RIS, mandolorian, and probably any future special armor...wait i got an idea devs make it so EVERY loot or reward has to go through a crafter...wait it basiclly does. what the fck am i going to do with a schematic or rifle stock? now i have to f'n have 3 types of crafters to get mandolorian armor...thanks Devs you really know how to make a good game here. Why do you hate combat characters. i dont get it!!!!!!! Mandolorians were mercinaries when was the last time you heard of a mercinary armorsmith? "Watch out or hes going to craft!!! AHHHHH!!!!!"
these mandolorians probably learned to craft it themselves which we should have to do with the droids in the cave.

Maybe because it was part of the original design specifications that the economy and all items would be player crafted and that "loot" drops would be inferior to what crafters would make, Be happy there is ANY loot at all for melee types that doesn't need to be processed in some way. This isn't everquest where everyone and their mother gets the same +1532 Robe of Blinding UbernessThatwillbeJunkIn3MonthsWhenANewDungeonComesOut from killing the same guy over and over.

Oh my god, i just beat the hardest npc in SWG...my loot a schematic!!! ok here you go crafters go get rich off the never ending schematic. why dont you make 100 of these and get payed 1 million credits for each. and for me i get what ever it is and 1 million credits...you guys get rich off us. and we see **edit** in return. emperors retreat what do i get for beating it, WOW a schematic and rifle stocks how useful for me. R.I.S. armor is a armorsmith quest, thats fine, we get rich off materials for it. Mandolorian armor, you guys tag along and trust me you will be charging us just for allowing you to craft it for us. This should be a NON crafting reward. it should be a FIXED stat or not because then it adds to rareness. but you should have to collect the materials some how and then have the droids inside the cave craft it. done. now the droids can make different stat armor from it. and i think you should be able to choose. since it is a droid you should be able to tell what it focuses on. encumbrance, resistance, condition what ever you want. ANY player should be able to opperate these droids and choose what they want, the color included. Droid engineers have no place in crafting armor or tailors. armorsmiths have no place here since mercinaries im sure did not consist of crazy crafting armorsmiths...no one would hire a mercinary that only knows how to craft some armor.
and dont start bitching oh we make armor we should get this its not fare we can make credits off it. so you will have 1 billion credits instead of 2. just make some more composite or RIS to get that extra billion

God forbid that this be a MULTIPLAYER online game, that lets some people do what they want by letting them be the businessmen/women they want to be! Please go whine somewhere else.

Let me ask you a question, have you ever seen a peice of RIS? I have seen two jedi, I have seen one peice of RIS. The DEVs add stuff be they don't fix the bugs.

I'm no crafter but let me explain it this way. THIS IS A MASSIVELY MULTIPLAYER ONLINE GAME! There are crafting professions in the game, people like to play these professions, hence and therefore there MUST be a way to let them INTERACT with the rest of the player base. They did this by making most of the good loot that drops craftable by, taa daa, CRAFTERS.

ok owako what does that have to do with it? and i have seen 10 pieces of RIS and 2 jedi, and thats only because of their title.
yes crafting is a profession and i guess i forgot that they need to be included since they are the only ones that can make all the loots now...hmm i forgot that they need more... and i know its a MASSIVE multiplayer game. yes there are crafting professions and you guys are acting like they are sitting in a corner some where. crafters and smugglers are probably the most searched after profession. well docs too. also its not like you guys are crafting this armor. from what i read it says that you simply hit buttons on a droid. no crafting the droid does it. you dont do **edit** but allow us to enter a room. this is why im complaining. RIS armor i dont have a problem with. i have put up with this schematic reward **edit** this long i dont care anymore, infact i stopped doing theme parks. but when you just f'n push buttons on a droid to make it craft it makes no sense. why cant we do this **edit** devs? we would then be allowed to custumize it ourselves...Crafters probably get to wear this too, so again crafters get EVERYTHING!!!! the devs probably never thought of making it so you need an elite combat profession to wear it, and im not just saying commando and bounty hunter, i mean pistoleer,rifleman, heavy swordsman. These would be MERCINARIES!!!! combat professions

Here's a tip for you, Ace, when you get all those looted schematics. DON'T GIVE THEM AWAY. You do realize you have a couple options on deals you can make for the schematic. You can either sell the thing outright for a large chunk of cash or you can get them to use one of those schematic uses on you and give you whatever that is for in exchange for them getting the remaining uses. Pretty amazing concept, eh?
And before you go whining about "poor combat professions" you guys are just as guilty for gouging as some crafters. Wonder why that super duper krayt scatter pistol is so expensive? Try asking the weaponsmith what some combat dude charged him for it. Wonder why armor prices go up? Ask the armorsmith how much they had to pay some combat dude for their bones and hides. The cycle just goes round and round with both sides adding to the problem.

I hate to tell you this but the dev's aren't going to change the way the game is played causeYOU don't like what they are doing. If you want to be the money maker of the game you choose a crafting profession, if you want action you choose a combat profession either way its a PLAYER run economy. Which means just about everything that is good will be made by a player, no matter if its armor, weapons, general crap. You want uber loot thats dropped from NPC's go play EQ. My advice deal with it or quit.

and yes i know of your "concept" ace,but basically they keep the schematic for ever while you get paid for it and what ever it was, but then you blow all the credits on other crafted items. you know why combat professions sell kimo scales for so much ace? because they are hard to get. and if a crafter is dumb anough to buy the first krayt scale he sees then he should get rich fast. i have seen MANY people selling the krayt scales for far less than what people charge for the armor. and composite armor and krayt weapons arent my complaint here ace. if a crafter can get a scatter pistol with 400 dmg on it then sell it high. hell if he gets 200 sell it high and wait for some idiot to buy it from him because it says krayt on it. lots of crafters (not all..thought i better say that because you crafters seem to take it in the wrong meaning) put Krayt Scatter Pisol as the guns name when it was normal materials and no krayt enhanced materials used.
and how did this get into krayt scatter pistols and armor prices...this was about how the devs dont need to make crafters hit buttons on a droid to allow us to get the mand. armor.
