Artisan Archive

I can't seem to find an answer any where on this subject.

Once Vehicles are released, will there be a new profession that builds/repairs vehicles? Where will vehicles initially be sold? How much will they cost?

I'm just looking for as much information as possible on this. The article with Haden Blackman really wasn't that informative. Building Vehicles is something I would like to gear my character towards. I think it would come in handy once the Space Expansion is released sometime next year. I would really like a developer to answer this, but I know they can't answer all of the posts.

Thanks!

I expect people to gouge buyers in the beginning, sort of like what I saw with mounts. What I'm hoping for is for the speeders to have some color customization. Hopefully not "chameleonization" like in some of the droids.

u can get eng 4 in 6 hours (max time) it means u can make it..i dont think its expencive and u can reapir in special building ( i think it will be expencive)

I'm a Master Artisan, so getting up to the point where I can build vehicles won't be a problem. I would really just like more info. We can all speculate, but I'd just like more concrete info.

I can't say that the manuals or the Holocron have been that helpful with any profession. I'm also a Novice Creature Handler, the information for that profession hasn't been very good either, but luckily have friends in the game who are very knowledgeable about the profession.

If you are now a Master Artisan you have all the skills you need to build vehicles when they go live. All that's needed is Engineering IV which is part of the Artisan skill tree.

From what I understand, it will take 1250 resources total (ferrous& non-ferrous metals) to make Swoop Bikes& Speeder Bikes, and 1700 resources total (ferrous& non-ferrous metals) to make the Land Speeder. If that's the case, I plan on pricing the Bikes at 7,500cr. & the Land Speeder at 10,200cr. I believe that will cover theresource costs, factory costsand a slight profit. Anyone who prices their vehicles much higher than this will, in my opinion, price themselves out of the market.

I bid you peace and prosperity,

Does anyone know if there is going to be a cap on how many vehicles? Say I want a speeder bike and a swoop bike, can I have both, or can each player have one vehicle?

My question is will there be storage compartments in Vehicles?

Where are you guys finding the information on resources for the vehicles?

Go to the update page for the test center, there is a ton of information there about the vehicles. There is also pics and info in the online manual.

Thank You Sir!

They will have new vehicles later on. The speederbike will be the fastest, easiest to get destroyed, and most expensive to repair. Once a vehicle loses all its life then it is gone for good I believe you can not bring it out or repair it once it is dead. So repairing is a need and your choice in a car must be wise. If your a fighter and you travel places like dath... you better be rich if you plan on taking a speederbike because you will need it repaired or buy a new one probably everytime. Landspeeder has the most health and is a bit slower but good for combat classes. Swoop is just inbetween on everything. All vehicles drive fast and faster then the fastest mount galloping.

I LOVE vehicles When i first got one I just cruised around everywhere for an hour or so with no destination.
