Please stop the whining and charge the customer for the actual work you do. If that means hand-crafted armour is more expensive - so be it.





oh i do..don't worry about that. i have been slowing upping my prices so i don't sell out over night. that is a lot of work you know. and my jedi just feels left out if he can't come out and play

It's not so much about money for me... as anyone on Flurry can attest I make plenty. action costs, nominal... Human Imperial, and I get my faction from my fiance' (human, colonel)... the fact is that right now I charge 750k a suit for faction armor (still too much IMO) they still have to come up with almost 8k faction to put it on. And sice farming faction can only be effectivly done by Master Pilots, there's another huge money sink.


Plain and simpl something needs to be done, some allowance to allow factory runs even on a small scale. This would help bring costs down. It would also be nice if faction costs to BIO link were cut in half, given the speed in which armor decays now.

I think that yes u should learn it and be able to keep it.

But i believe that all armour and not just fractional armour should be hand made only .


This makes armour personal to each crafter .


Just my o[pinion

How does hand crafting make it personal? is there some sort of special feel when the toon puts it on? Does it make the armor fit better? NO... it just uses up more and more of the AS's time. I undersand some people have some sort of joy hand crafting ever single peice of armor.


I to enjoy crafting, in fact I spend 90% of my time in game simply working on crafting or crafting related things, and that's with 2 jedi and a spare undeveloped toon... But the last thing this game needs is for AS's to be forced to hand craft, we're already short on AS's to begine with, and I can barely keep up with demand as it is.. the last thing I need is to hand craft everything and fall even further behind.



No problem is needing to make a way to get faction armor out faster and cheaper so we can see more and more people wearing it, so then the game begines to reclaim the Star Wars feel.
