I was driving to the village to trade in my merchant xp, wishing there was a way to gain FS crafting xp without having to resort to gungan heads or speeders again so I could be an FS crafter, when an idea hit me (yes, it hurt). I think the biggest barrier to SWs getting FS conversion (besides the lame we're a JtL prof and thus space prof) is the disportionate difference between our chassis and the rest of our components. Let me put it this way, architects typically grind gungan heads, but if they wanted they could grind walls or some other useful component, and the ex / time rate is all that different in the long run. The difference between crafting chassis and anything else is just HUGE.

So here is the concept I thought up: remove xp gain from chassis. Obviously, due to our huge xp requirements to master, the xp needed per box will have to be rebalanced with this change. But I think this idea hold merit. What does everyone else think? Try to think on this not only as the Master grinding FS but also as the Novice trying to gain Master, as this would bring sweeping changes to our experience gains.
