Everyone knows you farm mods and then forget about them. Let them marinate in your inventory. The longer they marinate the juicier the mod when you come back in 3 months and slice it. Proven strategy I swear.

Worth mentioning that mods without speed can be kept and used on characters that have ships as long as the character themselves have no use because it boosts the ships. For example I almost never use PLO Koon however his ship is used in almost every ship battle as a reinforcement so I just out junk 5 dot mods on him for the ship buffs

One thing I would add is have a decent Jedi and Scoundrel team early on (there are a ton of early game options), you'll basically never need to farm health mods again between Smugglers run and the Seperatist assault battle. If I recall rightly one of the cargo ship regular events (may as well farm the ships with the Scoundrels) also drops a ton of slicing materials

Excellent vid one other thing to keep an eye on when buying is Offense % and the Triangle/Cross primary when buying. A video that would probably help a lot of people is how and when to slice. I set up rules to when a mod gets sliced, placed or trashed, and that decision matrix in the grind makes a lot of difference. Keep up the good work brother!

Having rules is one of the most important things for mods, however it also changes wildly on account level. Maybe we can put something together for principles?

Awesome as always! Watched several mod videos as I’ve only been playing for 5 months. I would love a video on how you break down each tier of mods, what you keep, and why. IE, video I watch had blue mods 2 hits spd at 10 or 3 hits and 13 you slice, sell rest. I liked the def/acc arrow sell, and understand. What about crit avoid? Several videos I watched said auto arrow sells too. So hard to get good mods and know what is what when starting out!

With so many "which can't be resisted" in kits now, tenacity mods make less and less sense. I have a couple toons that are super high tenacity (wampa, Nest, Hoda, etc) and basically I either go all-out on tenacity or I don't bother. I farm tenacity sets basically never now and only a tenacity primary here and there on other sets ( my faves being defense and speed). I'm partial to defense sets overall.

So the triangle is a bit tricky and the reason why is that even characters who benefit more from offense like lobster can just have a good offense secondary. You really only want to ditch the CD if the character can't actually crit on their main hits. Like dark or Maul
