Well, I'm not sure about the numbers but about 500-600k Steel and 300-350k Fiberplast should be enough to get you thru it. If you could do a calculation on the XP needed for me I can check it.

I think it would take about 400k steel + around 270k fiberplast.


Been a while since I've had to think about it...


It was round 1.25mil exp required to master

ok, did some calculations


Steel: 450k
Fiberplast: 210k


That should be about accurate

Ogge,

Just for clarification: That is presuming 5% chance of criticals and including the 10% bonus for experimentation practice?

Once you have advanced droid blueprints and can make the advanced frame, you need 1,113,600 more droid experience points to hit master.


An advanced droid frame gives 460 experience points,483 in practice mode, and takes 150 units of steel and 70 units of fiberplast to make.


You need to craft 2306 advanced drod frames in practice mode to get the experience needed.


This means you wil burn 345,900 units of steel, and 161,420 units of fiberplact after you hit advanced droid blueprints.

Hmm, well... I was calculating at a bit higher xp levels so it should make up for the crit fails.

Good point - this is the absolute minimum that I posted.


Probably adding around 10% or so to what I listed would give a more realistic number.

Correction: The Advanced Droid Frame Unit gives 440experience and 462 in practice mode. (150 steel + 70 fiberplast = 220 resources.)


That means you need 2410 ADFUs to Master from Blueprints II, or about 2530 if you allow for 5% critical failures on assembly.


2530 ADFUs is 379500 (call it 380k) Steel and 177100 (call it 180k) Fiberplast. That's just from Blueprints II until Master... you'll need more Steel to get from Novice to Blueprints II.

Unless something has changed, there is noXP bonus for experimentation.

My bad. I will edit the original post to reflect my actual thoughts, which was to say 'practice'.

This is not correct. If you use the schematic and do the math, or go to swgcraft.com, you will find that it is a base of 460 exp.


It is not 2 exp per resource unit used.
