It IS a Shipwright skill, but many are agreeable to REing parts for people.

There are several excellent SW's on starsider. Tomo is one of the best, although his vendor was empty last night. His shop is outside of cnet. there is also a good one on Dant called "GALAXY" that sells some RE'd components. Some others that are good are "BlastIon" and "OK". It is just a matter of looking.




Thanks for the plug Pace. Yep that's my shop and RE is my primary business but I also have 4 vendors with general shipwright inventory - chassis, repair kits, droid commands and some low end looted parts. In addition to tailor, architect and loot vendors the shop keeps me pretty busy. RE is my love though.

Hehe...thanks for being a good customer! If anybody has all the parts needed for an RE job Im happy to RE them for free btw. I also keep a steady loot storage of 1.5k -2k at most times so filler parts are not usually a problem for me. Gonna be putting out more new RE inventory this week.

Unfortunately, every time I've gone to Merry's vendors, they haven't been stocked with anything I need. Lots of stuff, but doesn't ever fit whatever has gotten me out there in the first place.


Besides Merry's vendors, which I agree are good, and well set up, I would recommend Tomo near Coronet, as he's the JTL Corr.. and usually has a good stock selection, or Orske (OK brand shipwright) outside Tyrena.

Thanks again for the info. I bought a couple parts from GALAXY last night that help some. I still got blown up on my last Tier 3 mission, so I need to figure out how to avoid insta-dying on the third part of the quest, after blowing up Major Kroger and killing the first group of TIEs in the Endor system.

Hey Darkefang.....I sent you a few tells last night but you did not answer....figured you were up in space and those crazy chat boxes are still messed up . Anyway send me a tell if you're on tonight and lets talk about what your current ship loadout is. Could be there are some areas we could improve to get you thru Tier 3 without too much trouble. That or ask me to be your wingman. I get tired being couped up in this store all the time lol.

I spent a long period of time last night LD and unable to log back in, so I figure that's probably when you sent me tells. I would have thought the tells would show up when I got logged back in, but who knows. I ended up at the Dant mining outpost, so they might have gotten spammed away.

Thanks for the offer. I'll send you a tell when I'm online. I think my biggest problem is that I'm a terrible pilot. No matter how much I spin and weave, I seem to get hit with every shot.

Hmm....Lol well with a little more experience and some help from other pilots that can be remedied. Everyone uses different tactics. Some are more useful based on the type ship you are flying and your weapon loadout. Personally I'm so used to flying the big heavy TANK ships (Rhixherk / Krayt) that the way I fly is much different from someone flying a JSF or other lightweight fighter. And getting hit is something I'm very used to since I don't dodge and weave that much plus I'm a very BIG target to hit at. But with the right shields, cap and use of droid commands (read CTSS) that is really not much of a problem.


Sure send me a tell. Be glad to help out if I can.
