Hey guys,
I'm a master artisan, and i just lewted a +25 Artisan Expermintation tape.
So far i haven't found anything i can use the extra points on. (that i currently make/use)
Are there componets that you guys use that help with using 12 points on?
I'm also thinking that it might help with the JTL that's in the works. Can i get your in-put on that as well?
Thanks!

Speeders, swoops or Power ups. Its not worth it to use on DE sub-components.
Hmm you could get 3 experiment points if you were Human or it might be 4, cann't remember if we get +15 or just +10

Humans are +15 already on Artisan Experimentation so you would have +4 points IF you're human.
Any architect obsessed with his Crafting station ratings is going to love you to death. 
It might also boost up PSGs for Armorsmiths too, they use Artisan parts.
It would not help a DE at all tho, sorry...

All stats cap at +125, so you could only ever have 12 points (although I think it can be 14 if you were force sensitive)

yeah i didn't think so.. wonder how much i could get for that belt on the forums LOL
as far as the force stuff.. the 20 some odd jedi that i know say that it's not "expermintation" on the force stuff.. it's more like a crafting bonus.. kinda like you get with port.. i believe they said the dev's nerfed that idea because they didn't want to have people going above the +12 point cap.. as well as screwing the thousands of poeple who paid millions to get their extra points.. 
i could be wrong.. but that's just what i heard.. would be cool if someone could confirm that...

I'm glad if they nerfed that idea. Otherwise you'd have to be a jedi/FS to be the best crafter. It should be either find/pay for the tapes or do the quests to get +120.

Incorrect, only DEFENSIVE stats cap at +125, these are crafting stats.
There is a max of +25 per source of enhancement fro all abilities tho. The +15 is a Human bonus that you get just for being Human, so you can still add +25 to it to get +140.

Then why aren't there 14 point crafters running around?
All stats cap at 125, no matter what. Your dispay does not reflect this for combat or any other stat - for instance, I can put on a ton of BE clothing that gives me +160 wound treatment and that is what will display on my skill set (ctrl-S), but the system will not recognize anything above +125. The display is misleading because it doesn't reflect the caps.
BTW, the actual cap is 125, but since you need 10 points of +experimentation to get 1 experimentation point, the practical cap is 120 (the extra 5 is useless since it can never reach 130 in order to get 13 points). So it's useless to put together a suit that has any more than +20 (for a Master of course).

Because only ARTISAN EXPERIMENTATION is +15 for Humans. No other craft gets a bonus like that by race (experimentation).
There ARE 14 Point Artisans....
But does anyone care?
No, they don't make anything that really matters with experimentation.
