Ok so I've collected lots of artisan tapes and now want to use em.
I understand that putting 2 tapes of the same type onto a peice of clothing is a bad move as only the higest tape applies.
I am puzzled over what clothing items I should apply my tapes to, the tapes I have range from +1 to +7 on artisan experimentation; I want to spread these tapes over several clothing items.
What clothing items should I be wearing and how many unique slots can I have in total?
Hope this makes sense

sure it makes sense... here is the thing it depends on your race and what you can wear, and what your current Artisan Experimentation is at ... for once you reach +120 overall Artisan experimentation you get your +12 pts in the experimentation part of Artisan crafting... as a Human i have a racial bonus of +15 Artisan Experimentation... so i just put three +1 tapes and one +2 tape in different articles of clothing... again as a Human I can wear, Bandolier, Hat, Belt, Duster, shirt, pants, gloves, and shoes... so 8 total items of clothing ...and like you said i could put one + Artisan Experimentation tape in each artilce if i so desired... but with my racial bonus its not really needed for me to do so....also right now there is a bug in game which allows the effects of 0 condition clothing to still work on +'s to skills from skill enhanced clothing... so if you ever go into battle i would stick those clothes in a droid storage unit or a bank or your house... so if you die they do not decay... cause eventually the bug will be fixxed and all the 0 condition clothing will be no longer useful ....hope this helps

Thanks, that makes things a little clearer, I am a Zabrak so I don't get the experimentation bonus which is a shame.
I am trying to drop Master Artisan but keep the engineering and business skill trees because I want to keep the full Weapon Powerups compliment and the full array of available vendors.
As I see it I will drop from 100 Artisan Exp / 100 Artisan Assembly to 60 Exp / 60 Assembly. Therefore I need +40 of both. from what you say if I can have 8 unique clothing items my attachments must _average_at least +5.
Is this correct?

Attachments will only work up to +25 at best. You can't get +40, it'll show +40, but you'll only get the benefit of +25.
