im a new master and for the past 2 weeks ive been scouring the server for decent materials so i can make some kinetic armour haivng finally got enough resources to make a suit last night.
ive entered all the resources into the as little helper and im a little disappointed as the best im going to get out is:
72% kinetic
65% electrical
58% Base.
this of course pre slice and on the condition that my experimenting goes well. does it look like a fair effort for my first suit?
Id be grateful for any comments

I have seen much worse first attempts
that is nothing to be ashamed of, I think my fisr suits were worst
you should play with it to get the kinetic to 80%, you can do this by putting an extra point into the special resists on the layers. Customers want that 80% even if it is heavy

Another question what is the average Total Ham cost for a suit, im just looking for a rough area to aim for.
ive just changed a few experiement points and got a few more % out of the kinetic.
Thanks for your help

HAM can vary a ton and expect it to be heavy for a while
HAm is why people buy the extra tapes. As a starting AS you can max at least one line. So, your armor can have the same specials, or same HAM, or same base as any armorsmith depending on resources.
If you max base, your HAM will be high, if you max HAM your base/specials wont be as high etc.
a 12 point smith really gets 6 extra experimentation points, not 2. He gets 2 points to put into layers, 2 points to put into segments and 2 points to put into final combine. That is why a 12 pointer can have high resists, base and decent HAM.
you might be better off making layered chests/helm/pants and combining them with unlayered arms/boots/gloves to make your new suits more wearable with such high HAM. Your first set might have HAM over 1000 each pool, but a skilled smith with more xp points could get to 600/600/600 with same resources.

Wow, so you must have just missed the giant AS shift about 2 weeks ago on corbantis where we had
990+ OQ Solid Petro
950+ OQ+SR Intrusive Ore
900+ OQ Vertex Crystalline
then we had the best Beyrllius copper ever for our server just despawn yesterday, and some excellent wooly from Endor is still dropping, I believe.
If you post on the trade boards you should be able to acquire this stuff since it was recently in shift.

on tempest it's been almost 2 weeks since we've had any good resources that where worth the effort of me putting mining equipment on. *sigh* gonna run outo f beryllius copper after my next run and am almost out of wooly too. Been checking every day hoping for something to spawn.

Well i was really refereing to the to the lack of decent supplies of kirium steel and colat iron.
I made some comp gloves last night and got 77% Kinetic and 56% Base so i need some slightly better materials to get it up to 80%

I've been waiting for a couple of weeks for some decent Kiirium steel to spawn on sunrunner also. I hate waiting on resources!

There was some semi decent colat a month or so back... over 1600 OQ and SR combined.. only managed to get 50k
I too am on corbantis and am having the same trouble. Except im hitting 79%and 78% kinetic and 58%/59% base. SO frustrating.
