Thread: About all those named resources ....
Actually, majority of the rare resources are used in the Advanced Components for the kits and the Kit Cs and Ds.
I looked through the crafting system again and though the requirements may have doubled the current rare resources that we need, none of the resources are key to the advancement of our profession. The sub-component requirements for the Repair and Reconstruction kits are on par with BE and even Doctor crafted goods. The large majority of people will be completely satisfied with the use of B and C kits. A decent B kit(70-80%) will heal 1000+ HAM damage. It would appear that Kit Cs and Ds will play a role in Level 10+ droids later on down the line.
I'll see if I can post screen shots off all the Advanced Components, Kits, and any other Crafted items.

These are all needed (I believe, not quite there yet myself) for the advanced components for the repair/reconstruction kits, and probably a few for the level C or D repair/reconstruction kits. I'm not really getting worked up over it since a level B from a novice comes out to about 233 points per bar, figure a level C with regular components and good resources will probably be all you need. If its not, just mix and match advanced/regular parts till you find what works best for you given the resources you've got.

Thanks. I was afraid I missed something on your image page. Isn't astim higher than a Ba bit overkill for a probot's HAM ?? I'm not complaining, it just sounds odd to make a super stim to heal 800 HAM. Is the pause really longbefore you can heal again ?
So, in short, the huge list of horribly hard to get additional resources is actually nothing more than a view of future requirements? Then good.
Please instead post the actual requirements for (whatever level you thing right) so that we have a chance to get them ahead of time. Nobody is gonna love the DEthat cant supply the basic Stim/Heal.. and as has been said the rest is likely a set-up for the future .
Scare over? or not?
Ackis, he posted em already,

Cubrian steel, orveth reactive gas, malab silicastic, keschel extr, agrinium/Titanium Al and Vendusii Gems all spawn about every second week (at least on Bria). Phokolite Extr OTOH is an extremely rare spawn - even rarer than Lidium extrusive. There's been one Pokolite, and two lidium extr spawns in the entire life if Bria....

Oh Great! Phokolite just spawned on Gorath a couple weeks ago. Neither myself or any of my buddy crafters ever saw a use for it so I passed it by, even though I had read it was a rare. I could be 6 months before I see it again. Guess I best get ready to shell out some credits for it.

Its all widly dependent on server, I know I've seen phokolite on tarq at least a couple times (never paid much attention to it, though I do remember trading some of that to an architect for some lidium one time...)

true, but the mere fact that there named is what makes them hard isn't it? Even a lot of what we consider rare now isn't necessarily. It only seems rare because it may not be available when we needed it. There've probably been windows of time on some servers where cubrian was completely unavailable but nobody noticed because nobody needs it. on Kauri, the opposite has happenned, Duralloy Steel has been spawning frequently on just about every single planet for as long as I've been playing this game. It is bizarely one of the easiest types of steel to find. Nonetheless it is considered "rare".
