Is there a species/race best suited for becoming a pilot? Or do all the races have the same inert abilty to pilot spacecraft?

Every species is the same when it come to piloting. There is no bonus, other then your own skill.

IIRC, Sullustans have a faster hyperspace countdown timer.


Otherwise, the only space bonuses out there for anything are the crafting bonuses that Sullustan and Ithorian shipwrights get.

In one of the RoW mission (the one where you deliver the pelts), you wind up fighting a bunch of wookies flying A-Wings. Like a wookie would even fit into an A-Wing.

Just pick the race you think looks cooler. None of the bonuses are really spectacular enough that being a certain race makes you significantly better at any profession. They are nice when you have ones that match up with the profession you do, but hardly enough that you must be this race to do that job well.

I'll confirm that Sullustans get faster hyp calcs - I figure about 50% normal calculation time.

they get a small penalty to natural health, though, so if you want to play the ground game too, go with zabrak, who get a small health bonus in addition to nice racial abilities

As far as i know the only races that get any kind of bonus to Weaponsmithing are Rodians and Mon Cal. They both enjoy a +10 to Weapon Assembly . The only thing that does if i remember correctly is improve your overall chances of coming out sucessful on a "build". As far as I know there is no one class that outshines all others in Weaponsmith. Human Artisans on the other hand, they get the +15 experimentation (Artisan only, not applicable towards Weaponsmith) and have a slight edge on all the other Artisans.


If anyone knows any different please feel free to correct me.

I would say human if you plan on making your own powerups, if not, pick anything. You can pick up +10 assembly for cheap.

WOOOKIEs!


We get to make bowcasters because only our nimble fingers can get in those tight spaces on these guns. The assault ones are pretty nice too might I add.
