I am currently leveling my bounty hunter and I like to check out different vendors and just take a look at things that my BH can use in the future. I came upon a store that had armor/clothing attachments for sale and the prices began at around 10k creditsfor like a +1 to unarmed speed attachment...to around 5 Million credits for something not that much better, but I suppose significantly better. My question is do people even use these atachments frequently to make their characters stronger... or do they exist as some kind of bonus for vets with nothing better to do than grind for money or what? I appreciate any responses, thanks in advance.

It'sa scam. Speed mods from SEAs do NOT benefit you. Stay away from them. Stick with Accuracy instead.
The Speed mod increase stat .01 point per +5. They appear a little out of place.

Thank you for your swift reply mindspat. Im glad to know this about the speed attachments, but when I mentioned the speed attachment, I was only using it as an example. I'm really wondering about all the attachments in general. They all seem to be that expensive. Is 1-5 million credits acceptable for one attachment, when armor has like 3 or 4 sockets, and it can even degradem and you will have to buy a new suit/attachments anyway? It seems that the kind of money it would take to fill up a suit with attachments, and having the suit only last for maybe a month or twoor even less, is completely unreasonable. But this is just my view, and I am still relatively new to the game, I appreciate any help you all may offer me, thanks.

if you've got the money, setting up a good, ADK'd suit is very worthwhile...that extra 50 you can get in accuracy can make the diference. as for crafting CA's, they're basically needed to compete for most professions now.

+ 50 Accuracy on your armor all ADK'd would probably be... 100+ mil? :/ Does anyone actually have something like this?

Sure! The more people you know + the more jedi you know= the more money you'll make. We havea risk vs. reward system, which means only the high level content drops anything really worth it, and only a few people can actually get to it and it's rare -- er, that's how it should be. But you've got a Jedi with AI and other Jedi supporting him, and you can farm literally hundreds of millions of credits off Dark Jedi Masters. Of course, the mission is impossible to get to unless you exploit /unstick (I don't care what you say, using /unstick for a purpose other than to unstick you if you're trapped is using it in a different way than it was intended in order to access a closed off part of the game is an EXPLOIT BY DEFINITION.)
But hey, how bad is an exploit if you can make hundreds of millions of credits off it?

Another questions guys... is it possible that Bio Engineers can make the AA's, or are all the high end AA's acquired from killing high end mobs? Also, if anyone could give me an example of the AA's you all are using, as well as where they drop from, I would greatly appreciate it, thanks.

Speed attachments have NO value and should be avoided under all costs. If yoiu loot one sell it to whomever is wiling ot pay the highest price for it. This is the best use for a SEA with a speed mod.
+5 = -.01
+10 = -.02
+15 = -.03
+20 = -.04
+25 = -.05
Is anyone able to justify these things!?!?!?
