I want to make a quality product but im really feeling the credits disapearing trying to grind. Right now I have 5 med harvestors sitting on a 50 percent steel site. 1 med, 1 regular chem harvestor going at 85 percent fiberplast, and a factory. I've been buying steel like crazy at 3 credits per unit. I need to put a truely good, and useful droid up for sale. I want the top end though, so if I have to go 4,4,0,4 I will before selling. Right now I'm at 1,2,0,2.

toss a couple of MSE up on your planets most populated town's bazzar with either med modules or data modules (for the creature handlers) and hope they sell, i put up 12 a week in theed and usually sell half by the end of the week. Just my suggestion for something quick and easy. But asto'mechs usually are more popular.

I am in the same situation as you. 1/2/0/3 is where I am on the skill tree. I would get one more level in blueprints. I've found I can sell r4's and other droids with food/chem crafting stations and medical modules fairly often. Along with the occasional probot. I usually keep a few deeds of probots in my inventory and then when I am in town I run around with my probot out which always gets someone asking how they can get one. I've found that if they balk about the price you can usually sell them a cheaper droid. I also try to spend some time with them showing them how to use it and I always include a few batteries. I've been doing this for about a week now and I am already starting to get the word of mouth sales.

I sold a LOT of R5 units with level 1 medical module on the bazaar for 2750 credits. What I did was travel the galaxy and drop a few on the bazaar on the planets I went to. OF course, some days were better than others, and you'll sell more 2k droids on Rori than you will in Theed.

get blueprints lvl3 at 1,2,0,3 I was making pretty good profit selling probots with armor lvl 3 and adv r4 with 2 med lvl2 and a chem crafting.. from there get armor lvl4 and the clothing/armor crafting module..

I'm at 1,3,0,3 from here i pan to goto 3,3,0,3 then get master blueprints, then the structor crafting module then work up the refinement master that then finish off armor 5

so:

1,3,0,3
3,3,0,3
3,3,0,4 here i do my galactic tours
4,3,0,4 or maybe here
4,3,0,4
4,3,4,4
4,4,4,4 MAster (already have the Aprentinece points)

course this might change if they ever fix experimentation and customizations.. and what they do to the tree for real combat droids.

Nah


Everyone and his dog have crafting stations by now. I am planning ahead for the real combat droids. Go 1 4 0 4. People in my PA want real combat droids as not all of them want to take up creature handler.



Medical line is worthless too. People only want medical module 6 the rest are worthless. Sell seekers and probes ang get a regular income. Good xp and when you inventory is full grind them with practice mode on.Almost as good as grinding adv droid frames and you can potentially sell them too.


To make regular money here is a tip. get 2x inert gas, ferous metal, non-ferous metal, extrusive ore missions. Visit your harvesters and you get 3K a visit. Boring but you can make that tedious visit to your harvesters pay for themselves. I have to commute nightly to tatooine to get extrusive ore - so I take 2 x extrusive ore missions at 3K for a pair and I pay for the trip with 1.5K profit. Nuff said
