I am fairly new to the game as well as to WS, I have been playing for about a month and decided to take up WS to give me something else to do. I am currently MWS well besides the damm app points I need to get the master box. Well here are my noob questions..


1. For the drop'd schematics are they 1 time use or reusable? If reusable do they just go into your schematics under the dpad or you keep them in inventory until your going to use them.


2. When you craft by a crafting station and are given the option to experiment you are also given some other options I believe they are make schematic, make prototype can anyone briefly explain these to me?


3. I know about harvesting and what not but I hear some people saying they have 10 20 40 lots, what do people mean by this?


4. I have seen a bandolier on vendors that gives +3 to wep exp is this a loot item or a quest item?


Sorry for the noob questions, I usually read as much of the boards and I can while on break at work but its the simple questions that seem hard to find answers to as it's assumed most people have been playing for a while.


Thanks in advance,

Astik

2. A prototype is just a single make of the item with all the experimentation values that you gave it. A manufacturing schematic is a schematic with a limit up to 1000 that can be put into a factory to makeseveral *copies* of the prototype you just created. (A mass production run basically)


3. Anymore than 10 lots, unless they have more than 1 account, means that they probably did a lot swap. Two people who play on different servers make a character on the other persons server just so that person can use those lots. (hope you can follow that.)


4. It is a Weaponsmith's toolkit. It is a lot schematic that is given to a tailor. I'm not sure how many times they can use it, I think it's between 3-5.


That should be everything.

I am still a bit confused about the lot thing, does that mean I can only have 10 houses, factories or what not to keep my stuff in?


I think I understand the prototype and schematic thing, I am assuming they are both used in factories which is used for making crates of things although I have yet to play around with this I am sure it shouldn't be to hard.


Thanks for the answers

You get 10 lots per character. This includes, houses, factories, harvesters etc. Which means, use your lots wisely. It isn't easy to be a weaponsmith with just one character. I myself have two accounts and have a lot swap for 10 factories, thus I have 30 lots total.


Only the schematic is used in a factory. The prototype is just a single make of what you just experimented. If you chose to create a prototype, then the object will be made and put into your inventory. If you chose to make a manufacturing schematic, you will get a screen that will ask for a limit, between 1-1000. Once you chose your limit, it is put into your datapad until that limit is reached.

So to do that lot switch with someone I have them put down whatever structures I need, give me admin and then I can delete them from admin list so they are mine? Is that how it works or is it a trust thing?

The swap is a trust thing, yes. For harvies that they have placed and given you admin, you will be able to perform every function save renaming the installation and destroying the installation, and they will be able to perform every function (including empyting the hopper).


It's not strictly necessary to do a cross-server lot trade (which is frowned upon by some). I rent four lots fromtwoother players on the same server. I pay them 10K per week and don't ask them to move the harvesters more than once a week.


It's a bit inconvenient, not being able to move those four harversters, but it's worth it, for now. When I have a good base set of resources I will stop doing this.

Don't believe you can remove the structure's owner from the adminlist, so you'll just have to trust them ^_^
