Here's a nice table for those of us starting off crafting for FS Boxes. Currently the conversion rate is 5:1 -- And our cap is of course: 120,000 Weapons experience, which converts to 24,000 FS exp. Here's a nice chart I made up:
Total FS EXP for 16 crafting boxes: 4,900,000
Total Weapons EXP to convert: 24,500,000
Total runs to village to convert weapons EXP: 205
Total number of Heavy Warheads to make: 33,334
Average number of Warheads per minute: 9
Total number of hours to make 33,334: 62
Total number of resources for 33,334 Heavy Warheads: 12,333,580
Steel: 6,000,120
Thoranium Steel: 1,333,360
Skevon Gas: 2,666,720
Radioactive: 1,666,700
Polymer: 333,340
Hydron-3 Inert Gas: 333,340
Now if you Gather all of these resources without using them up as you buy them, you will need 127 items available in your house to store all of these. Each phase lasts 3 weeks, you will have 12 weeks to complete 4 skill boxes of crafting. You will need to craft 292,857 Weapons experience PER DAY to do this... which turns into 2.44 runs to the Village each day.

So how long does it take roughly to cap weaponsmith xp with warheads?
It's been so long I can't remember

i mean 5 mins.... 4 hours for the whole FS grind
Okay - 5mins, 4 hours is optimistically quick... but it felt so good getting the last 2 mil xp i needed in comparitively no time.

4 Hours for the whole grind. Geez. That is crazy. I am getting good exp right now too. takes me doing it slowly about 30 min to max 120k weapon crafting exp. I wnet from 126k converted exp to right now about 1.4 mil converted exp. That is 2 days of village work.
I only have 2 trees left to do. Have had the quests unlocked for months now just been to lazy to get to the Village to convert. Now just need to wait on the merchant exp.

Hey guys,
I'm a little bit out of the loopwhen it comes to the whole FS thing. What's the benefit of having the FS weapon crafting boxes? Originally I thought it was for assembly/experimentation - has that changed?

high % of amazings, only 3 goods in the last few months since i got the exp boxes...
Makes capping lines in components in 8 points quick. Tend to get 10 amazings (8% increase) so if you are going from say 24% to 88% in the exp line you have a fair chance of doing it before you get bored to death.

Yeah, that's the way I'm doing it, 4200 xp per build, and with the double xp/double conversion that's 16,800 xp per build. 28 BLL's maxes me out on DE xp and nets 90k FS XP. DE caps crafting xp at 240k and converts at 5:1 ratio, not sure about how WS compares in this regard. You do have loads of components to keep up with (think I might run out before double xp runs out, d'oh) but I have 7 factories set up 800m from the village to help with this.
