Thread: What would you like to see for Weaponsmith Inspirations?
One of the ideas for Weaponsmith that has been mentioned is granting you the ability to change the color or particle effets that go with your weapons' energy bolts.
So the question is, do you like this idea? What are some other benefits you can see as useful to you, but would not detract from you being a "whole Weaponsmith" if you didn't have the Inspiration?
Thanks!
Here's the original thread if you wish to post there too.

As far as inspirations go now, there is a 10% better assembly roll bonus. I would like to see the option of having a 10% better Experimentation roll bonus (like Research center & Bespin Port). This could give people a temporary crafting session like the research center but at their own shop. I know I'm not the only one that doesn't live in a research center, but grabs parts and resources, travels to the closest town only to realize I left a vital part or resource back at the shop.
Another option would be to take a 5% assembly and 5% experimentation combined or something like that. Of course you can get these things or better other places, but would be much more convenient.
omg don't touch weaponsmith. Everytime i see patch notes I pray I see nothing weaponsmith so nothing is gimped up...that being said, i guess colours of bolts be cool /shrug. I'd rather see 'skins' available so ye can choose the look of said weapon like you used to be able to choose the scope/barrel appearance.Okay maybe not all (like say dl44 xt) but surely the ALR, T21,Elite, FWG5, laser carbine, beserker etc could do with 4 or 6 appearances
omg but laser rifles are butt-ugly
gripe: not enough useful weapons to enhance. Used to be I could enhance virtually anything and it would be viable (krayt dh17? gorax strikers, ee3s etc etc etc. Now i end up making the same half-dozen weapons over and over

I would like to see Insperation give a chance for a Critical Sucess on assembly, Say 1 in 500 Chance. A Something that was a Critical Sucess would give the item range value higher then normally could be obtained and a schematic could not be made out of it. Ie a Message you are not able to remember how you did this and it can not be duplicated.
The option to 'chrome' your barrells or use Ivory (horn) handles and such for expensive looking weapons, let's 'bling' this profession up.

Being able to add Color to weapon names again.
Each WS can pick from a wide variety of emblems, or make our own. Which we can stamp each weapon made by. Instead of writting our name we can have our emblem there. Yeah i know you can examine it and see object creator, but still be cool to have an emblem and show our trademark.
Also like to see faction based weapons, like the AS's get with armor. Be used only by the weaponsmiths faction. In which we can see imperial/rebel emblems.

Those are both really cool ideas. I like the different color bolts too.

100% agree, look what's happened to Armoursmithing...stop adding stuff and fix whats there. Too many people get blinded by "cool new stuff" to see whats broken.
Having said that, I would like diff coloured bolts.
There is also no craftable CL54 1 handed weapon, and remove the stupid caps on everything. At the end of the day we all want to be more uber than the next guy, we want that 30% damage slice on those +180 krayted whatevers. And we want to cry when we get 12% speed, remember those days? A full day when you couldnt wipe the smile off your face with a sledgehammer, because you got a 29% on something that was already awesome.
We want to make stuff thats completely extraordinary, we want to put in the best of everything and take that chance that we can make it a whole lot better with the roll of a dice.
Well it seems that's just me these days..
