Cisa is a Ditanium steel which is required for the construction of our Protocol Droids. Depending on if your planning on making any you can stockpile it for personal use or resell at a later point or use it to grind. From it's current listing on SWGCraft.comit's stats aren't spectacularly stellarso I'd grind with it, but keep a small stock in case it doesn't respawn for some time to come.


If you do plan on selling it your target market should be Armor and Weaponsmiths. Armorsmiths use it for Adv. Armorweave Segements. Weaponsmiths use it forVibro Axes, Vibro Lances, Long Vibro Axes, Elite Carbines and T21 Rifles.

Then it sounds as though you are doing it the way most of us did. Sample and sell untill you can make personal harvesters. Then sell from that untill you can afford larger ones. You might consider tryingto trade some resources to a crafter already able to make good personal harvesters. The BER (Basic Extraction Rate) is important now. You might also advertise for a mentor on your galaxy forum. He could help you with crafter and DE issues as well as train you, thereby saving you some credits.


Good Luck

dont grind on it, because with droids quality of the metals DOESNT MATTER. SAVE IT for sure.

This is changing.


High materials and experimentation will have an effect on the quality of a droid after the next publish. There is information on the TC boards about this....

Go to forum, galaxies, bria. Then post something like "up and comming DE (currently artisan) needs DE mentor". But I'm not suprized that DEs are far and few because it's a broken profession, and has been since launch. You may also consider a PA that has a current DE.

Couple ways, go to theBria Server forum and post a request asking for a DE mentor, maybe post on the Bria Trade forum, or run an in game search by pressing Ctrl+P, it's under one of the tabs and selecting Droid Engineer.

I would definitely keep the ditanium and not grind with it. Yes, quality WILL have an effect in the not so foreseeable future, but keep in mind that you also need ditanium for the "furniture" protocol chassis and I don´t think they need to be high quality even after the fix.
When I first got the skills to make protocol, 2 master DEs on Lowca (Adam Steel and Kereneth (spelling?), thanks guys) were so nice to sell me a few hundred units of ditanium so I could make some 3POs for my guildies. You never know, when it will be available again, so I´d never grind with special ressources we need for our schematics like Ditanium Steel, Duranium Steel, etc. (not to mention the "named ressources" necessary for lvl6 modules) unless you have literally tons of those.
