Pistol Barrels then Pistol Rifle Barrels. The munitions way requires way to many resources that you won't be able to get hold of.


Also, feel free to complain if you get Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Why are you going to be a Weaponsmith? Holocron? If so, buy the resources, grind away and then go on to your next thing.


If you really want to be PROFESSIONAL Weaponsmith then you need to take your time, learn the trade and accumulate the resources that you'll need to make competitive weapons. If you do not do this, you'll be a Master Weaponsmith that either makes lousy weapons or can't make certain weapons at all due to resource inadequacies. Good luck.

Munistions good


get thronium steel, hydron-3 gas, and scevcon reactive gas, some radioactive a bunch of comon metal


make heavy warheads


heavy warheads exelent


it might cost you a few bux but its hela fast( i estimate something around 5-40 mil dependind on server)


Hydron-3 will be a pain. since no practical scemetic uses it. people who know about this trick will overcharge for it big time. unless its ative during your grind.

If you have the patience to wait on the resources, the friends with the med and heavy harvesters, or alot of cash and a good resource vendor. Munitions are the way to go to grind through WS. You can grind barrels up to munitions 1(although I did metal staves.) Then you grind med warhead mechs to munitions 2. Then grind heavy warhead mechs the rest of the way. I wasn't in that big of a hurry, so I got enough resources to do the grind from munitions 1 to laster. Then ground slowly, waiting on the hydron3 to drop. When it did, got alot of it and made the rest of the grind in 4 hours.

Old posts keep getting bumped somehow =D.



Anyways to sum up my justification for my post made roughly3 months ago......



On Sunrunner, Hydron-3 inert gas last spawned approximately 4 months ago. So my primary reason for discouraging this method, as nice as it may be. Is that for every 1 person who manages to get the resources required on their server to go this route. There are 10 people out there spamming trade boards, city starports, and their local weaponsmiths looking for these 3 specific resources, which most weaponsmiths, with good reason, never mine.



However now that the method is out there, whenever these resources do spawn, resource miners mine it up. To resale later at avery high rate to those that will pay to avoid the inevitible steel grind.
