NOTE: Pre-CU BH Armor was all converted to "crafted". However, you can select each piece and use the radial menu to "disassemble" the armor.






I´ve read all kinds of funny stuff, but this is the way i´ve understood it, plz correct me if im wrong


1) PRE-CU Bounty Armor


You click the radial menu on any PRE-CU Bh armor piece, you see the option "disassemble".
You dissamble, and then its all set for crafting in the DWB


2) POST-CU Bounty Armor


I have many friends whos BHs. They have looted BH armor schematics and made armor from them.
I read somewhere that you could apply the same method on the POST-CU BH as the PRE-CU BH armor wich means "You click the radial menu on any armor piece, you see the option "disassemble". You dissamble, and then its all set for crafting in the DWB". We tried to dissemble a POST-CU helmet (Made from alootedBH armor schematic)today, first my BH friend tried, then he traded the helmet over to My alt (whos Master DE) but i couldnt dissemble it either.


3) Conclusion


Is it just PRE-CU BH Armors and LOOTED BH Armors (not schematics) who can be made into Mando ArmorParts?

With many trips to the DWB under my belt I run into the same problem again an again. I havnt figured a way around this an its very very upsetting to me an my groups everytime we go. It's always the same , we get to section B or the mines an out of nowhere cloakers from a rivial guild drag 10 + mobs ontop of our groups trying to kill em. We have made it past em a few times only to have the cloakers do it again an again till our groups dead. This is very frustrating an makes every1 in the group mad. I dont know how many times we have reported em , What are you to do when this happens ? 1 guild sometimes even 1 person "who thinks they own the place an are defending it from any1 getting lower than the caves" becuase they camp it all day an sell thier minerials an loots for profit. I have tried everything besides having a csr follow me down an witness this themself's. What are you to do ?

If cloakers are dragging mobs onto you, the mobs wont attack you unless you attack the mobs, cloakers hold the aggro, I don't see how your getting killed unless you just all freak out and start attacking everything, you can pick them off one at a time, as long as everyone attacks the same mob, the others will still follow the cloaker around....

Not calling BS... but I am very curious how you were able to work around the timer on the Droid Engineer's Crafting Room. Last time I checked (and this was within a month-ish ago) there was still a 60 minute timer that did not allow entry to the forge room by anyone for 60 minutes after a jetpack or mandalorian armor piece was crafted there... has the timer been reduced or disabled?

No, once you put the 4 parts for a piece of armor the droid will not take any more parts. In fact, you will not get another messege for 30 seconds which will be the hardening message.

But, you already have.



Well, I don't know who told you there was a timer, they are wrong. I've been at the droid room with three groups before and the only timer is the five minutes the room is lock down while they are in there craftingand another five after they are kickout.



I've got to ask how you check this timer. Did you go twice and got down there and it didn't let you in? Just before this record run we went with two short groups. I was leading one and Grundel the other. We crafted two jetpacks within 10 minutes of each other. Just as soon as Grundel was kickout I started hitting the keypad. It unlock 5 minutes later. So on that run I would say there were 2 jetpacks crafted within 7 minutes of each other.

You need to update the Post CU Guide to reflect that the room can be used again 5 minutes after a group is kickout. I never tried to craft more then one pack pre CU--it just took to much work to get buffs and all back together to do more then one in a 3 hour time frame. Now that you don't have buffs like in the old system, getting kickout for a succesful run and going back in is nothing.

I have made jetpacks and then turned around to re-enter and make another, only to get a "room is in use" message that doesn't allow entry for 60 minutes from the time the previous one was made. Did you use different MDE's or Artisan's to open the door and/or make the jetpacks? Based on your success, my current theory is that the timer is set for an individual, and that has stopped us because Kiero is both the MDE and the Artisan - and it is one or the other of those professions that is subjected to the timer.







I guess we should keep this dicussion in this thread..



I have gotten the room in use, but just spam the door 7 or 8 times and then pause for 5 or so seconds. Then hit the keypad again.. I used the radial menu open option to get it open. All 6 of these jetpacks were crafted with my crafter, same guy on every run. There was a time if someone other then the crafter used the keypad it would bug and not let anyone in. So make sure only crafter uses the menu. The other well known bug is peope getting lock out of the room while others get in.


I isolated the problem with this issue. It would seem that once the group leader and the crafted entered the room everyone else in the group would get lock out. You should add this note to the DWB guide. The easiest way around it is to make the crafter the groupleader and have them enter the room last. If you have someone else as the lead then have the group leader enter second to last and the craft last. This will get everyone in the room. This my not be an issues anymore as I always do it my way now. Some one else would have to test it now, I wont.


The only issue that we had, that Darlik has pointed out, was once you complete the pack the group gets kick from the room. So it normally takes one minuted 45 seconds to craft the group is still subjected to the 5 minute room limit. IE we would complete the craft and run right back into the DWB to start working back down only to get ejected a second time at the 5 minute mark. While it wasn't a big deal it just added a few more minutes onto our time.


I hope this has been of some help and good luck on your next trip.

Are you saying you just ran out of the room and then back in? Or did you get ejected from the DWB and then went all the way back down?
