Indeed I noticed this last night when I was making myself a new Krayt Scout Blaster. My old one did not convert very well. Made the ABPH, doh, then had to craft a BPH. Nevertheless using it to defend myself while going out to my factories was not effective. Got creamed by a family of Shauputs. BTW, I am CL 10 now. Looks like I will have to find escorts to go out a surveying, maintaining harvs, etc.


Did find something interesting though. When a Mauler apprentice one-shot incaps you repeatedly when you are trying to remove a harvester. Wait until you die. Then you are still able to empty the hopper and reclaim the harvester. Thought that was interesting. Then cloned ran back out there and got the second one from that location. Interesting now wounds or BF though. So one upside.


So I am going to coin the term "Ghost Harvesting". Neat to be able to things while you are dead.

We all knew that there would be different components for different weapons ( regular/advacned). Thats the way it should have been to begin with. Are you that much of a noob not to look at a schematic after a huge patch that changed crafting? And you made a mistake thats your fault, not the games. First thing i did was look at each schematic and write down whats needed and type of resources.


People need to be more aware. This wasnt an attack on anyone here btw, but its common sense to check things over before crafting.



And why would you need 2 of each type of schematic? Make the best one and go with it. You dont need 2 of each. Our main thing now is speed, some in damage, and maybe accuracy/weight/attack cost. But main i think is speed to get good DPS.

I agree with what you said. Just with all the other things making my brain tired, I was running on auto-pilot. I wasn't upset at all in fact I laughed. Original poster seems a bit peeved though.

So I'm making an E11 Carbine for a buddy of mine and he asks me to krayt it, so I make an ABPH and krayt it and open the E11 schematic. The schematic will not accept the ABPH, says its not valid for this slot because the slot calls for a BPH. Is this a bug or is this for real?

Some weapons, lower level, only take Blaster Power Handlers rather than Advanced Blaster Power Handlers.

I haven't looked at that schem specifically, but some do say ABPH's are requiered. I've also noticed that advanced barrels are also required components on some weapons. So it looks as if they are no longer interchangeable.

If it says ABPH itll take both, if it says BPH itll only take basic.

Well gang, this looks like the last straw for me, gonna wrap up shop and prepare to head off to another game. I have enough trouble keeping one type of stocks, scopes, handlers, barrels, etc in stock, let alone having to stock 2 of each. Thanks for the assiatnce and good luck out there.
