I figured I would post what information I have about weapon powerups as they have been my bread and butter since week 3 of the game.

First of all, credit where credit is due. The ranged and melee list I have included is taken from Blood632's post in the following thread: http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=artisan&message.id=34625

The additional information (grenades and mines) is from the Allakhazam.com's Advanced Powerup Guide of Making, Expermenting and Using by Koaree Eawa at the following link:

All the information is correct to my knowledge

And now, on with the show:

Powerup stats(all types) are randomly generated. The basic powerup, when first assembled, contains a PRIMARY stat (if you look at the list below, it is the first set of names such as Ported, Smoothed, Taper-Bored, etc). By experimenting, additional stats can be added (these are the second set of names such as of Alignment, of Concentration, of Dampening etc.)

Let's look a ranged barrel powerup for example (although the crafting process of all the powerup types is the same)

I select a barrel powerup from my weapon, droid, generic crafting tool while standing next to my weapon, droid, generic crafting station. Thebarrel is assembled and randomly assigned a name and corresponding stat modifier (if you get less than a "great" assembly at this point, toss it). In this case I have a made a PORTED BARREL (which give
