There are some heavy weapons I never see for sale and I haven't tried making any of them yet. Are those broken, missing certifications or what? ExampleLightning Beam Cannon, Acids stream launcher, Haevay particle beam

I sell quite a few of these. Most of the Heavy weapons have a limited number of uses so the cost vs. perceived reward is low. That being said, smart PVP'ers buy them to take out AT-ST's etc. I've sliced particle cannons to over 4400 damage before making it a truly awesome weapon. Same goes for the others as well....

hi Maya,


LOL, that message had so many spelling errors that I almost beat Beer :-).


Ah, so those are limited use weapons. This is actually good news for me. Limited use, combined with highdamage means good choice for a non-master (btw,see my sig, I am getting closer)


But I am pretty sure I hae seen that one of those heavy weapons have a broken certification. But that might be have been fixed a long time ago.

I think you are thinking of the Beam Rifle There is no Cert for it.

I make them they just dont sell. Most commandos arnt willing to pay the high ticket prices for these weapons. I see them on vendors for like 20k+ for a 30 shot weapon. Thats almost 750 per shot. Who is going to pay that? I sell them as special bulk orders. Thats the only way i make money on them. There is a limited marrket for these weapons so thats why you dont see to many people buying them ( along with the high prices i have seen)

Tac,


Have been selling grenades but IMO, C22 sell a lot better than Glop or Cryo. Just started to make Protons so I am not sure how they will sell (however, there is a market from other weaponsmith who want to make rocket launchers).


How do you price your grenades?

Beam Rifle = no certification. Broken. And as of yet, not a heavy weapon, its a RIFLE (gives rifle xp when you kill with it).


Acid Stream Launcher (charged heavy weapon): Most commandos just keep one of these in inventory. The damage is pathetic and its a point blank range weapon. So its dumb to even buy it.


Heavy Particle Beam Cannon: Best selling heavy weapon. If you not selling these its because the stats suck or you asking for too high a price. On Bria the HPBC's must be in the low 2000's for min damage and around mid 3000's max damage, price around 7k to 10k. Those that people sell above 10k usually dont get bought off the vendors.


Rocket Launchers. If you make them, and make them ofdecent or good stats,you deserve a medal and the 50k you ask for them. You fill your vendor with them and they will be GONE before the day is over.Guaranteed.


Heavy Lightning Cannon: Its a light version of the HPBC. Nobody buys it because its better to buy an HPBC.



So you should just make HPBC's and Rocket Launchers. The rest are useless crap.


Grenades: Protons, Thermals, Cryobans, Glopsare the best sellers.
