currently bidding on a +25 droid complexity tape (100% uselessbut I want it anyways).
Oh man, when/if the DEVs fix complexity tapes again, that will be an uberlicious item to have. You would be able to craft every single droid, component, and module with out the use of a crafting station.
Info about crafting skill tapes:
there are extremely rare, and usually go for hundreds of thousands, if not millions of credits.
you have to have at least a +10 experimentation skill tape (or combo that adds up to 10) in order to get one extra point in experimentation. The most you can get is +25, so you will only be able to get a maximum of two extra experimentation points.
i have never seen a single tape thats 10 or greater, thus you will need multiple tapes.
I'd suggest trying to look at the stuff that drops Holocrons (I.E Dark TRoopers, FS NPCs).
A friend of mine got me a +13 MEd Experiment SEA from a DT. So..maybe try them.
I am also searching for Tailor information about Skill tapes.

Well to answer a few common questions :
- they are not made by tailors, they drop off random NPCs
- you need to drag them to a piece of clothing with sockets to use it
- they are currently bugged, in the sense that in case of several modifiers only the highest one will appear on the clothes you attach it too
- stacking in one piece of clothing is bugged (if you put some injury treatment tape in a clothes that already has that attribute it will be eaten and the piece of clothing will not change)
- on different clothes skill modifiers add up to 25 (the display might show more but it's a bug)
- you can have a maximum of 6 modifiers I believe (i think it was mentionned in one of the last patches, I might be wrong)
If you don't have the base skill as a result of not having that profession, say TKA, and don't possess the natural Defense vs. Stun modifier, does a skill tape with say +6 Defense vs. Stun do anything for you? It shows up like: Defense Vs. Stun +0/+6
Am I truly plussed up to 6 or only if you already have the base modifier?
Thanks
