Droid Engineer Archive

1. The schematic for the droid toolkit is obtained through a quest.


2. The schematic is obtained as an inventory item and appears are a scroll with a red ribbon/rope around it.


3. Only a Tailor can "learn" the schematic, and therefor only a tailor can make the droid toolkit.


4. The schematic has 3 charges, meaning only three toolkits can be made from it before it disappears from the person's schematics list.


5. The main component (at the moment) for the toolkit is the discountinued Droid Repair Tool, an aritsan-made item that was completely useless so the devs took it out.


6. The toolset is a bandolier or sash of some kind that gives bonuses to droid assembly, customizationand experimentation.

Droid Repair Tool: http://mywebspace.quinnipiac.edu/mahealy/swin/DroidRepairTool.jpg

What I would like to get the answers to, are the following...

• How much are the toolkits going for on people's servers?


• How much are the repair tools (components) going for on people's servers?


• How much are the 3-charge schematics going for on people's servers?


• Is the quest Imperial-only, or is it just for an Imperial NPC and anyone can do it?


• Where can we find the quest?


• Do the bonuses increase depending on the level of the tailor, or is it fixed at +5/+5/+3 assembly/custom/exper?

I have no clue what they are going for, but the 3 uses can be used to make factory schematics, assuming you have identical repair tools laying around, so theoretically, 2997 toolkits can be made from the limited schematic.

I received this as a reward in the Imperial theme park, not sure if that's the only place it's available.

Edit: And yes, the bonuses are fixed. Tailors currently cannot experiment on their items.

I believe they also take the heavy duty clasps, which are a loot drop, if you could manage to find a drop of 1000 of them with the same serial number....

---

True. It's why I said "theoretically"

I've heard, unconfirmed, that you can get a limited use schematic for the clasps, but like I said, it's unconfirmed. But my main point was that you're not limited to simply 3 toolkits out of the schematic.

Thanks again, 1-starring troller. You'rethatlittle angel on my shoulder.

Here's the info on the schematic from swgtailor.com:

Schematic name: Droidsmith Tool Set >
Screenshots: Ingredients; Stats
Location found: Imperial Theme Park, Col. Veers
Number of Uses: 3
Ingredients: 1 cargo pocket, 20 fibreplast, 15 metal, 10 metal, 1 reinforced fibre panel, 15 non-ferrous metal, 1 droid repair tool, 2 identical heavy duty clasp from a factory crate
Appearance: Mercenary Bandolier
Stats: Droid assembly 5, Droid customization 5, Droid Experimentation 3.
Restrictions: Like all bandoliers, presumably cannot be worn with a backpack
Palette: Presumably leather/white like the mercenary bandolier
Additional Info: Is not currently craftable because there is no such thing as a droid repair tool! However, if you find a droid repair tool from before it was taken out of the game (6 months ago) that will work!

Here's the link to the page:
http://zero.hastypastry.net/~shirow/swgtailor/public_html/staticpages/index.php?page=2004021200101534#droid

With 2 identical clamps that brings the theoretical max down to 1497 from a 3-use schematic.

I have one of these, and just wish it was a belt as opposed to a sash - then I could wear my backpack full of resources and components as well
