Shogun-Ian Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 While I was waiting for and on (4 times lol) the Tattooine balloon I was playing with crafting. I can't currently make anything good but I am between 100-150 in Arch, Under and Synth. There is that much talk of Biochem being the most useful at end game I wondered if I should invest in that. I have obviously wasted time as I am lvl 30 now but I do have 100 000 credits in the bank to start new! Opinions please! I seem to find decent gear as I am going along! Seems a complete waste of time so far, though I don't confess to understand it fully! I am just not sure if Synth will ever give me anything I need. Or i the point to sell to people levelling up? Yet the costs are great all in! Now is the time to change I guess before I get yet further! Anyone else thinking the same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riotus Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 LOL! I am a 30 JK and am considering the exact same thing..... ive got 150 synth/180 arch and synth has really done nothing for me, quest/commendation gear has always been better than what i can craft... and i think about all the benifits to my actual gameplay that biochem would have......

FestivalOfCheese Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Don't be too concerned about the value of a crafting profession while you level. Go to the synthweaving trainer and change the filter to ALL. Then look at the skill level 400 gear. That will give you a better sense for the value of the profession at level 50. I don't know what synthweaving gets at 400. But biochem gets you reusable adrenals, medpacks, and stims that only you can use. This could have a trememdous long term value.

Shogun-Ian Posted December 28, 2011 Author Share Posted December 28, 2011 Thanks all, I do wonder if all will balance though and I'll be throwing away time and resources. But I haven't invested that much time and I seem to be collecting more money than I need to spend. Other than starship upgrades I seem to collect all that I need. I am always the same with all RPG's I don't buy things as you collect them or similar anyway. Then finish the game a multi millionaire lol LOL!

Thats it for me I will use the stuff from Biochem. But then Biochem is to be "nerfed" next they say! Its just a shame to waste the money and points put into it but I literally have never used any of my gear as I find better. I can plough 100k of free money into it to get started I guess. Leave the computer on when I am busy in the house and keep gathering/levelling them. Will you ever sell the stuff you don't need if everyone becomes Biochem people! Which other crew skills will you roll? I was thinking Bioanalysis and diplomacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
