Critable orange gear undermines intent of removable epic base mods

Except the set bonuses are going to move with the mods...

Or they could have just done an Appearance Tab.... problem solved:X

OPs point is valid. Im afraid I wont see a fix for this though, my faith in such things have been lowered drastically since the launch of this game.


One can hope!

Can you link me to where you read this? I was hoping set bonuses were transferable.

You should be able to reverse engineer your orange gear and learn the schematic to craft on an augment slot.

Just look in the dev tracker. Its what they mean when they say "extractable base mods"

its already a problem with the craftable rakata gear, get your armor crafting skill upp, get rakata gear with augmentslots drop crewskill, start with artificer and in the end, make reusable adrenals as bichem....

and for anyone with the time and patience to do that, well they can get all the little extras for all i care, cause its some work to get them like that.

Honestly I wish all the craftable raid drops were sellable.. but I thought I heard somewhere that they were going to add set bonuses to certain mods so that we could actually have more of a custom look

This is going to be the biggest factor out of everything, if orange gear is ever going be a success, in the way it was originally planned.

You cannot follow the idea of being able to look how you would prefer, using the mass of orange gear available to you in game, if you give a select few augment slots. It destroys the entire idea, and puts us in the current situation of it all being clone wars, because people are all using the same augment slotted orange gear.

-Also, making augments a tier related thing, is still going to destroy it all, by cutting out most the orange gear you receive at lower levels, and especially those you gain from flashpoints. I think the problem is that augment slots are on the armour, and not on the mods.

(This all first occurred to me shortly after making the thread about my excitement of it all, and I made a post about it, but it really did need it's own thread, so thanks for making it.)
