otterscrubber Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Where does one find the purple hilt schematics? These seem to be some of the few things with value. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

otterscrubber Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Anything in particular I should be reverse engineering that would yield a purple schematic? Please feel free to be detailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassedOut Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Make green hilts RE them until you get new schematic Make blue hilts RE them until you get a new schematic Make Purple hilts Boom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterscrubber Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Ah, thank you for spelling it out for me. I see what the first guy was trying to say now. Much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoyProtocol Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) To sum it up - to get better quality items, you craft item X and reverse-engineer it. Green items will progress to Blue then Purple Blue items will progress to Purple and Purple (Superior) Orange items will not progress Customization items (Hilts, Barrels, Mods etc) have a linear progression - a Keen Mod will remain a Keen Mod. Wearable items are not linear, as they pick up prefixes which appear to be random as they level up. From what I gather, you could easily end up with an Accuracy/Critical purple from a Defense/Presence item.

Wearable items are not linear, as they pick up prefixes which appear to be random as they level up. From what I gather, you could easily end up with an Accuracy/Critical purple from a Defense/Presence item. Pretty accurate, couple extra details regarding blue schematics: There are schematics you will find (check the GTN) that start at blue quality. These never have a green quality step. They progress (as mentioned above) from Blue --> Purple --> (Deep) Purple. They RE in a non-linear progression (the same progression as the other non-mod items). Initially you can get 3 different versions from your RE attempts. They grant the prefixes: Critical, Overkill, and Redoubt.. adding +critical , +power, and +defense respectively to your new schematic. When you craft and then RE one of those items you will have a chance to get 1 of 5 possible upgrades from there: +accuracy, +shielding, +surge, +presence, & +alacrity. Giving a total of 15 possible final outcomes from each schematic that does a non-linear progression. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
