Just curious as to what 2nd professions Master DE's have?

Still can't make my mind up on what to send my remaining skill points on, is it worth having any merchant skills or are weapon skills desirable.

you almost need master artisan, or at least to be really really close friends with a master artisan...

In order to be a self sufficient DE, you need the following in order of priority:

1) Master Artisan
2) Merchant
3) Architect

Master artisan to make the DE components and ace Surveying, Master Merchant to set up a bunch of vendors to sell your wares and save credits on structures and vendors, and finally Architect to build power cores for power droids, as well as make Private Crafting Stations.

Private crafting stations make use of Master Artisan experimentation and assembly skills, and droid storage components, so being Master Artisan allows you to make 100% crafting stations with the right resources. A good source of secondary income, hehe.

2 & 3 and interchangeable based on which you deem as more relevant, but the cost savings Merchant grants are simply wonderful over the long run. =)

Master DE

Master Artisan

Wee bit of Merchant (get what you need for your vendor and then dump the skill Mwuhahahaha )

Rifleman - I think you might even have enough points to master it. There's nothing like getting all buffed up and slaughtering a herd of Rancors to relieve those factory run blues

ATM, but I'm not Master DE yet.
TKA not too far atm,
Merchant Planetary adv is a must,
Musician only some basic skills, and not for long I fear, Medic stim A saved my life way too many times to drop that,
Master artisan De without that must be a realy pain.

I am a Master Artisan, I have Merchant, 4/4/0/0 Thereduced Maintance is really nice in addtion to the Global Advrtising and reduction in cost. I am also a 2/2/4/2 Pistoleer. That uses up all my skill points. I might dump some of the Artisan just so I can get that Master Gunfighter badge, but as of yet I don't need to.

It really depends on your guild (if you have one)

My guild has a lot of merchants in it so all I needed was Merchant III. I picked up Master so I have the little bar bot. He takes up less room. The weapon vendor gave me a little spot in his tent and Im set up there. But what they dont really have is Architects. Originally I wanted 0 0 0 1 for the components to make power droids, but I ended up with 0 4 4 1. I can build harvesters and factories. Little bit of scout and a little bit of rifle take the rest.

Master Droid Engineer
Master Artisan - for all the electronics, the businuess line, and the surveying)
3400 Merchant -Gives me planetary advertising, 20% reduction in maintaince (pwnz for harvs) and the ability to manage my own tent.
0120 Smuggler - My orginial intent was to round it of by getting 0400 Smuggler (Slicer) but once I could slice terminals I decided there was nothing else in the tree I really wanted, so I chose feign death instead of novice pistoleer.

I can feign death, slice terminals, build droids, run two vendors in a tent with advertising, fight with a VK, fight with guns (not good at neither, but with a probot and droid stims I can deal with most of the stuff blocking my harv placement on the non-advanced planets), survey for my own stuff (I started an Artisan on TC. 64m X 3p is nothing) and... well, I like it.
