Thread: Post-CU Armoursmith grinding question
Is there anything that would give me more xp? I don't mind having to make subcomponents, just don't know which suit would be best to grind. I tried looking for info on this, but all I could find was obsolete pre-CU information.
Please help me with this, these Ubese Shirts are driving me mad.

Hi, I'm currently grinding Armoursmith. I've made it to 421x by making first AUK's and then Ubese Shirts. I am getting bored of this.

If you don't mind using your Respec if you still have it, and if you have 600k ore, and 300k gemstone, along with I believe some 20k? odd metal (to help make the walls) why not grind Architect and Respec over to Armorsmith.
Took me an hour to grind from Novice to Master by making walls to Construction I, and then Gungan Statue thingies all the way to master. It literally took me 53 minutes using 7 crafting tools.
In some regard they should make it so that you only have to "donate" x number fo resources to the trainer and then you get Master <crafting class>. No one learns anything about the class they are grinding by making x number of Ubese shirts for armorsmith, or the 170 some Gungan heads I made for Architect. All we get is carpal tunnel syndrome. I think it would just be easier if I could walk up to the Architect trainer for instance, hand him the 600k ore, 300k gemstone, and some metal and then have him wave the magic wand over my head to make me a Master Architect.
As for your idea of just giving the resources to the trainer to become master, I think it's a bad idea. The grind to become a crafter is part of the whole experience, it's like a trial by fire. I think all crafters respect each other, even a new Master crafter, because we all know the hard work it took to get there. I don't mind other people doing respec to get to somewhere faster, I did that my self during the CU respec period. It's just that I think it would be too easy to become any crafting profession if you could just donate resources to a trainer. That would ruin the game to some extent in my opinion.
I would have to agree with the original poster. The grind is like the warning period exspecially with all the factory bugs we have had making all my suits by hand is much worse than the grind to master IMHO.
Ubese Shirts is the most economical way to master AS even after the CU. I mastered Post-CU with shirts. It is boring but it is also cheap. If you have tons and tons of money to burn you might want to grind out chestplates but beware you will have to make sequential runs of segments and cores then buy synth and RFP from a tailor.
So grinding on a dime stick with ubese shirts, have infinite amount of funds do chestplates as it is a little faster.
