I know many of you out there have a Smuggler alt and a MAS alt, and you may be working out little schemes in your head to reduce your faction costs. Well hear's the way it works normaly.

Your MAS needs 20k faction to get a full set of schematics (this seems about normal on most planets). Now to get that your Master smuggler Colonel needs to buy 23,600 faction, this will cost him 1,888,000 at the standard 80 CPP and costs your MAS 94.4 CPP in reality.

Now hear's the trick, both your toons need to get inspiration buffs. That gives you an extra 10% bonus when doing all this, hear's the number with both toons under this as well.

Your MAS still needs 20k faction, but with the bonus you'r smuggler needs to delegate 18,200 points of faction to give the MAS 20,020faction,. Now this will cost theSmuggler 21,476 faction, now since he is getting a bonus as well, faction now is only costing him 72.3 CPP, or 1,561,306 credits, and costing you MAS only 85.3 CPP....for a savings of 326.694 credits per round of schematics.

Now I know for some this isn't much, but for many AS's out ther trying to get things up and running this is a huge discount. I noticed that is costs me roughly 160k credits worth of faction per suit, so this is basicly giving me 2 free suits for my money. All in all your looking at about a 17% discount on your faction schematics... so go visit your neighborhood Entertainer for those inspiration buffs.
