Ok, now that i have gotten master and all the ships i want i ma now starting on the long journey towards getting all the nice shiny RE stuff to make those ships better, the first thing i want are some authentic looking weapons for my heavy x, and by authentic i mean the correct model on the ship and the correct blaster bolt (red), now i have been looking through the SW FAQ above and i cannot seem to find any looted weapons over level 8 that fire red lasers, and the lvl 8 weapon does not look correct on the ship, now can anyone confirm that this is correct and can you also advise me how to get effective and correct looking weapons on my x-wing, as i dont really want lvl 5 or 6 weaponswhich look rightwhen i can mount 2 lvl 9 or 10s

You might look for some nice lvl7 player crafted blasters (red). LVL 9's will be way to heavy for your ship.

Disruptors have red bolts and the curved emitter on the tip of the barrel.

I have two RE'd Borstels, the Neutral level 8 reward cannons with 14.1 EPS, on my heavy X-Wing, they look like the classic cannons and fire a red-orange bolt.

I think (not 100%) but if you get a shipwright to RE the weapon for you, the end make for the components phyiscal appearance is based off the first item placed in the tool. As long as they stick the desired component in first (ie- that disrupter mentioned above) you should end up with an uber version with that one's desired 'look'.

Im talking about my heavy x, i have 2 lvl 9 Experimental blasters, but the weapon model is not the canon one, i want the weapon with the little curved peices at the emitters like in the movie.


You would have thought they would have put something in at higher levels that matched the movies

I'd love to know if there are any that have the emitters on the end of the barrel.

damn..i know this is gonna sound really picky, but whilst the exp disruptor does indeed have the right model & bolt, it does not have the right sound, im beginning to think there are none for the heavy x, the loot must not have caught up with the ROTW heavy ships yet


Its a shame really, i spose ime just gonna have to have a standard x as my cannon ship then

ah, a fellow canon seeker ;-)



took me forever to find the right loot for my x-wing... longer for my y-wing, let me tell ya... best part is that once it looks right on one of your ships, it'll carry over to the others. I used to switch blasters from my A-Wing and X-Wing all the time.


For the X-wing, I use Subpro Triple Blaster MK3s as the base weapon for REing. This'll give you the classic look and a red beam (not a crimson red like the crafted blasters, but it's still nice)


For the Y-Wing and B-Wing "ion cannons", I use the Rendilli Advanced for the base... it's a lvl 9 loot and RARE. good luck on that one. Engines are easy... when you look them, just go to a starship terminal and slap them on your ship. when you find the design you're aiming for, get more of the same level, find your friendly SW and have them RE those engines with your "choice" engine as the first piece. This is how I have my Y-Wing and X-Wing engines set.
