I was DE a long while ago, i never made it to master but i made some good money selling droids. I would stack modules so I couldnt sell droids with lots of options but atleast i could max out the options i did include.


I stopped playing my DE alt for a while and I wanted to start playing again. Last night i worked away 3 more boxes (then the freakin game ATE 60k of my steel!!) and tonight i plan on grinding out the last 3.


I am so overwelmed by all the new components, I have no idea what they go in, on top of that I see these listings of new resources needed for patch 7. It seems like our proffesion has gotten VERY complex.. is anyone else overwelmed?? I dont see how I can get all that stuff..

It's not that much more complex than weaponsmith I think- The hard part is getting all the materials. I've spent about a week running 4 factories and still have only about 2/3 of the components I want done.

Reconstruction kits allow a DE to repair droid wounds. Repair kits heal damage and are useable by anyone. The recons are DE only.

The resources are a pain thats for sure. But overwelmed not really since most the new items in our tree deals with the newrepair itemsthat we got with publish 7. At least in publish 8 we dont get a bunch of new parts just to build the new modules. Just more named resources that have not spawned on servers in weeks if not months.


Still my major gripe is with all the named resources. It was weeks before I couldbuild protocall droids because of the named steel thatis needed which did not spawn in almost a month on my server. Then I found some on another DEs vender for 20 cred a Unit yes 20,000 creds for 1000 units was not easy to swallow, so that was reflectedinmy price to which my buyersdid notlike but oh well.


Can not wait till Tuesday (tomorrow).

I'm still waiting on Lidium Extrusive Ore. I don't think it's ever even spawned on Valcyn. At least not in last 2-3 months.

I wouldn't say overwhelmed but it is slightly more complex now. We are finally going to have some demand.


Repair kits give us some items to keep selling and selling...
The new modules give us an item that almost all professions want and or need...
And the droid bombs give us a cool new way to keep us in business...


I have almost all the resources except for the Vertex Crystalline Gemstone =( Please pop tonight!!! Currently have 4 heavies on Tolium Reactive Gas (boom!!).

Reconstruction kits are for your use only, so you unless you go out and battle alot, don't worry about them.


Repair kits are for everyone else, but they hardly sell. I can't give these things away. Is anyone else having a problem selling these?


They wasted tooooooo much time on these 2 things, we didn't need 4 of each kind. 1 of each type would have been sufficient. They should have spent there programming powerelse where (instead on these useless repairs kits), like on some bugs that have been around since Launch.


The daunting thing of course isall the Name Resources. We as DE's got used to a very short list (maybe 3 - 5) of named resources that we needed before Publish 7 and 8. I think that list is closeto15 now.But with most modules you don't need much of each, so even finda stack of 100k to buy should keep you stocked for a while.
