Artisan Archive

Hi, Yapazari here. Figured I'd post some things for other newbies like myself, something that had me wondering until I figured it out. May save you a little time, or just direct you to the right place to look for your own benefit. The thread will deal with the types of mineral-stats most effective for early crafting. Here is my list so far:

Survey Tools:

Solar: Conductivity

Chemical: Conductivity

Flora: Conductivity

Gas: Conductivity

Mineral: Conductivity

Water: Conductivity

Wind: Conductivity

(So to make better survey tools go for conductivity. Though Im not really sure what the better tools do, they all seem to work more or less the same unless Im missing something. But better safe then sorry.)

Crafting Tools:

Generic: Conductivity

Food and Clothing: Conductivity

Weapons/Droid/Generic: Conductivity

Structure and Furniture: Conductivity

Clothing and Armor: Conductivity

(So for better crafting tools go for conductivity. I also try to just go for overall quality when in doubt or in lack of conductive minerals. Most people don't read this little blurb when making them and go JUST for high-quality. I don't have enough experience to know if this is bad or not, butI doubt it would say conductivity unless it was to make them better.)

Weapons:

CDEF Pistol: 50% Quality, 50% Conductivity

CDEF Rifle: 50% Quality, 50% Conductivity

CDEF Carbine: 50% Quality, 50% Conductivity

Wood Staff: Shock Resistance

Reinforced Staff: Shock Resistance

Survival Knife: Shock Resistance

Dagger: Shock Resistance

Heavy Axe: Shock Resistance

(Melee weapons should be shock-resistant, pistols need a mix of conductivity and quality.)

Miscellaneous:

Droid Battery: Conductivity

Weapon Powerups: Quality

(You get it.)

Installations:

Personal Mineral Extractor:(Extraction Rate) 25% Heat Resistance, 25% Shock Resistance, 50% Unit Toughness

Personal Wind Generator: (Extraction Rate) 25% Heat Resistance, 25% Shock Resistance, 50% Unit Toughness

(This gets a bit trickier. But with the large variety of minerals nesscessary to make each of these, you have a better chance of choosing what and which types will be going in. Like it takes four or five different things depending on what you have, giving you the opprotunity to make it better.)

That's all I have for now.

Hope that helps.

actually, i'd like to see the rest. the crafting biz is a bear for new players.

I actively avoided crafting because I didn't want to learn all the details was overwhelmed by the details.

Starting players try to make stuff, but then it turns out like bantha poodoo and they come here to find out how to make it better.

PS: i'm a master artisan who really doesn't make anything. Except a speeder now and then and that's just for convenience.
