Where do these come from??



Who said the world had to make sense?

No skill points left and so much to do.

My question is, are there any bio engineer skill tapes? I personally have never come across one, and have never seen one for sale. Are there, and if so, which stats?

From my understanding there are no SEAs for the BE class. Same for the Politician class...but of course they are new.

Good question...and maybe a good time for a re-post of a warning...as far as I know there aren't any good skill enhancers out there specifically for our weapons (beyond grenadeas and pistol skills)...There are plenty of defense skill enhancers out there we can benefit from.


This is where the warning comes in...Many of us see attachments that say Heavy Weapon Accuracy or Heavy Weapon Speed...these are actually a throw back to BETA...and as far as I know they still drop...back in BETA our heavy weapons all drew from the same skill set, Heavy Weapon Accuracy and Heavy Weapon Speed...after BETA those skill sets were broken down into seperate skills (Rocket Launcher Accuracy, etc.) instead of those general catagories...if you equip these enhancers they will show you have +1 or +5 or whatever of that Heavy Weapon Accuracy or Spd, but in reality, they WILL NOT impact your Commando skills with your weapons at all...


I have some of those enhancers myself...I'm just hanging on to them hoping the dev's fix these some day...or change them like they have changed other game items so that they do work...but for now, they are helpful to us unfortunately...trust me, I learned the hard way...that's why I know know all this..

Bought a +4 heavy weapons speed for my novice commando buddy, Even though i'm sure i could have used it. So they do exist, Just VERY rare as far as i know.

Regarding the +4 Heavy Weapon Speed attachment...please read my post above in this tread...they exist, but they don't work...it's a bug...in fact they are still being dropped, but have no effect on any of our skills unfortunately...

Where do you get skill tapes from? Is it from creature drops? If it is wht type of creature or mob drops them if any? What is the best skill tape you have found relating to DE?

Supposedly, any Humanoid NPC might drop skill-enhancements (armor and cloth-attachments). For Droids specifically, it's random...


I've come by several various +1's and +2's.. but something important to remember - there seems to be a bug that prevents +'s from stacking on the same piece of clothing! I had put 2 +2 Droid Experimentation on a shirt, which came out only +2 Droid Experimentation. Remember, you can many different pieces of clothing which over-lap (including backpacks) each of which can contain 4 attachments (I believe).. Altogether I have +14 droid experimentation, and +'s to a few others like Droid Speed (however we have NO idea what this is yet I don't think).

BE's can make some of them - don't think they can make the DE ones, though.
