I am sure this has been posted about a million times already, but I haven't been on the forums in awhile. I have noticed some loot items (such as a stone knife) can have the poison or disease charge on it, much like the infamous night sister lance. Is this a future enhancement that weaponsmiths will be able to place on melee weapons? I think it would be a cool idea, although there may be a million complaints from ranged weapon users saying it gives us melee users an unfair advantage (even though they can run and blast us to pieces hehe.) but thats a subject for another thread lol! I think this would be a great one time thing for melee weaponry. GIve it the enhancement when it is crafted, and when the charges are gone...there gone for good. I was just curious if anyone knew if this was to be a future idea or not? Thanks.

As far as I know, there are no plans to add an item that would give DOT capability to any weapon it was used in. It appears that the DOT is based on the schematic and not on components, and any future craftable DOT weapons will most likely be quest/loot schematics like the three current themepark weapons.

You want poison weapons. Here is where to get those babies. The blueleaf temple on yavin in the treasure chests. They are all lowlevel weapons, but fun to use. Remember poisons scare people. So these are nice terror weapons. Krayt dragons are also known to drop these weapons as do pirates on lok.


No they are not only melee but ranged aswell. I love my poison cdef carbine. I had it sliced and then spray shot people with it nice. To see someone get four stats up on them. At which time I hit my scatter burn, and bleed them.


If you are into poison yes master weaponsmiths can make poison weapons. The glop grenade for instance, but nobody makes them. Increadibly time intensive because you have to get parts from combat medics. Something like ten befs and the poison. So you are paying for both the weaponsmiths profit and the combat medics profit. Along with Extensive factory runs. For all the subcomponents, and even then you might have to pay for a master artisans profit to make some subcomponents.


You will then want to have the grenades sliced and outfitted with attachments. To get every ounce of damage. Ofcoarse you could go with the poor mans poison and invest in scout trapping line. No they are not poison but knocking off a percentage of someones melee defense bares that out.
