Anyone on Chimaera?

I will be looking for a good quality Landspeeder for a reasonable price.

Send a tell to Rubix Cube.

I hope you guys clean up, it's about time you got a break.

What I've read in the artisan forums says that all vechicles are going to be Master Artisan only.

Jayces says: "JustG has a thread on TC regarding known bugs. I think either the third or fourth page lists an entry that sais move vehicle Schematics to Master Artisan."

the link to JustG's TC thread is:

This game is the best game I have ever play, so my hat goes off to SOE, but trust me, there is nothng wrong with my atitude, and if you were a DE you would see that.

It wasn't JustG that released the info on Vehicles moving to Master Artisan, it was Thunderheart in the thread "Inquiring Minds Want To Know" which can be viewed here:

Yup, as expected, they've been moved. The only thing that hasn't happened yet, which I still expect to see happen, is for the schematic to be changed so that it is more complicated. I really hope that they add some sub-components of some sort... the current schematics are quite boring. At the very least, Vehicles should require some of the other Master Artisan components to make - energy distributors, power converters, electronics modules, etc.

Making Master Artisan the skill level for vehicles is one of the best ideas I've heard. Atleast we crafters have been given something that is not easy to get by a few hours of simple power crafting.

Agreed. Even the lowly MSE droid requires several components, not to mention the seekers or Arakyd probe droids. To have a speeder that is more complex, but with nothing but metal resources seems lame. Anyway, the Dev's probably want to put them on live so as to keep players interested, not to just enhance one profession.

Vehicles are actually less complicated than a Seeker or Probe droid.

A seeker has to fly (like a vehicle) but also has to run an automated search pattern, scan for a target, and relay the information to the bounty hunter, preferably without being seen.

Probe droids are even worse, having to fly to completely different planets.
