I looted a pretty horrible component today, and now I'm curious what other junk is out there.

Kuat Engineering RCT-Z Reactor
Level 8 Certification
Armor: 722.7/722.7
HP: 722.7/722.7
Mass: 42162.7
Reactor Generation Rate: 4795.6

So, wow, not only is it too heavy to realistically stick in anything other than a bomber-type ship, it has the lowest energy generation I've ever see. Nice.

Wow that is bad haha. thing weighs more then a loaded Z95 head hunter. I myself looted a Speed 25 engine that weighed something on the order of 20k mass. I have tier 1-3 engines im saving for when i get an A-wing i have a engine that does 69.9 speed and only weighs 1,700 mass that will leave me plenty or reserve mass or an excellent shield.

Nice. I would have one suggestion: if it's RE level is 2, spend some time in the bazaar looking for an engine with the same name but a lower mass. Then you can have a shipwright Reverse Engineer the two together for a slight speed boost and mass reduction.

Already did that actually, had a second one speed 55 of the same name. The engine started out like 67 or 68 but i didnt have a master RE it so it only got like a 2% boost. Which is still nice. Its a Sironian engine BTW looks really nice, it has giant intakes like a pod racer.

You dont need stuff of the same name, only of the same type!
For example you justneed 4 lvl4 engines, not 4 lvl4 "SoroSub Über Accelerators"

Gotya beat on that one
Looted a 71.6 speed engine with 1200 mass
Also, just so you know, doesn't matter if the SW is master or not, the % increase is based on the level of the item, all lvl 2 items get a 2% boost.

mhh... interesting ... i have a lvl 7 - 92.2 speed engine .. does it matter with which components i am
re-engineering it? for example, i use that one and some crappy lvl 7 - 50 speed engines ...
do i get the bonus to the 92.2 engine or do i get a bonus to the avarage of all engines?

Bonus goes on the 92.2 IT will take the best stats from each engine, put them al together and apply a bonus to them. So say you have that 92.2 engine but it has 10K mass, the 50 engine has 4K mass, when you put them together you will get a 4K mass enigne with 92.2 speed and then it applies the bonuses.
