For those of my fellow wookies that may be interested...


My Character, Terrapin, made a Bowcaster today and thought I'd share it with you.


This is with Master Experimentation, but extremely low quality Quandranium. Only stuff available on my server "Bloodfin" is 368 quality, 496 conductivity. Droonium is 913 overall quality, 413 conductivity. So as you can see, there lots of room for improvement with better quality resources.


Other resources were very good, but certainly not the best there is, so overall, I think this weapon has some great potential.


I'm still not sure what type of dmg it does. It fires green which leads me to believe its acid, but I'm told Energy.


I like the Would Dmg of 22.48. Nice for PvP.


These stats are not sliced, but are experimented. Didn't wait for "Amazing Success", but did use "Great Success" I believe was the terms.

Very nice, but is the condition that low on all bowcasters, or is it your materials fault?

The low condition of the BowCaster is not due to the materials. We have not received confirmation from SOE if this is intended, or a bug. Experimenting Durability will increase it, but not by nearly enough to make it worth doing.


The HAM costs are high, but can be brought down by experimentation. In that particular product, all my experiementing went into damage. After getting a few of those sliced, the damage went up to about 275, or the spd came down to about 4.2. So with better materials, my next production will experiment on both damage and "effeciency" which will reduce the HAM costs.


It's a really fun weapon to use, but given the incredible effort involved in creating it, let alone obtaining the materials, a condition in the 100's is a bit absurd IMO.
