Hey guys!

Does it really matter to experiment on something that doesn't show any stats in the attribute box any? for example Weapons upgrade kits and many of the master artisan electronic components. I don't so why it would if there is nothing to track. Seems like all we are doing is watching the pretty bar get bigger (or smaller).

Thanks for any help guys!

I there is no measureable stat, then experiementation has no benefit.

However, in the past, items that did have a stat and that attribute wasnt originally viewable and was added after the fact (crafting stations for one) it made a diff.

I experiment on everything, no matter what. Because if at some point in the future, the stats on that item asre viewable, I want to make sure any Stinky item is a quality product.

The master artisan electronic components must be high quality if you are building a crafting station. However, in most cases, you are correct, quality means diddly.

It does matter... if only slightly. My BH droids are 7% better Effectiveness rating if I put in highly experimented MA parts in them, than if I just put in un-experimented ones.

The question is does this help the BH player? I dunno...

I feel like a did earlier. Some says yes someone says no. I would vote for no from experience but I will play a bit more. Man, wouldn't it be neat if a Dev or CSR actually could answer these small questions .

How hard can it be!

Still frustrated!

Shussssssssh ! You dont want to wake the wrong CSR you could get your name changed.

I just love making parts for my driods, expr with a few points amazing success, next attempt failure. New schematic same part, same resources- failure, good success.

If you ask a slicer, he will probably tell you the quality matters. The only reason I know this, is that I sold a crate to a Master Smuggler that was unsure on how "good" my weapon upgrade kits would be, and he said, if he had success with them, he would continue buying. I made it with 920+ conductive copper and 900+ decay resistant (which used to be a contributing factor to it, but apparently isn't anymore), and he says he will continue to buy from me now "instead." So I think it makes a difference, whether or not you can see it.
