Smuggler Archive

I shall attempt to explain how it all works.

first off.....as a smuggler tweaks your item the higher up its custom score goes,

now on to the stats...there are 3 categories to pick and choose from on weapons and 4 on armor..you can pick and choose a vareity so long as the total customization level does NOT go over 100% and on some items lower than 100% ..not sure why that is. Inside those categories there are 3 to 4 tiers of improvement depending on wich one you want to do, each tier requires the one before it, before it can be aplied. Also some enhancements require a looted component to be preformed. Below is a listing of each.

WEAPONS --Part needed | stat bump% | (custom%)

Increase speed
1)Rebuild wepon body--no parts 2% (20%)

2) Reduce barrel weight--simple tool kit 4% (25%)

3)Streamline load mechanisim--finely crafted tool kit 7% (25%)

4)Rebuild flash charger--Delicate trigger assembly 12% (30%)

Enhance damage
1) Replace stock capacitor--no part 2% (20%)

2) Overcharge energy core--simple tool kit 4% (20%)

3) Embed experimantal core booster-- Illegal core booster 8% (20%)

Increase critical strike chance
1)mount improved range finder--simple tool kit 3% (20%)

2)Notch and file grip--finely crafted tool kit 5% (40%)

3) Install feather touch trigger assembly--delicate trigger ass. 10% (40%)

Its worth noteing here that while the custom % is cumulative the stat boost % dose not appear to be, (i have not yet done the math just reporting what i see in the window) for instance the weapon's description would tell you what stats have been enhanced and the custom level , so if you had an EE3 carbine and all 3 tiers of damage were donr to it it would show a damage bonus of +8% and a custom level of 60%

now some of the armor categories may need some explaination.

Enhance Resilliance = a delay to the item's decay effects

Improve impact deflection = a chance to reduce damage to the armor by 50%

Add Hardening = a chance to reduce damage taken to the PLAYER by 50%

Armor break reduction = reduces the effect of opponents armor break skill
