I leveled up Armstech to 400. I was around level 200 when I realized that there was no point, but it was too late and I decided that there was no going back.

ALL barrels, blasters, snipers, etc. can easily be attained else-where. For a small price of 10-14 commendations, you can buy a better/just-as-good item. And I really don't see how they can re-do the system any time soon... Seems like a fail to me.

But hey other than that, I have no complaints and I'm loving the game.

Except that Armormech will allow you to craft Orange Armor.

Visual customization is where the money is to be made with Armormech and Synthweaving.

Work towards getting those iconic armor pieces and people with buy them and fit them with the easily acquired mods at level 50.
