they did with the bikes and the Gp Power units ( THAT I NEED SO MUCH! THANK YOU SOE! THANK YOU! "¤&!@£ )

Pffft!

dont even mention the words crit fail related to a starship

I don't think it would be a crit failure, just a breach in the hull but hey the guy won't notice it until he starts flying anyway right?

I don't really see how an architect would be the sole component for a starship, there should be a new prof for that. Now maybe have an arch segment for the inside, a DE component and a weaponsmith component and yatta yatta to make it overall so everybody gets use out of one. But you can't just put a mobile home in space, a winnebago perhaps...

You don't think Architects are useful now? There are over 100 schematics, and no elite crafters can make much of anything without harvesters. Not to mention the fact that houses would be full of junk, and there'd be no player cities without Architects =)

I said most usefull dhcp

I forsee a new skill tree for starships, which will also include other land vehicles. I've heard through the grape vine that adding the 3 vehicle schematics to master artisan is just a quick temp way to get vehicles into the game. A new skill tree I think is in the works.

And really, would you want an architect designing the space shuttle or the space station? SOme kind of Engineer elite off the engineer branch in Artisan is the way to go. Maybe just a whole tree for Engineer. Who knows, but as a master architect myself, I hope we DON'T get starships, makes no sense to me.

Everything with space is going to be new skill trees. The crafting of starships, the skills to pilot them....

I imagine a new elite profession off of artisan ship builder.

Branch1 engines

Branch2 hulls (in this branch are the schematics for ships)

Branch3 weapons

Branch 4 shields

Who knows maybe it will be 4 new professions

1. Ship builder, builds the hull and does the final assembly for ships. Branch 1 fighters, branch 2 freighters, branch 3 shuttles, branch 4 armor.

2. Weapon builder, builds the weapons and the ammo. Branch 1 energy weapons, branch 2 missles, branch 3 projectile, branch 4 munitions.

3. Shield builder

4. Engine Builder

Being a miner will be the most useful profession in the future. People are going to want the best of the best for their ships. The people willing to track down that rare resource are gonna make a ton of cash.

I expect that random unfounded speculation will increase until after the expension is released.

I hope we do get it. If Space Craft goes to a new profession, I'll be dropping Architect so fast my machine will lock up! As an architect for the last 3 months, I have seen my machines get bounce-nerfed twice, consumption get hosed, shematics broke, no-functioning items(lights), 10 bazillion Holo archs selling what they make at or below cost (furniture & houses, 2 of our lines, that don't use the 3rd experimentation), the fact that this has gone on since inception so no one is really looking for my wares anymore ( I read about those staying busy, but it ain't happening on my server anymore) animation broken and not even an acknowledgement from the Dev team to our correspondent. I like Architect, but it is a broken profession that cost huge amounts of money to maintain, only to be reduced to being a miner (whichis, in effect, what we are anymore).

"Who knows, but as a master architect myself, I hope we DON'T get starships, makes no sense to me."

Amen.

I've got enough work to do.
