I did one of the worst thing someonecould do...... i did /respec master AS.

Now of course i now need to come here and bug.... Which i shouldn't do and learn from my mistakes.

So here goes with the questions...

1). 4 layers go into a segment... Now what layers would be good to use for the following. Battle, Recon, and assult?

Depends on what you want, but Primus Layers are prolly the most useful. If you want extra protection in Kin or Ene, use the Kin and Ene Layers. Don't bother with the elemental layers for now.

-should i mix it up with alittle of this and alittle of that? or use one of one kind?

Never mix and match opposing layers (ex: Kin and Ene). They'll cancel each other out.

I'd stick to using the same type layers.

-and cause Cores are suppose to be in grates does that mean the layers and segments all need to be the same

aswell?

"grates"? I think you meant "crates".

Crated cores are needed to make helmets, chests and legs.

Everything else can be made by hand.

If you are making crated items, all components must be identical.

So to make 10 identical cores, you'll need 30 identical segments which then require30 x 4 identical layers (for quad layered stuff).

The layers can all be the same (120 identical)or you can mix and match up to 4 separate identical stacks of 30 layers.

Either way, you'll need a factory.

2). Bio-Linked? lol I took 10 months off from game so I have no clue what this means...does that mean take my armor to a

BE?

Bio-linking is for faction armor only and basically means "to customize for personal use".

You need faction point in order to link the armor to yourself.

Once linked, nobody else can wear/link the armor anymore.

Hence, it's customized for YOUR OWN PERSONAL USE ONLY.

It's the same as tuning a pearl/crystal where once tuned, only the Jedi that tuned it can use it.

I will have more but if someone nice enough to answer these and not make me feel more of a noob than i feel already i'll be happy... been playing since launch and now crafting is a whole new game! Ty for the patience..

Signed: really confused Master AS

Hey, we all have to start somewhere.

Should have wrote 10 x 3 identical segments. hehe

Thanks for clearing it up.

...so you can not wear factional armour unless it's bio linked? Sweet.

I can not afford to make factional armor yet, but this is moving me in that direction.

I hope this can be answered here.. I am also a returning player and all this is new to me.

I didnt want to start a new thread becasue this one seemed to be close enough. hehe.

But let me see if I understand this, i'll use the rebel assault armor as the example.

If I wanted to put on the armor, I would have to bio link it? no other way around it, correct? and in order to do that, I would need to spend faction points to bio link.

So that is the only benefit to bio linking? simply being able to actually wear it.

right?

Thanks!

(btw I too respec'ed to Master armorsmith) heh.
