Ok. I have 7 harvesters on a 62% ore reserve, and 2 harvesters on a 78% stell reserve (plus a wind generator). This isn't cutting it, I'm progressing too slowly (making small houses).


I was thinking of putting all my harvesters on the steel reserve, then make bookcases on practice mode all day. That probably won't cut it either. Generator turbines require a bunch of crap like copper, aluminum and gas, medium harvesters (which I can make) are a bitch to place, and I have basically no money, I can't afford their matinence.


Can someone explain how I could reach master architect in a week or so? I'm on Naboo, on Starsider. I'm really getting sick of this **edit**, I hope you can help. Thanks in advance.

If you want to master in a week then good f'ing luck. Find 100 people to run harvesters for you and just sit infront of the crafting station 24/7 making crafting stations and you might hit it in a week.


I have had novice architect since day 6 of the game. I am 1 skill away from being halfway.


But if you want to advance only collecting one resource just collect any metal and make crafting stations. They sell pretty well at 2k apiece on the bazaar, so you are making money and they are 900xp a pop.

JUst like every other profession you get 2 XP for every resource you use.


Enjoy this weeks grinding sesson because if you are looking for satisfaction in becoming a Master Architect you will be disappointed. I know I am.

You may as well learn how to place mediums. If you are gonna be an architect you will need to use those and heavys anyway. Just look at the material requirements for a large house. It would take you 3-4 days to get that using personals.


Not to be mean or anything but it sounds to me like you chose the wrong profession.

I need money for this. It's obvious I'm completely out of it as far as prices go, I was charging 6k for a small house and I sold 2 medium harvesters + 5 houses for 20k.

20k? lol.. I charge that for one med harvester.. ouch.. If you arent gettinga t least 3 cr per resource used, you are gonna be broke long before master..


I hit master 18 days after novice.. at about an average of 5 hours play per day, and made money doing it.. It was a helluva scrape in the beginning, but I managed solo, however I did have about 8 lots extra from various friends..


Just figure the best time you can get is dependant on the resources you can collect.. 2 xp per resource.. if anything, just make blocks and turn them into walls.. save them.. you will need them eventually.. turbines are nice.. almost 3k xp there.. but lotsa oddball stuff to make one.. all it takes is patience..

Agreed that you will have to use medium harvesters. And invest in a solar generator. My medium on a 64% spot pulls in about 2500 units a day. If you have one small house (for storage), one solar gen, and 7 mediums that's pulling in 17.5k resources a day. Personals should really only be used for small quanitities of rare resources to stockpile or a side business selling raw resources on the bazaar.

Medium harvesters require twice the matinence of small ones. I am completely broke. Are you sure that crafting stations sell for 2k on the bazaar? I hope so...

I believe white is possible, it's on the color pallete (not tested by me yet though). Mean is very possible


As for small... I think it would grow to the size of a regular Rancor anyway with a minimum level of 35 being attainable.


2 out of 3 isn't bad
