Thread: Just picked up AS and need advice please
Like the man said.
Armorsmithing nowis pretty much the same as Tailor but you need good resources.
The better your resources, the better your armor is... Plain and simple.
Don't have to worry about how to spend your experiment points because you don't have any options to begin with.
you want a quick and easy way to make money to build your AS stock? Go Master AS Master Smuggler.... (once things get fixed) smuggler can make good money with no over head (Selling faction). PLus you'll be able to get the Faction Schematics cheapest. Faction armor is your highest markup. You can even add a slighly higer mark-up for the convience of standing right there instead of the customer having to hunt for this armor. as a smuggler you can even sell them the faction needed to Bio-link the armor.
Once you aquire some schematics, and the resouces to make the appearence, buy as many advanced cores from a large armorsmith as you can afford, Make the faction armor and sell it in packs, You can stand and spma at say the MO, take your profits and repeat this till you have a nice little nest egg... keep this going, while taking some of your extra money and putting it into resources.
After a few weeks you should have a good stash of resources to run your own armor. From there it get's easier and easier.
Again all this requires faction armor to get fixed first.
recommendations.....RUN. Now quick and easy, look at the resources neededd to maek a particular assault armor at the final stages, ignore teh layers adn segments to start. collect up the final process resources and get Krayt hunters to collect Assault armor cores. saves you a lot of time and credits to start, and fast turn around. You will need to find a tailor for Synthetic clothe and reinforced fiberplast panels. Once you sell a few sets or even pieces you can start buying resources. Also, buy a few harvesters and start harvesting resources that you will need down the line, get the stuff with the ebst stats when it spawns, it will help you immensely in teh future. Example, on starsider right now Gravitonic fiberplast is spawning, decent stats. this is used in primus layers (Best for armor), so I have 4 heavy harvester pulling from 67% spots. I have gotten 400k so far. hope to be around a million by the end of the spawn. there may be better out there, but I have good stuff stocked up and I cna sell it later if I get better or crank large numbers of layers now for all my armor types.
And with Krayt assault cores, your armor can be from 4500-6800( best I have gotten yet from them), and it sells fast. Doing this you have minimal resources involved liek maybe 5 or 6 total, the assault core, reinforced fiber, and synthetic cloth and thast it.
