looking for active empire and republic guilds to run master flashpoints and story operations with, all my characters are lvl 70 to 75

Yes, I agree with you that artifice crafters should be able to craft moddable offhands. Especially since as of Rise of the Hutt Cartel/2.0 armtech crafters can do just that.

I would like the developers to add a schematic for craftable and moddable foci, shield and power generators for artifice crafters. These are the three types of gear which have moddable versions available in the game which players cannot craft. Previous to 2.0 i think this was true of all off hand items (with the exception of lightsabers and vibroblades), however with the arrival of 2.0 armstech crafters can now craft moddable vibroknives and shotguns. All I am requesting is that same benefit given to armstech crafters be given to artifice crafters as well.
