Is this at all desirable? I'm a smuggler, and I got this as loot. I need to know if it's worth trying to sell. I honestly have no idea if it's worth anything.

No, I'm not soliciting offers now, if it's worth anything.

The grenade experimentation skill doesn't even exist anymore (it was moved to weapon experimentation months ago). It's useless, but someone who doesn't know this will probably buy it anyway.



POKEY THE PENGUIN SIG REMOVED BY GARVA BECAUSE "Just because you are crafty enough to get around the technicality of it being a .jpg or .gif does not mean it is not an image, it is not ascii art, it is an image" SO HERE IS MY NEW SIG.
HUGE UGLY SIG

Ah. It figures. That was the only loot I've ever seen that even sounded like it was worth anything. I'll destroy it.

Thanks.

I have a +25 grenade experimentation/ +23 polearm damage skill tape I looted from a Dark Jedi back in the day. Hooray for having useless skill tapes...


In a perfect world a bugged skill tape like this would be replaced with one that gives weapon experimentation, but I'm not holding my breath....




yay!

The thing that kills me is that I looted this last week. Why are they dropping completely obsolete items? I guess it's classified as junk.

*grin* Can you honestly say you're still surprised at the foolishness of a great number of things in this game? Dropping skill enhancing tapes for a skill that no longer exists merely shows oversight.


Froma weaponsmithing point of view, multiple broken components, horribly slow turnover in fixing them, the Republic Blaster fiasco, useless schematics, the DLT20 rifle - these are examples of sheer laziness and/or lack of understanding (with all due respect, of course)

I rezzing this post. Now there's a schematic being given as part of Jabba's quest that give bonuses to grenade experimentation and grenade assembly. Why on earth would new loot have these stats?!?

I have a suspicion that these aren't as worthless as everyone thinks. When I asked the same question about a month and a half ago, I was told that the skill was obsolete and that because it didn't appear in my list of acquired skills, that meant it didn't do anything.


However I also don't have a "pistol accuracy while standing" skill. Yet I have a skill tape for it that makes that skill show up in my skillset, and it does actually apply the modifier in combat, as I took off the clothing that it was socketed in while in combat repeatedly, and saw the number fluctuate.


Can somebody out there with +10 or more to grenade experimentation verify whether or not they do get an extra experimentation point while creating a grenade?
