The pearls and crystals can be swapped out as much as you like. None of them will decay while in the saber with the kit on it.
Outside of the kit, they'll behave normally (Decay in other unprotected sabers).
May the force be with you.

6. Assemble a Lightsaber with your good resources. If you do not get an Amazing or Critical Sucess you may cancel now and try 5-6 again, if you have resources enough for wasting more.
7. When the option to "Experiment" comes up, make sureyou drank aBespin Port.
8. Use your points in "Efficiency". Before you place a new point, drink a Bespin Port. You may, if you have the time, rest for your stomach to empty up, to be able to drink a Bespin Port for each point. The more Amazing Successes you get, the better.
Note: You want to experiment all in Efficency, becouse a Jedi's Force is everything, and a minor change in Speed/Damage is nothing.
Excellent guide. A couple of quick questions .... I have never used Bespin or Pyollian at the assembly stage! does it really help ?
Also do you experiment one point at a time ? is it not better to try lots of points on the first roll and hope for an amazing success and start again until you get one (wastes resources I know).
My Sabers so far post-cu haven't been as good as my old ones over all, but the one thing I did manage is make a fc48 saber which with the same crystals as my old saber dropped another point when assembled. i.e. pre-cu force cost 12, new saber force cost 11. So the hidden decimal appears to be saber crafting as well as the crystals.
nice for the noobs good walkthrough for thier needs. I would like to point out that i just crafted may best saber ever based on Amazings but the saber still blew monkey chunks when compared to my pre-cu sabers 
I had an amazing crafted saber ( I always destory them untill i get 1 to start ) then had 3 Amazing exp points before my best was 2. While this was nice, the saber still sucked so they need to work on this more.I see no real point in making any new sabers if you had a pre-cu saber already.

OMFG! Your saying that by using the resource crates from vet rewards you can get the best resources in *Current Shift???? I thought it was the best resources that had been produced on the server? I was so misled lol. If that is the case I soooo just wasted 5 resource crates and I might need to go cry.
A resourse grate vet reward is the best resources on the server....If u so prefer ( u can have any resources the server have ever spwned!)

They should work, but since I never crafted a saber without I do not know if they do not.

I use 1 experimentation point at a time. An artisan told me to. I do not know if this is better or not.

Thats a pretty good find, becouse it proves that you should continue to experiment on forcecost even if you believe you reached your max!
Thats why its different for me to verify the difference with bespin or not, or experiment 1 point or more. That is what I was reccomended by artisans, so that is what I do.
