Thank you? Since 2008 I have been waiting for the forums to be readable on a mobile device. Finally they are :-) and zooming even works!

At the moment there are no trainer trained schems as you figured out. But there are, I think, 3 schematics with willpower that are looted. Check the GTN under Crafting Schematics -> Artifice

There should also be a looted mission or two that yields them Try and look on the GTN for Missions of skill 160-180ish. These should give purple tier 3 mats. Diplomacy is the one mission skill I don't have so I can't give you a precise number :-(

ahh yes forgot that one

Augments Slots are on Crafted gear where the crafter got a crit. So it is not on the usual orange moddable gear. Look for [Advanced] and [Mastercraft] in names of items on the GTN.

They are one use so no need for such a feature.

Scored the lvl 12 Medium Smuggler belt off of the GTN for 800 creds the other day... I must admit I hi5'd the wife at that time.

Reset the list by relogging. Will drive your guildies insane but so worth it ;-)

Bad luck Been there many times, and many times I've gotten the purple after 4 re's. Just keep trucking you'll get it eventually.

Since it looks like yoi are not afraid to run around and gather, I would swap one for slicing since it is straight up cash from the gathering nodes.

Most schematics "drop" off the GTN for about 2500c for me :-)

Added bonus is that they get to be much much cheaper from missions. The 5c ones are barely worth it, but when you get to the brazing (200c) and thermoplast (400c) there really is alot to save from scavenging missions. A bountiful or rich mission is about 2000c and nets you 20 to 36 or so flux.

Which would also be a bug, since some developer forgot to put a time out on nodes.

And being fixed in the next patch. :-)
