Anyone giving thought to how the CU(RB) will impact our profession?

Yes

With the elimination of all but Kinetic and Energy damage types, it seems likely that the desireable weapons will change quite a bit. I have also heard that damage mitigation is a thing of the past, and it sounds like Special Attack Costs will be much more important.

That's not what it says. It just says that Kinetic and Energy will be the base damage type for all weapons, with additional elemental damage on some weapons.

When will we get a peak at some schematics to see the resource requirements?

There is almost always an open beta before things launch. When the NDA drops, information like this will be forthcoming.

Is there any solid info (or just rumors) about the changes to the crafting system?

I'm not even sure what "changes to the crafting system" means, but anyone with solid info on the CU (other than what is in the public docs) is under an NDA. So anyone who tells you, is repeating a rumor.

What weapons are you planning to stock up pre-upgrade?

See above post.

Resource Requirements can change up to the very moment these are put in Live. I wouldn't hoarde anything just because its a resource req this early.

Rumors

Absolutely none, Im worried about my current stock being devalued, not the other way around.
