Howdy all,
I'm just in the process of running off my first batch of PSG's and thought I'd ask a few quick questions here since the search feature is about as helpful as the in-game CSR's. My first batch seemed ok to me, but I really wasn't sure what to experiment on the final product....here are the stats:
Condition - 9786
Energy Resist - 2314
Recharge Rate - 46.7
These stats were made by capping the resists first and using all my left over points in condition, which led to me wonder how important recharge rate is for the PSG. Should I sacrifice on either the max resist or condition in order to increase the recharge rate? How big of a factor is the recharge rate? I realize that pricing is server dependant, but what rough ballpark would you charge for something similar to this? The prices on my server seem to be all over the map for PSGs so using a galaxy vendor search just gets me nowhere.
Thanks for any advice or assistance.

I say max recharge rate after resists. It determines how fast the PSG recover between fights. I don't worry about condition since they can always buy more PSGs from me! The exceptional might be the Imperial Prototype PSG that people want for the mods it gives. Higher condition is more important there since the things are very expensive now and can't be ADK'ed.

Ah, during combat the shield depletes and the recharge rate dictates how fast it comes back...good to know. Where does the shield deplete...does the condition go down and then recover over time or is there another visible stat that shows the depletion? Or does the resistance of the shield drop during combat with the condition just steadily decreasing with usage? I've never used PSGs personally since the CU so I'm not sure exactly how they function in the new system.

The efficiency of the shield drops as it takes damage, which in turn causes the resists to drop. Zero efficiency equals zero resists. The shield will recharge when it isn't taking damage. Recharging causes it to lose some condition.

One last question and then I'll get out of your hair. The efficiency of the PSG's that I just crafted shows as 0%, does this increase over time or is 0% good with 100% being bad?

Disregard the previous question, I just equipped one and answered it myself.
