Greetings fellow smithys,
As a general information gathering initiative, I would appreciate if those of you who are master weaponsmiths would answer the following questions. Thanks in advance.
1) How long have you been a master weaponsmith?
2) In number of units, approximately how many weaponcrafting-related resources do you have in your stockpile?
3) If you have a harvester fleet (including your own lots, borrowed lots of friends/guild members, and any alternate character's you may have), what does it consist of? Please specify number of harvesters, type of harvester (personal, medium, heavy), and resource type (mineral, chemical, etc...)
4) How many factories do you have access to at a given time?
5) How do you acquire power to run your harvesters/factories?
That's all.

#1 Close to three months

#3 Right now, 30. In a month, close to 800. Mostly heavy mineral harvesters but I do have some gas and chem too.
#4 4, soon to be six. Five equipment and one clothing.
#5 My heavy min harvesters collect radioactive.

Had Master Weaponsmith for 2 months, played for 4 months.
Have 72 WS resource items, 36 components items (mostly crates), 27 enhancements items, a dozen hits/repair tools etc., .... obviously .... in my house since inventory is not that large .....
I have nearly filled a medium naboo ..... and there is no furniture or anything else not directly practical in some way .... this is unreasonable ..... back packs should count as one item in a house .... regardless of the contents .... at least for crafters if not everyone ...
Harvesters that I use:
six heavy mineral, 4 medium chemical, 1 medium gas, 2 medium florals
I have but do not use personal level harvs that I make and destroy as needed ....
Energy that I have:
one solar, four wind, one nuclear fusion
The unusual number of heavies and mediums for a four month level player is the happy result of Holo sales, without which I would not have the big harvs .... or be producing weapons at this point very likely ....

1) How long have you been a master weaponsmith?
It'll be 8 months come March 7th or 8th
2) In number of units, approximately how many weaponcrafting-related resources do you have in your stockpile?
I'll say at least 6 million.
3) If you have a harvester fleet (including your own lots, borrowed lots of friends/guild members, and any alternate character's you may have), what does it consist of? Please specify number of harvesters, type of harvester (personal, medium, heavy), and resource type (mineral, chemical, etc...)
4 personal (I havent harvested my own stuff in a long time, havent had time to go out and place)
2 IRL friends who have 6 lots available each for me
otherwise I buy the rest from dealers.
4) How many factories do you have access to at a given time?
10 (8 of which are mine.)
5) How do you acquire power to run your harvesters/factories?
Person in town sells it to me for .5c/u (not .5per power unit but actually .5c/u) I have enough power to last me a LONG time.

1. 7 months
2. 12 million (guesstimate)
3. 15 usable Harvestor lots of my own (2 accounts), access to more through friends/partners as needed. Fleet of 15Heavy Mineral, 5 Heavy Gas, 6 Heavy Chems, and 4 Heavy Fusion harvestors. All BER13 (14 for fusions). I have more harvs than lots to put them on simultaneously. But I can drop hard and heavy on any good resource spawn that's needed. (Mineral, Gas, Chem, etc.)
4. 5, with access to more if I really needed it.
5. Usually run 2-3 Heavy Fusions as needed. When not pulling needed resources, will stockpile energy for future use.
I find that anymore I just watch the resource spawns looking for things that improve on my existing resource pile, or can replenish dwindling stocks of a needed resource.

I'll respond when I can get my sorry working butt home, do my weekly inventory and see just how many resources I have!

1) About 7 months
2) 3-5 million
3) 5 heavy mineral, heavy gas, heavy chem (all 13s). If something critical
comes out guild members will help pull.
4) 3
5) Had a big fusion that I gave to a guild member. He gives me my power for free
and sells the rest.

1/ Not long at all, been master for about 2 weeks
2/ I spent alot of money my first week buying resources and weapon experimentation tapes. I have around 4 mil units of weaponsmith resources, and spent around 20 milion credits getting that stuff (I am not particularly patient).
3/ I have access to 14 lots right now, which are permanently in use. I own 14 Heavy Minerals, 14 Heavy Chems, 1 Heavy Gas, 1 Fusion.
4/ 2 Equipment Factorys - At the moment these are constantly in use, making either weapons, power-ups, or BH droids
5/ I have 1 fusion constantly mining, which is enough to supply power to my harvesters and factories. Occasionally I buy some power from my guild's power mafia, if my fusion doesnt quite mine enough.

1) 4 months
2) Between 3 and 5 million units. Don't count any more. But I do actively purge and only keep the best of what I need in each category and only about a 1 year supply at my burn rate. No cruft here.
3) 12 BER 10 mineral harvesters all my own (2 accounts). I buy from people for materials I only need small quantities of or when multiple good spawns occur. Also have 5 gas and 2 chem that I swap in on rare occasions.
4) I run 2 factories all the time and give up fusion or harvester space to get up to 4 in crunch times.
5) I run 2 fusion plants for power.
6) (unstated question) I run 2 shops, so I have two locations to stock. I don't have any secondary distributors right now.
Best of luck,
Teev.
