Hi,I just made Master, and i made this Adv. Sword Core Schem and im wondering if should even bother using resources on it? Is it any good?


dmg. 40-36 speed -0.56 range mod. 9 9 9 Cost: h4 a4 m3

One more thing, is 217 max. dmg. any good on an unsliced two handed curved sword?


Thanx, Wep Smithie (LRB)

I just hit master as well. I made a 2-handed curved sword and got it to 2.7 speed, 259 max damage (unsliced) using my 10 experimentation points. so, depending on the speed, that could be a great sword you made.

my advice is just trial and error, see what works for you and have fun making some swords...the profession is very enjoyable if you let it be

I agree. I've been having so much fun everytime i got a new skill box. it was exciting to make my very first Vibro Knuckler, or LLC, even if the stats sucked on it, it was great to be able to make them.



Now that I hit master, i'm going to do a factory run of 30-40 2-handed Curved Swords (the best i can possibly make them). I am going to name them "Rodian Death Blade" and go to coronet, and just give them away to my Rodian brothers and sisters, as part of a celebration for hitting master weaponsmith, as well as a way to get my name out there through some advertising and word of mouth.


so if any of you are Rodians on Lowca, keep an eye out for Teero giving away swords tonight sometime.




By the way: The Rodian Death Blade is a sword i looted off a Rodian Bounty Hunterin Knights of the Old Republic 2, and since i love Rodians, and both of my Lowca characters are Rodians, I figured that'd be a great name to name these swords.

Oreet, your numbers don't seem to match. I am using 999SR Polymer, 1000SR steel on the 2H sword, and 869UT Dolovite Iron on my server and my stats are 251dmg max and 2.5speed. are you sure that's not supposed to be 249dmg max? I checked Lowca resources and our top Dolovite matches, but we have better Steel (1000 to 999) and Polymer (999 to 993).

it actually seems you should be making 250dmg max 2H swords @ 2.6spd.


Wep, other longer tenured WS on your server are probably using Sepiop Polymer (992SR), Itoce Duralloy Steel (998SR), and Tricopy Dolovite Iron (873UT), so comparitively no, 217dmg max isn't very good when stacked against an 8-10month weaponsmith. Your top server Adv Sword Cores are either going to be 43/43 or 44/44. 250-251dmg max is what most of your unsliced 2H swords should be to gain position with the top WS of your server.

there is a good chance that i could be wrong about those numbers.


i know that when i made the advanced sword core, the green bar for the resource was filled the whole way.


i also know that when i made the 2-handed sword, the green bar for the metal (can't remember exactly what type it needed) was just about completely full, and the polymer was about 3/4ths of the way up.


i am positive that the speed on the sword was 2.7, but the damage might have been in the 240s, i'm not sure.
