Thread: Imperial Faction Armor FP Costs
That's what smugglers are for.

I dunnomaybe they can build a delegate feature into the merchant terminals, where you charge both money and faction points
Figuring you can swing a deal with a Smuggler and buy faction at 110 per point, it'd cost you about 2.87 million to get enough FP for a whole set. Divide that by 10, and you get about 287k per suit. Round that up to, say, 300k or 350k per full suit, and that's still a lot cheaper than the 2 million or so it took to buy a full suit of Stormtrooper armor pre-CU. And it's useful now.
I'm willing to bet people will pay upwards of 500k easily for a set of this armor now, which should leave you with a reasonable profit. ![]()

Pre CU faction armor only cost 5fp per part to bio-link because you have already payed the FP for it.
Imperial: 647, Rebel: 119
Costs for me to purchase the schematics are:
Chest - 4031
Boots & Gloves - 512
Pants, Helmet, Belt, Arms - 2051
Total of 19412 for a full suit.
Considering I am "alien scum" I am quite happy with that, thought it would be a lot worse - altho don't get me wrong, it could definately be better

That cost is for a full set of schematics which you can make 10 suits with? Thats the question Im not quite sure I have had the answer to.
The costs I wrote were for a Twi'lek from a planet where the standing was stated for a full suit of Imperial Armour (Helmet, Chest, Pants, Boots, Gloves, 2x Biceps, 2x Bracers, Belt) which I believe are 10 uses each, altho I haven't actually bought them yet.
