I was going through one of my first characters and clearing out the junk from his holds and inventory, and found that I had acquired mercenary commendations. Is there anything I can do with them now?

What crew skill(s) can craft different augments?

I ran across a few that are exactly the same from green to pink. The level 49 battle and savant (possibly quick savant come to mind.

where does one locate a schematic for that? also thanks all for the info.

Maybe it's just me, but Artifice seems extremely limited compared to other crew skills. I mean crystals and hilts are nice, but it seems other crew skills can craft much more than Artificers. Please correct me if i'm missing something here.

What's the difference between green modable items and orange modable items?

I may not have explained myself correctly. I'm not interested in the odds of any specific item dropping....just what rare/ super rare items drop from which pack. Also i'm not spending anything beyond my monthly sub.

does anyone know what rare/super rares drop from the specific cartel packs? Is there a link or site that has info on this? thanks!

Is there any difference between blockade runner's cartel packs and crime lord's cartel packs in terms of item drops? If there is can you tell me what the different drops are or post a link to the differences. Thanks.

Can you strip the mods out of columni gear (or other gear for that matter) and put them into other items and still get the set bonuses for having 2 or 4 of the columni equiment?..that stuff looks hideous.
