Weaponsmith Archive

You basically have two options with respect to the XP cap.

1.) Make friends with local weaponsmiths for training.

2.) Save up plenty of credits and be in a town with a WS trainer. FYI, to get first tier boxes, it costs about 6K I believe.

If you want easy money, buy a speederbike, learn to survey, and run survey missions. 3600K per every two missions (and you usually take two at once). You can drop harvesters too to make money of the resources where you survey, then sell em on the bazaar or save them for when you hit master. Or just harvest steel and do your grinding that way.

I agree with Vacknir. Grind Metal Staves until you can get Munitions 2, then grind out Heavy Warheads. At 730xp or soeach, and with a macro that can cycle 5 of these per minute, you're looking at getting XP around 8-10 times faster than just grinding Staves, barrels, or whatever.

This is, of course, assuming you have a bogload of Hadron-3 Inert Gas, Skevon Reactive gas, Thoranium Steel, other steel, polymer, and radioactives...

anything else high xp that can be made with mostly steel only?

I actually ground WUKs to get from novice to FA1. They're a little more "click" intensive (IE: require more than just steel), but you can also sell them if you don't feel like practicing. Or, since I was grinding slicing too, use 'em yourself.
