Its only +1 but that means an entire extra skill point, does it not?

I'm xpochian on bloodfin, and generally interested to see what I could get for this. I'm not about ripping people off, but don't play me for a fool.

If anyone is interested, zing me over a /tell and i'd be glad to work something out.

not exactly, it takes 10 of those to give 1 extra experimentation point. just add up the mods from the chef skill tree, at the end they have +100 to food experimentation and thus have 10 points to experiment with. So each addition 10+ adds 1 more experimentation point.

Im not sure on the economy on your server, starting an auction at about 50k min and see what happens, just dont set a pre-determined buyout, let the auction determine the value. if it never starts, then the asking opening bid is too high. Every server has its own economy, good luck

there is no extra skill point with this attachment you must (i think) have + 10 to get an another experimentation point

Yep - per 10 extra "food experimentation" points from clothes and tapes, you get one extra experimentation point when actually cooking. This caps at 25 points from tapes, meaning 2 extra points (12 total) is as high as you can get.

A +1 isn't worth a whole lot on most servers, since there's a finite amount of slots to put them in (ie, you can't wear 20 +1s) - maybe 20-100k? I'd recommend sticking it on a server board in addition to here and seeing what you can get.

I'm fairly new to the SEA's and how they work, but I managed to get a +3 and a +2. I added them to my food crafters apron (+5) and got the message the sea's transferred successfully. Upon examining the apron, the stats were the same, +5 and it still had 4 slots free.

Is this a bug, or have i done something wrong?

Bug, but I just saw something today to indicate that it might have been "stealth fixed". The behavior everyone's been seeing is that if you add an SEA to a piece of clothing that already has the bonus (whether it's from a built-in bonus or from a previous skill tape), the new one doesn't stack, only overwriting the bonus if the new tape's is higher. And tapes with multiple bonuses were only giving one of them. Either the first one listed, the first skill alphabetically, or the highest; I've never gotten that straightened out.

But this thread shows someone getting lucky:

http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=csystems&message.id=20253

A multiple skill tape not only stacked with an existing bonus, but both skills showed up.

When did you add the SEA? It's possible that the chef's apron is a special case, with the old buggy behavior I'm pretty sure a socket got used up.

ouch, you probably just threw away about 5mil+ of attachments there. You can only have 1 of each tape of attachment per clothing item - so for example 1 experimentation and 1 assembly tape in your hat means you lose anymore you add unless there of higher value i believe.

I didnt realise this myself at first either but luckily i learnt this before adding anything myself. I really feel for you though because like I say thats about 5mil at least down the drain i think

there should be a more clear message about this in game if it is indeed the case

This is one of those horrible undocumented bugs that pretty much everyone finds out about the hard way. And don't bother trying to page CSRs for help, they won't fix these situations. :/
