I was screwing around with some resources today, added in a few "unorthodox" materials for the hell of it, came out with tantel that looked like this:
Special Protection:
20% Energy
14% Kinetic
Effectiveness:
12% Blast
12% Electricity
12% Stun
12% Lightsaber
12% Acid
Base has EVERYTHING 12%, including lightsaber =/
Anyone know what the deal is on the lightsaber stat? If there's any catch to it like the PSGs?I tried making the Tantel with different resources, didn't work. Tried logging off, logging back in, the lightsaber % was still there. Got into a fight with a jedi, after the fight, LS % was still there. Traded it to a friend and traded back, lightsaber % was still there. Just wondering if this is a bug or if this is actually how it should be (took me f'in forever to get these resources!)

goes away just like the PSG LS protection -not sure if dropping an ADK on it will keep it there.

We all know Tantel is LS resist at creation. If you crate it like a PSG and pull it out before a fight then the LS resist will appear. The problem is LS is AP-2 and armor is AP-1. Therefore you need at least 25% base for the armor to be effective or else you would take more damage than not wearing armor.

I just found it interesting because I only got the Lightsaber protection when I used a specific combination of metals and avian bone. =/
But last night, someone submitted a bug report when they saw my armor, so I got talked to by a dev....he manually removed the LS resistance =/

Talked to by a dev? 
I have been making high base tantel for months, 26-27% stuff with ls resists, leaving it crated helps, same bug as psgs as far as I can see, leave it uncrated or shuttle and ls resists vanish. No idea whether ls resists are intended or not on both tantel and psgs, seen so many conflicting statements from soe on it. Anyway, cu makes it a moot point now.
No one has ever contacted me dev/csr etc etc for making tantel
for someone to report you for it sounds crazy.
