Hi ya,

I was wondering if it is safe to start getting resources to make some new armour yet... I have been putting it off because
  1. My thousands of pre-CU layers I wanted to have "just in case" all read 0 protection stats and I think are now millions worth of resources wasted
  2. I don't want to craft a bunch of layers, segs and cores just to have a patch comes that makes them worthless
  3. I am kinda holding out for the factory times and resources requirements to be relaxed. Right now I could by a small space-ship fleet for the cost of a good suit of armour


Thanks!

Edit: Fixed a typo.

i have been making armor on a per-suit basis. not making hundreds of layers or cores, just what i need for one suit at a time.


that way - I minimize my losses in the even of a silly little patch that would maybe make primus layers obsolete.

Are pre-CU layers really garbage now?
Is there anyway to get a CSR to give them some stats back? What about stun and blast layers? It would be really nice is stun was converted to Primus

LONG LIVE THE EMPIRE! (At least for another movie or two)

Does it irratate the hell out of anyone else that weaponsmith's pre-CU components are now more valuable then post-CU componets while our pre-CU layers are absolutely useless and segs seem pretty low compared to post-CU crafted ones?

/sigh

well you on valcyn.... 1st think unless you have plexite amorphous gemstone ....300day spawn

you cant put in energy layers LOL.

vintrium extrusive ore is rare as hell and gravatonic fibreplast is sh** we are talking OQ 45 SR 35 kinda stats lol

basically its nigh impossible to make good 4 layer energy recon for those jedi fights unless you have a resource kit and heavenly luck.

even primus layers aint great.

was speaking 2 ur bro about that lastnight skinny... but im only really equipped to do recon right now and he said its taken

on unlayered i used 50/50 good/crap resources got kinetic 4500 / energy 6500 unsliced recon armour... with some better resources and eventually energy lairs would hope to push this a fair bit higher
