Wondering if anyone has had any hammers crafted lately using geo loot. I just found out today that the Red Geo cubes have attack cost reduction in them. What I have so far is -8 and -7. I will have to check with my weaponsmith later on to see what he can do with that.

From what I hear acklay bones are still ok but they take the place of a component that typically reduces SAC. But if you can cap out the damage with high enough bones then you can just experiment the sac down. I'm curious to see what using the cubes to cap out the sac first and then put the rest into damage would do. Will report any significant findings when I find out.

I USED TO take Defense Stacker 2....do you?

I was told by my usual Weaponsmith that the major problem with Acklay bones is that they don't have a speed mod, which means while you would get a damage bonus from the bone you would lose out on the attack speed (and SAC) So unless you have really really nice Acklay bones to use, it's not *that* much use putting them in now

Re. Cubes/Pastes etc I'm not sure.

acklay bones aren't all there is to geono loot.

I liked using geonosian cores in my weapons that i make.

you can make a nice Ppower Hammer with yellow cubes/solidifying pastes. i managed to make a Power Hammer that had similar stats as my pre Cu hammer. Stats were around 1124 2.79s 109SAC i believe after a max damage 8% slice.

used 12 max damage solidifying agent and 15max damage yellow cubes...

Also for a nice SAC friendly Hammer use red geo Cubes.

I know dear, hence my closing sentence - Cubes/Pastes I'm not sure on their usefulness now, as I've not looted any worth trying

Just on the Geo Cave though, is it me or does it seem a lot easier since CU?

It's easier, but I don't know if i'd say a lot easier. Granted I did solo it but it took me a little while. And a couple of guys who wanted the badge helped me with acklay. In a group that place is not much of a problem though, but it never was unless the spawn was messed up.

For informations sake my best looting down there came off of Droideka's believe it ornot. Last time I was there they didn't drop anything, now they drop stuff almost every single time.

Still waiting to play around with making a hammer.
