I looted 10 Janta Hides (2 sets of 5 whit the same serial number)


The description says Base Effectiveness 3%


And states:


....used to enhance armor segments.


Now the questions.


Are this any good?


Can they be used to make a better (than one whit out Janta hides,) suit of Composite?


How many Janta Hides would i need for a full set of Composite?


How many of them whit the same serial number?


I would apreciate any help. Thanks.

-Yes, they are good. Not spectacular, but if you want an armor with a higher base %, they are good.


-Yes.


-Uhm... this gets complicated. You'll never find more than 6 (usually) with the same serial, and you need those for the segments in factory crates. I guess if you break it down, its like this:


ITEM :: # Of hides needed


Gloves :: 1 (no factory schematic needed)


Left Bracer :: 3 (1 for factory schematic... same goes for rest of the following)


Right Bracer :: 3


Left Bicep :: 3


Right Bicep :: 3


Helmet :: 4


Boots :: 3


Chest Plate :: 5


Leggings :: 4


At the most, you're looking at 29-30 Janta hide for one full suit. If you get lucky and find 5-6 with the same serial, you can knock it down to about 25.


Hope that helps.

It is possible to get more with the same serial. I recently bought 8 Janta hides off an auction with the same serials.

Loots over the last day have variably dropping without serials. Sometimes they will have them later, but not always. Non-serial stuff is nice, you can make schmatics that last much longer with things like that.

I thought making schematics with un-serialized enhancers was an exploit and a bannable offense, or am I wrong? I seem to recall hearing something to that effect about weaponsmiths who did krayt gun factory runs a bit back.

knowing SOE is probably is, but its stupid for penalizing people for using what the game gives them. If they don't wnat people using non-serialized stuff don't let drops drop without serials.

The problem was that there were legendary krayt tissues dropping without serial numbers. Stuff like +181 dmg. All you had to do was make a schematic, and you could put in the normal +30dmg ones with serials and you'd be making tons of incredibly good weapons by cheating the system into thinking you were using the 181's.
