Memories here.... I miss my Gikopine duralloy and Maeda crys-bicor steels. /sigh (on Valcyn by the way). I finally ran out of both, and I'm sad. LOL I mean geeezzz... Gikopine was so good, I could have spread it on some toast and eaten it... same for maeda. Mmmmm.....


Anyone else have some fond shipwright resource memories?


On this subject...

Could be that I'm just not watching SWGCraft enough, but the resource spawns (on Valcyn) have been just horrid for the past few months. Sure, there have been a couple good resources during that time, but I can't remember when some good grav fp or ferm silc ore came up. I am now out of both. LOL - High CD/OQ steel seems tobe dry as of late as well. I will do some more digging through the bowels of the SWGCraft database to see if I perhaps missed good spawns of those resources.


I remember one of the recent (post-cu) patch notes saying that they up'd the spawn rate of good stuff. Granted, I know it's all randomly generated, but the dry spell on Valycn makes me wonder.

Ooo! I almost forgot another one I miss - Epabine ferm silc. ore. Bestengines I ever made. 3k left.


Actually, that was the only ferm silc ore on Valcyn since JTL launch with an OQ over 800. Nothing else has even come close.

I don't know any good ones that I miss off hand, but the spawns on Infinity have been pretty poopy as well of late. (Either that or I'm not surveying in the right places.)

Heya Yivvits!!


My favorite was the first run of really good crystalized bicorbantium steel that spawned on Lowca. I don't remember the name or anything but it had beautiful stats. That was also the first time I realized that the shipwright resources stayed in shift longer than the other stuff...oh, that was such a nice week and a half...


And more recently, the 1000HR (and 4 other stats 900+) that I stumbled across on Rori. God I love accidentally finding great resources.


(Oh, I'm also Anykk on Valcyn - Bristow's husband - just in case you didn't remember )

Hey Nero/Anykk!


Yeah, those unexected ones are the best. Even better when you find a +90% density. Funny how something as dumb as getting a good resource spawn makes a crafter's day. heheh

That's a good one as well. Still miss gikopine though. LOL


Some VERY good iron came up on Yavin and Dath this last weekend.... and my toon with the free lots has a combat level of 10. Even with cammo kits it took me 1.5hours to survey and place 5 harvestors on Yavin. Yippe!! Granted, with the stats on the iron, it's well worth the time.


Still waiting for a good grav. fiberplast spawn though. Any of you on other servers had really good grav fiberplast yet? This might be something for a new post, but perhaps they should consider upping the number of these special resource spawns. Just thinking out loud here...

I got all the best resources ever on my server. Burned up 8 resourec deeds so far WOOT!


I am a Chef by profession and a Shipwright by hobby. I love this profession. IfI wasn't so commited to Chef, this would certainly be my second choice. I do love the fact that Chef has afforded me the luxury of "building ships in my garage" for fun. I am certainly having a blast. 20 more resource deeds to go. My fleet is gonna be awesome!

Hehe, I still have millions (well ok like 1) of gikopine and negoefine
None of that good ore tho, sigh.
And yeah, I have 11 harvs on that iron. That stuff is tasty! May have to get 10 more on it.. hmm.

This one will kill ya. I ran out of bulk steel during my hour grind to Master Shipwright, and used about 200k of Gikopine in the grind ships

(sorry, I don't sell resources)

Thats not so bad, at least you got to use your resources. I spent months stockpiling resources. I had over 2 million steel which was one of the best spawns on lowca. My shipwright character had 2 million credits in his account, but I borrowed them for another character and didn't log him in for a couple weeks. One day, I load in and head for my house and Poof! Its gone. I load my shipwright in and realised the house ran out of maintenace and his account was down to zero. I lost 5 million resource units, a blue rug, an orange rug, a gong, 3 sets of armor, a +42 crafting station, 2 yt-1300 seat sections, and a boat load of other stuff. And there was nothing I could do about it. It was my own stupid fault for not checking the maintenace. Luckily I had 200k in his inventory along with a couple other good resources. I have been slowly building back up my stockpile, but I also lost about 30 heavy harvesters.

Wow - that sucks. :-(


About 7 or 8 months ago I lost a factory. CSR's claim I didn't pay maint but I know I did. Lost about 800k of 1000oq inert gas. Could have been much worse I guess.
