ok, i am a newer WS as i have posted before, and i have started to gather resources and want to start buying the "best-ever" resources, but had a thought?
will resources and loot be different for our old weapons? or stats? i just wanna know before i go and spend tons of money and stuff, or so i can use up my old loot or keep it?

Nobody knows as we've yet to be able to see the schematics.
My gut feeling though, is that the vast majority, if not all, of old schematics will remain the same. As far as the new stuff, I'd expect to see at least a couple previously unused resources show up, but I have no idea what they'd be.
We'll know better in a few days once we've gotten to take a look at schematics.

Hehe, who knows maybe even the old weapons will use different resources now.

I suspect since some of the promos talked about new resources and what sounded like space mining that some of the new weapons will require some special resources. I'm guessing the Massassi ones would definitely be different.

Call me a cycnic, but as RotW is an "optional" add on, I would expect resources from space mining and Kashyyk to be required for a lot of (or all) the new crafted items, just as to compete in ground or space combat you will need robot arms (!) or a Ep3 space ship to even have a chance, ie buy the expansion or lose out in all areas of the game.
Don't quote me, but I think Kashyyyk and asteroids will be dropping some of the best resources ever seen in this game across all servers within a week of launch of RotW... if I was running SOE's business dept, it's what I'd do!

Well...I'm assuming you posted this cause you wanted some advice....well here's mine:
If you have a pool of money that you plan on using to "invest" into your resource pool....save your money. Keep a close eye on TC5 and as soon as solid information comes out regarding the "new" crafting process, then you can make a wise (informed) decision with how to bank roll your business.
1. Who knows what resources will be used on these new weapons? My guess is that they will utilize some "brand new resources" which will not appear until the upgrade hits. You might want to save some dough for that stuff......or harvest it yourself...then after a while, buy the good stuff that spawns on yoru server.
2. Additionally, you will have a better idea on which weapons will take what resources (andtheir corresponding relevantstats) after TC5 provides you with that info.
