Armorsmith Archive

Ya, Ive seen some jokers on my server putting out 7000K/4000E suits selling them 100k below my 7000K/5000E unlayered suits. I have higher condition and energy but some people just want as cheap as possible... damned fools.

I did the fallowing with battle and assualt armor.

I took 1k of kinetic layers and made 1k mon-kin-segments. Took another 1k of kinetic layers and made 500 di-Kin-segments. Combined the two seg to make 500 cores. Then made 40 suits of Black Padded and 40 of Comp.

In both cases i broke the unlayered cap for Kinetic. 6180 for my Padded and 7230 for my Comp. The customer base (on radient) was getting used to the unlayered caps. So I have gotten some good feed back on the armor.

Then I spam in c-net dont pay x# of credits for unlayered armor. Look at my Kinetic armor first. lol.

Monday was my frist 2 million credits sales day. yay!

Wow. You´re not exactly cheating them outright, you´re just taking advantage of the fact that your customers clearly have no idea what to look for.

You make me proud to be an armorsmith.

/sarcasm off.

No-way! This is good armor. Good hunting armor made at a low cost. Caped unlayered was going for 400k a suit here on radient. I am selling this at 200k a suit.

I predict mono and di kinetic layerd battle armor will become a mainstay. Have you looked at all the kinetic wepons now.

Kinetic layers and shield generators! Thats my motto.

I have the resoces to make capped unlayered recon. But i wont. I will make it partialy layered. Customer will know what he needs to do when using it. Just like pre-CURB ubese.

can anyone point me in the direction of the list of cpas, both layered and unlayered?

Sounds like a good way to get rid of crap resources to me.

I think I'll play around with that a bit.

Sorry about that outburst of foul temper earlier.. Obviously I should have kept my mouthshut since I didn´t really know anything about the situation. Selling that very decent armor at 200k, you´re not exactly exploiting anyone Ruebacca. Apologies are in order here.

I have to agree with that, I'm new to AS but I already don't see any reason to push out tons of energy capped gear. Seems like a fad with no basis to me. Knowing this my ranged toons have kinetic guns on the ready, and all the jedi I know which get hunted are quick to drag these energy capped folk through wild agressive spawns. With the diminishing returns I would much rather keep kinetic up as much as possible, pack a psg and lunch and ya good to go. I really want to see elemental damage start working tho, that will put a big switch in how people gear out and choose their weapons and armor.
