Tried to get a full damage on an advanced weapon scop and ended up goign through 1.5k of wood. Yes, it takes 28 wood per time, so its an awful lot.


I tried using bespin, I have a +15.0 crafting tool and a +46 crafting station.


I even tried using a droid, and it still will not go to full damage.


Does anyone else have this problem?

I assume you're talking about adv stocks, not scopes.


They're broken.


Correspondents have been reporting this for quite a while and they still haven't fixed it.


Until they fix it, the best method is to do 6 points into damage, then as many points per attempt as possible until it's maxed, but even then it takes forever to get a 40/40 damage one.

Gah, I said scope in my frustration, yes I meant stock, and thanks very much for the quick and most helpful reply.

Well Im taking it that us 10 pointers don't stand a chance of getting the full damage on them then... great.


And by the way, I thought you might like to know what the CSR said to me when I complained about the 'bug':


"It is most likely that you will need to be near a specialised crafting station with a specialised crafting tool in order to make the stock to its full potential."


Is it just me or do they take everyone with a genuine problem as a fool?

You can get it with 10, I remember making them with 12 and having a couple left over after finishing damage.


I don't think most CSRs know anything about the game, they're just reading off form-letter responses on things they don't understand, like those poorly trained ISP phone techs who make me do all this useless crap before transferring me to someone higher up so I can complain about theirnetwork crapping out and giving me 800 ping and 25% packetloss.
