Weaponsmith Archive

im going for m weaponsmith and heard certain guns require m artisan items. how much do these cost to buy in bulk, do they have to be good quality, and how many weaponsmiths are m artsans and reccomend it?

It all depends on it you want the skill pts or not.

I wanted to go Master Pistoleer as well as Master Weaponsmith. So, I sacrificed my Master Artisan status and all of Domestic Arts.

I figured, if I could find a master artisan to make powerups and control units for me, then I don't need to have it. As it happens.....I did find a master artisan willing to do this for me, and so everything is great.

You only need the control unit for the SG82 and Spraystick rifles as far as I am aware, unless something else has slipped my mind.

...and dont forget you need (or should need) a master artisan for all those weapons powerups that I'm sure you want to sell..right D'Tox ??

A master Artisan's crafting XP points can make some pretty mean ones

And with repair tools now working, Having the experimentation points is VERY helpful! But aside from that, no.. no real need.

If you're human you don't need eng/dom4 - I have eng 4 and dom 3, and that plus the human artisan experimentation bonus is enough for me to max out the effectiveness on repair kits.

The master artisan items aren't all that useful, the stuff that requires control units is mostly crap that no one wants, and the control units in spraysticks are optional (and have absolutely no effect, so there is no point in using them).

Yeah I'm a lousy hummie artisan/master weapon smitty, I have eng 4 (duh), dom arts 4, bus 3, and survey 4, no point to go master, I can pick up control thingies from other master artisans for dirt cheap, i can build my own powerups, nice..., and good repair tool kits, also nice, no real point however, If only the Devs gave us general assembly/effectiveness, but no........ they gotta be mean like that, marksman gets general ranged aiming, why don't we get general assembly/effectiveness? is it so unfair?

The above poster is right very few weapons need the Master Artisan skill, Droid Crafting however it’s a vital skill.

I find offering a free Nemodian Bird Cage with every weapon sale
really helps to move product.
