Shamelessly stolen from the shipwright profession, what about a similar system for weaponsmiths? I mean, I love getting lootedCDEF carbines that I immediately destroy as much as the next guy, but wouldn't it be nice if looted weapons were actually worth something? If you get a stack of the same kind of lootedweapons, you'll be able to create a new gun using the best values from each of the guns. Seems to me like something that would make WS more interesting- as it is now, every smith knows every others' tricks, and a lot of people are making the same kinds of weapons. Thoughts?

Honestly I'd just like to be able to _craft_ the weapon instead of it being some exclusive loot/reward quest.

mmm..10 looted cdefs into a "recycler" would still produce a cdef

even taking the best stats from each it would still suck heh

There is a Loot Revamp currently in concept. The reverse engineering is an option that will most likely be implemented (seeing as the devs listed it specifically). I actually think they are taking the Loot system down an all too familiar path (been there, done that). I prefer having content controlled by the player, not by the latest expansion.

No thanks. I don't want to be constantly bugged by people wanting me to RE their crappy loot weapons. Imo, SWG needs less loot content and more crafting content. As it is, with the CU and RotWpeople barely need crafters anymore.
