I just finished mastering architect last week after finally getting to the point of high impracticality of not having it with running a player city. I had no idea before that moment that the resources for master furniture are so messed up. Has anyone ever heard why they made them so wacky? I don'tunderstand at allwhy something like this would have such horrible requirements for every single piece. Master Tailor has nothing like this. Do these things spawn anywhere near regularly? I'm going to run out of money before I even get everything I needed to make any money found

its not like you have to worrie about quality. i mean you can go to dath and kill a rancor for 200 units of hide. plus with the new patch comming out the resources should spawn more often. that solves all your problems

"Which did you like better? 'Jedi' or "The Empire Strikes Back?"
"Jedi"
"Blasphemy!"
"'Empire' had the better ending. I mean, Luke gets his hand cut off, find out Vader's his father, Han gets frozen and taken away by Boba Fett. It ends on such a down note. I mean, that's what life is, a series of down endings. All 'Jedi' had was a bunch of Muppets." -Thanks go out to BrainMandinga for the AWSOME sig!

Endorian Wooly........... GURRECKS.. I got 15k in 1.5 hours doing missions (by my self), *these guys are tough, bring your A game)

Dathomirian Leather... RANCORS... Do I have to explain these guys?? lol.. Get a Group.. Better yet,, find a jedi grinder with scout (they are out there)

Kelsh Cooper ............ Spawns pretty regularly

Titanium Alum............ Spawns pretty regularly

Pholokite Extrusive Ore .......... Dont get me started on the spawn rate here lol

Thallium Copper ........ Spawns pretty regularly

Ionite Intrustive ......... Last spawn was 3 weeks after launch. (just kidding ) but it's not that common get a bunch lol


Of course I am speaking about my server, but I watch the spawns

Well, it takes a few weeks to get those resources together, but its very doable.
And once there is a spawn, just get a few 100k of it and you'll never have to worry about it again.

If you think this is a pain, try Weaponsmith. They need a ton of specific resources and high quality too. I think we got off easy, only the Pholokite can be tough to get, and the Endorian Wooly Hide can be expensive if you don't know a Ranger who can hunt for you.

The only thing i have trouble finding is the kelsh copper, i have 100k left of the pholokite ore and over 2 million of various ionite ores. I have noticed that since the last time this subject was brought up last year, the spawns of the ores has increased.

Architects are naughty and must be punished.


SOE hasn't said this explicitly but we should have gotten the hint by now.



just joking of course. I assume they did it to make master stuff a little more hard to make and therefore a little rarer. But they didn't use the same logic across the board with other crafting professions, so who knows.

The only one I've had any trouble getting is the Pholokite. I have yet to find any. I will eventually I suppose.

Save your BDSM fantasies for th RP threads.



Seriously, yeah, the spawn rate for some of these materials sucks. I've got a stash of Pholokite from about 6 months ago and I haven't seen any since. Ionite is also kinda tough to find on Flurry, but I've got some. As for the hides, I just check the bazaar and look at all the sales in the galaxy. I can usually find a good number of hides after a minute or two of searching. Dath leathery is easy to get, Endorian Wooly (hell, ANY kind of wooly) is a bit harder to get, but persistance pays off and you WILL get some, just gotta keep looking.

Are you on Flurry or Starsider (like it says in your profile)? If Starsider, you just missed a spawn on Dant. Might be some for sale somewhere; I missed all but 2 days myself.

Well, I caught a Kelsh just as it started and by the end I've got over 600K of it, and that was with only 5 BER13 heavies on a 77% spot. I have plenty of hide because those 2 were the way in which I've gotten hide for tailoring - but according to a couple long-term architect friends on Scylla, some of the other stuff is really obnoxious.


I understand the making the challenge part - but this isn't like weaponsmith where your master furniture runs the risk of upsetting the balance of PVP - though it would be great if we could throw chairs.

I used to threaten that I'd drop a cloner on someone, PVP as an urban planner is pretty funny
