I have made some of these and i really don't know what to ask for them. Also how do you get the schematic for the Imperial PSG? Is there a standard asking price for these? A lot of materials and time goes into making them.

not really, no, they take waaaaaaaay too many components, don't last very long, and cost to much to make for their benifits. And their primary customers just got some real armor. Not to mention they're a bit bugged with shifting vulnerabilities.

I had made a crate of them a few weeks ago and sell them for 10k a piece. I haven't sold any so far, but i think that the stats didn't come out correctly when i made them. Each of them show vulnerabilities even though i haven't moved them to anywhere except to the vendor. I have found that by keeping it equiped and then taking a shuttle, then logging out and logging in. You can keep the stats all in effectiveness without further shifting.
PSG MK3 do work. If you have one equiped, right before a battle, unequip and then re-equip. You can see if its working by looking in your combat spam window. Any damage the PSG prevents will be in there. PSG (when working) do help out a lot in damage reduction, but they really don't last that long.

To the person waring hte same one for ages, try unequping and reequiping ti before a battle...then youll see....
15k a piece for MK3's, and 40k a piece for the Imp prototype ones which are great.
As long as you are aware of the stat shift bug, and that you should equip it just before you enter battle to make sure its working....these are GREAT and can easily tip the balance your way in a PvP fight. 45% stun protection anyone?

Sell them by the crate. The PvPers who really know what they're doing will carry a crate to pop out supplemental coverage when things get sticky. The PvPers who REALLY REALLY know what they're doing will arrange an ongoing deal for hundreds of effectiveness sliced Imp Psgs.
In any case, a single is just a novelty. Sell em in 5x and 10x quntities at a substantial discount to your normal rate. If your server is serious about PvP, then they will fly off the shelves (Imp. PSG esp).
I can't vouch for pricing because I supply my own, but I know there is a massive demand (best defense against stun damage), tempered by the stigma that it is an overpriced luxury consumable. Take a pay cut vs. Composite profit margins, sell in bulk, and believe me, you will create an explosive market.

I'm on Eclipse and sell my MK3s for 8-11K based on volume. I sell about 30 per week which is more than enough to pay the bills.

I sliced my PSG's and came up with no vulnerabilites and all base in the 45 percent range....and I made a bunch of them. I am having no trouble selling them at all for 40k each....I have an imperial shield and the stats on the Mk3 are just as good and more comprehensive...the only real difference i can see is that the imperal has about 3x the hit points. But now boys inflation is insanely high on Corbantis...composite sells for 500k or more in some places....a bit out of line if you ask me. One dude is getting 1mil for kryat fwg5's. Gasp. Thx for the input.

"Yastar"? That's kind of a goofy name to have.

Well Vastar was all ready taken so Yastar it had to be....besides if you look up the name Yastar you will find that is a phantasy name with meaning and history.

Very true. IMHO if the only resist that I can keep on a PSG is stun, it's well worth it. The conditions on these things is absolutely ridiculous though. MKIII's should have the condition of an imp psg, and the imp psg's should be at least twice as high on condition.
