Hello people. Today i saw a "Weapon Upgrade Kit". Mr. Qui-Gon, Sir, I was wondering? What are Weapon Upgrade kits?

Seriously though, how do these figure into play? Any answers would be appreciated.

Weapon upgrade kits are craftable by a weaponsmith and are required for the slicing of weapons by a smuggler.

Couple questions on Weapon Upgrade Kits:

What do most weaponsmiths usually charge for one? How much do yo uusually charge for a crate (and how many are in a crate)?

Thanks...

ME personally...

I sell them for 3x the amount of resources it takes... which is 30 per (20 metal 10 chemical)... making it 90 credits per WUP(weapon upgrade kit).

For a crate that makes it 2250 + a factory running cost of 250.... so I would sell it for 2500.

On my personal Vendor in my house... I sell the crates for 2250 as a discount for making the run to my house.

So 25 in a crate... Okay that works, thanks. I was making these for some smugglers last night by hand, and one of them was under the impression that someone was making and selling crates of these kits for 500c per crate. I flat out told him that's nuts, especially if there are 20 or so per crate, and that I couldn't possibly sell them that cheaply. Now granted I'm not using 900+ materials, but I have to at least cover costs of extracting the resources.

Anyway, thanks for the answer, hopefully I can make some more skill tonight. I got my first box of WS last night due to the massive amounts of upgrade kits I was churning out (like 300 total, over about 5 hours).

I haven't exactly been advertising them much, but I've been selling crates for 4-5K. Just sold 5 crates at 4K each to a smuggler yesterday...

I haven't checked, and of course I will tonight when I get home, but do you get WXP for making these?

Oddly enough, yes.

They require Novice Weaponsmith, and grant Weapon Crafting XP, but use your Artisan Experimentation and Artisan Assembly mods.

There are almost always, at the least, 20 to 30 *factory crates* of these things on the StarSider Bazaar. I don't know about your server, but you should check...
