fighting NK, or taking on a corvette hardly constitutes "giving" them away. beside why should i be forced to go to a SW,pay thousandsof creditswhen i want a new ship. presonally i think its much more rewarding to earn a ship, then just to fork over money







So should ship components decay from use like everything else so that shipwrights havea steady flow of customers like everyone else in the game?


Heaven forbid that you have to spend some money on a ship rather than get 2 buddies together, run out to Necrosis, and kill him in 5 minutes to get a new ship




what are you talking, every time i repair something it decays. if you are talking just about the chass it self, then no. "Heaven forbid" i just shell out money rather then earn it.






Thank you for proving my point for me... you would rather not pay for the ship up front and not pay for another due to decay... so you just want it for free and last forever. Good plan... *scr3w the shipwrights*.


I personally believe that all current *loot* ships should be schematics only that a SW then has to build for you. In exchange... the ship chassis dealer costs need to be elimintated so that the only cost is from a shipwright.

I dont understand why the chassis vendor is even involved.



The SW takes resources, such as STEEL, and builds you blueprints? Wow, those suckers must be heavy! Change it to a deed, instead of blueprints, and cut the chassis vendor out of the picture.

i never said that, if you are going to quote me, quote me right at least. yeah screw the shipwrights thats my whole plan. listen, i have no problem paying for things, shipwrights have to make a living just like ever other crafting profression, otherwise no one would do it. I have no problem with paying for ship parts, or chass. but why should i be forced to whenever i want something new ALWAYS have to go to a SW. Why shouldnt i be able to quest for something, i mean give me a break, thats what MORPGs are all about.

No, that is what all the OTHER MMO's were about, SWG has, or at least was for the first 2 years, different from ANY other MMO in that the best stuff you could get was from Players (not including DOT's)


You want questing loot, go play WoW or any of the plethora of other games that will do this for you and leave this alone. Some of us like this system, and have been liking it for over 2 years.
