Sorry to hijack this thread but does anybody on Chilastra sell really good detonation droids? Just am finishing by BH grind and am starting to stock up on such items.

Best place to start looking would be

Rasal .. I know ... DEing is more of a hobby than a money maker for me. My money comes from resources and ship components.
I like to be known as a crafter of high end stuff, but I would not want to have a completely stocked vendor all the time. You do a great job in the South Coronet Business district, as does Cameo. It's not something I want to do. Especially crafting droids in large crate factory runs ... PITB
I am happy crafting my 4500 HAM R-series droids, my 58 bombs and my 114 harvesters .... and if my vendor is empty of those, so be it. I will make more later, when I have time and feel like it. I charge a moderate amount of cash ... but its like my work in architecture ... bulk sellers like you and special order sellers like my are happily coexisting ...
have fun

Point well taken. Just making sure!
On a side note, I think Cameo is on a hiatus. All his vendors are empty.

I sell Adv R3 detonator (53 det power) at 40-50K... sometimes 25k for special sales
Look for Eolean vendors on Corellia and Talus

it takes 16 factory runs, and 5 lvls of factory runs to make these bad boys,, its a ton of work and if you dont have a lot of factories it can take a week or even 2 to make um 75k is right about what they should be

Just do it this way...
1.) Get a friend or two who are also bhs...
2.) Each buy a crate of the 39 DP Mouse droids (costs 20k for a crate of 5 on eclipse, so like 4k/use)...
3.) Each get the jedi's mission...
4.) Each of you and your friends target him...
5.) Each instruct the droid to follow target...
6.) Each set off self destruction sequence at the same time...
7.) Odds are he's now 1 knocked out jedi you can deathblow and split reward on. Works everytime for me and my pals for the cost of 8k - 12k (2 - 3 droids used)

You know, I just don't make them...
I make the heck out of Adv MSE's though...and they sell like hotcakes! I haven't done factory runs of them yet, since my factories are busy, but I will. The extra 20 or so damage doesn't seem worth it, really, for all the crap you go throught to make an R3 Boomer....

It's a ton more then 20 damage more.
The formula is 150-200 points of damage per point of explosive power. Meaning the difference between a 39 MSE and a 59 Power R3 is 3000 - 4000 in PVE. For PVP is is 750 - 1000. That is a lot.
You can incap a Jedi with a single R3, you can't do that with an MSE.
