khsolo Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 So i could spend 10 mil or more buying 6 or 7 Black Hole implants and try to RE to get the schematic or loose all the 10 mil if im not lucky Is that the Bioware way? Really? Have any idea how long it takes to make 10 mil selling 20 k purple implants, columi implants and exotech stims? Teh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakuBenjami Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 If it was guaranteed then everyone would have them. Also, you are an idiot if you buy (at current 1m+ prices) what you want to re- from the GTN. If you want to re, it be best if you are from your EC farm drop.

Exotech stims were a rare drop, now you can buy the schematics for bh comendations, same should be for the implants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbayer Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 The 20% is the only thing that gives a crafted item any value. Why don't you just equip them instead of trying to RE them at all and be done with it? If you want to RE them to sell them then your whole argument doesn't make any sense because they would be worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyryu Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 The mats to make them are crazy priced anyway. Not sure what point there is in RE'ing the gear for schematics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khevar Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 If it is possible to RE black hole implants bought at the vendor (never tried so I'm not sure), you could get 131 black hole comms in one week and buy 3-4 of them for crafting purposes.

STARWOLFSWE Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 You cant RE already crafted implants that are sold in GTN, only the once that drops or the once you buy for 35 BH comms. And why would ppl Buy a Implant for millions when they can do a HM FP every day for a week, get 35 BH comms and get it for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elyssandra Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 ^ What people said I am not certain but I don't believe you can RE player crafted items. You definitely can RE BH implants bought from the vendor. I have a BH implant schematic - I was lucky because I had it really early and managed to sell a crafted one at 1.5 mill. However you need 6 level 8 crafting mats - the cost of which can range from 750K to 1.2 mill depending on GTN prices. Also since they only cost 35 BH comms and since the introduction of the group finder a player could quite easily get enough comms to buy the implants themselves - you are unlikely to be able to sell the crafted BH implant for a reasonable price - especially if you have to buy the mats. It may make sense if you farm space missions as the lvl 8 crafting mats drop from those mat boxes. It may also make sense if you get the mats out of EC. However, in my guild we put all the mats in the guild bank for use only for crafting for guildmates/ ourselves and not for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only ones that you can RE at this time are BoP. So if you bought them off the GTN you have a 0% chance of REing them - and yes, this is intended, not a bug.

Didnt know that but no i didnt buy them Just want to know how to get the schematics for them without having to spend hours + hours getting bh coms to buy them and re them over and over until i get lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty, some of us dont have countless hours to get the bh comms to do so unfortunatelly and as far as i know they arent tradeable so either you dedicate weeks to get the bh coms to get the implants to get a 20% chance to get the schematic or you are basically unable to get them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An implant costs 35 BH comms. You can get that done in 5 days without even stepping foot in Denova. A HM flashpoint should take about 30 minutes and a SM op a little over an hour. If you do a full run of Denova, that gives you 30 right there including the weekly. BH comms are not difficult to get.

Exactly 5 days for a 20% chance, if you dont get it there then its 5 more days and so on and those days i cant do anything else cause my time to play is limited unlike what it seems many people here who devote themselves to the game and obviously getting 35 coms is just a walk in the park For me getting 35 coms is painfullly slow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me getting 35 coms is painfullly slow Eh but if all you said is true - what will you do once you get the schematic? Say it was to mysteriously appear in your schematic list... If getting 35 comms is painfully slow - what will you think of obtaining the mats? You wouldn't have the mats to craft it with if you a) don't raid EC b) do countless space missions. Sounds like you don't have the time for either. I stopped crafting the BH implant because the cost of the mats was so high it made more sense for me to sell what mats I had than to try to craft implants that are considered easy to obtain. /scratch head - not sure what your gripe is really...

Khevar Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) ^^^^^ 100% true. If you can run Denova, you can get plenty of BH comms. If you can't run Denova your only source of Grade 8 mats is grinding every single space missions every single day. Doesn't seem worth it to me. And BH Impants aren't so rare that you can charge an arm and leg for it either. Edited August 25, 2012 by Khevar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
