GM said he wanted the components to start out rare and he would make them more common later. Probably to let the stockpiles burn off before they start becoming more common. Then there should be stable flow of toolkits.

Only problem with that tho is not every smuggler has stockpiles of the wuk's or auk's and from what I am seeing of late is that if you cannot respec over to m.smuggler then it will be a VERY long road to hoe to get there.

Those micro platings drop in space (at least I got one offered by a friend who said he looted one in space)

How so? It's all pistol xp - there is no such thing as slicing xp anymore, so scarcity of kits is irrelevant to that.

Simple toolkit looted from Gungans on Naboo and got a finely crafted kit from a voritor (go figure) on Dantooine. Also looted some simple and finekits from Drall's on Talus. Also got a few core's from salvaged WUK's so guess i got lucky there

I've been slicing mission terminals and its still giving me 100 xp for it. I haven't actually checked to see if its racking up in my skills window, but it flashes up on the screen that I get the xp.

And because you don't need tools to slice terminals anymore, you can keep slicing it over and over and over. If the stuff is actually racking up, I'm gonna use it to trade for force xp.

I looted a Finely Crafted Toolkit off a stormtrooper.

Terminal slicing exp is a bug and will be removed. All smuggler exp is pistol/combat based, not slicing based. I just had analt charactermaster smuggler last weekend and I can say that definitively.

Remove a bug from the game. Silly one, you know they take forever to remove bugs. Still gonna go see if the bug allows me to convert it. But yeah, you're right, its pistol/combat that gets you up the skill tree.

Remove a bug...we have more bugs than ever with the latest two publishes....

I had to trade triggers and intraframes for simple and fine toolkits. Too bad I wasted it all on maxing critical chance- which also maxes customization to 100% allowing nothing else to be added like speed or damage customizing. And which requires a simple toolkit for the first level of critical slice- so I wasted all of those tools and have a pistol and rifle with 100% customization and no rewarding results from it.

My dream of witnessing the power of a critical lastditch is crushed. It makes me wonder if it was a last minute stealth nerf- I can already hear their screams of terror and cries of nerf if lastditch had a %10 chance to do double dmg.

I've looted plenty of trigger assemblies and Mando pieces from NS Rangers and Stalkers, but no toolkits.
