Those are almost the exact same materials as the Droid Customization Kit and I hope this changes. The droid Storage Compartment is available at Novice Droid Engineer. And as a Master Artisan that would suck.

Kind of like the droid engineers who can't make anything without master artisan components. It looks like they wanted the door to swing both ways. Forced interdependency I guess.

Well, since I am master DE and master artisan, it won't hurt me... but then I am master artisan because of the forced interdependency issues.

If you examine the freshly-painted X34 in my screenshot next to the regular (Live)red ones, you will notice that the white parts of the Live X34's remain the same battered white on the customized ones...hehe wouldn't that be a cool function of the 'fading' on the paint jobs? They just flake away and get really nasty looking over time? Ah well can't ask for too much I guess.

Interdependency is good. And why should I mind buying parts from aDE? They don't mind buying parts from me.

Uh, sorry, but no, hell no. Just what DE needs. One more components from MA. If anything, take out the Droid Storage Compartment from the schematic.

These required ingredients are a little excessive for a Paint kit. Is there any chance that schematic will get changed prior to the Customization Kits going live in the upcoming patch?

As someone said in another thread, the ingredients should be 1) Metal - Container, 2) Polymer - Paint. I can even see the need for the control unit since the tool can be used by all players, but the rest is a bit excessive.

I don't mind collaboration among the different crafting trades buta general trade shouldn't have to rely on an elite trade to get subcomponents (it should be the other way around where the general crafter can assist the elite crafter by making subcomponents that they can use).

Is it possible that Master Artisans will also get the schematic for the Droid Storage Compartment? We already have schematics for the Control Unit (and other droid related items). Why have the ability to craft one subcomponent but have to rely on an elite trade for the other?

Perhaps I wasn't clear. I don't think that one profession should HAVE to rely on another. I wasn't aware that DE's didn't also get the Droidcomponent schematics that MA have.

I feel that the DE should only have to go to a MA to get the sub components if they want to, in order to save themselves time. But it shouldn't be mandatory.

i agree the Droid storage compartment should be left out of the Customization kit. After scrutinizing the Control unit, I feel that is also too complex for a painting tool.

Sheesh Devs, the paint has more componets than the vehicle it's going on and it will probably cost as much to make.
