Which crafting skill should I choose? - The Academy

[@SwtoristaFashion]

* Free-to-play and preferred can now hold 1 million credits * Biochem can still make re-useable stims, adrenals and medpacs, but you get the schematics from the trainer and reverse engineering (not Umbara) * Everything else the same for 2021!

I started to do that but then I realized it's your companions crafting not you so really it doesn't matter.

[@Destroymaster100]

@@WilBgames yeah but you can still benefit from it because its for your class.

[@jonathanmirhige2880]

Exactly. My Force users always go Artifice or Synthweaving. As an expression of Force Alchemy. Same with Biochem in a way

[@huntersmith561]

Same here

[@ravenwind1062]

Worth mentioning that Synthweaving and Armormech make armor and armorings. Cybertech creates mods and enhancements. Armstech creates weapons and barrels.

[@RobMax622]

and Artiface creates Lightsabers and Hilts

[@lyonfrnd]

Exactly. I encourage Cybertech for new players because mods and enhancements can go into most of your gear and weapons if they are adaptive. And getting a full set of adaptive is pretty cheap. Bingo, most of your gear just needs some upgrading every X number of levels instead of replacement.

[@ironpheonix5937]

Thanks

[@TangFiend1]

Even as a subscriber, your first toon should just be all gathering. $$$ for your legacy. I started with Bio, Slicing, Scavenging. I was rolling in money by end game.

[@Swtorista]

Cheers you're welcome :)

[@douglasdobson8110]

if you sub, I highly recommend you get the following mix of skills with your different characters (assuming all Jedi or Sith specs). Keep in mind they have to all be on the same server to share items. Start a character, level them to lvl 10. Pick up the green gathering skills bio-analysis scavenging and archeology, you could even do two with those skills, but one will do to start. You'll see why in a moment: Next train two characters in Cybertech with skills slicing, and underworld trading (your first character(s) have the gathering skill scavenging to complete your cybertechs, get one Artifice with slicing and treasure hunting, your gathering characters have the archeology to complete that circle, and train a character in biochem, slicing and diplomacy, your gathering character has the bioanalysis to complete that skill, and lastly get a character in synthweaving with slicing and underworld trading, the gathering character has the archeology to round out that skill. So with your gathering character you want to collect every marked resource, it's not that tedious like you would think, that will give you all the green materials for level one crafting when you do Coruscant or Dromund Kaas. You don't need to harvest slicing resources you only get credits but nothing towards crafting, you have to run missions to get your blue and sometimes purple materials. You need two cybertechs to keep up with the other skills because they make twice as many useable items, grenades, mods, enhancements and earpieces. You can supplement your materials inventory on the Galactic trade network, you won't need any green mats but you might need the blues and purples. With this setup, you will be able to equip all custom armors and weapons and have all blue equipment and if you invest some time and money into the missions, some purple equipment. You have all the bases covered. I equip all my characters as soon as they hit level ten with all blue and purple stuff that I made for them myself, then I proceed to solo the heroic mission on the starting planet, finish that planet's storyline. You can go to the capital planet and solo a couple heroics right off but for soloing the tougher heroics you will need to upgrade your equipment when you level up (I do it when I hit level 18) Once you get this setup going you'll always have blue equips for all your characters from then out (you will probably need some funds so selling some of those equipments can get you the funds you need to buy more materials.

[@Swtorista]

Great advice!!!

[@bluemageproduction6607]

can you make a video showing this???

[@douglasdobson8110]

@@bluemageproduction6607 sadly I have zero experience making videos and I haven't been playing lately, but I get paid on the 1st and I can sub and see where things are at and if this advice is still useful lol

[@assassinsden7478]

One thing I want to add is that, if you don't intend to craft, you can still make some bank by selling mats on the GTN. Some materials go for more, so its important to pay attention to the GTN market. With the server merges, the market will go into chaos for a few days, but once it settles, you'll get a good idea what is worth how much.

[@lkarlsen2587]

Awesome more from The Academy, great video Swtorista! For me Scavenging is my "go to" on new characthers :)

[@Swtorista]

Me too! Love picking up dead droids. Lots of others are saying Slicing is their go-to for the easy credits too :D

[@irca318]

For a gatherer I do one mission skill, slicing and one of the three you have (arch, bio or scav). And I pair the gathering and mission skill for a craft, so I'd just have to drop slicing and they could take a craft and have the two matched to it. I'm doing extra alts after having all the crafts done. For f2p I recommend slicing if you only get one skill. It's free money and you don't even have to sell anything if you don't want to although the slicing mats do sell if you want to.

[@greyjeth]

Thank you for the video. Helped me out when helping my sister pick crew skills alongside my characters that we plan to play together.

[@Swtorista]

Cheers! Have fun together!

[@PreacherwithoutaPulpit]

I used to make a fortune crafting high level barrels with my Armstech, in the end game it was one of my most valuable skills... Oh, Biochem also added a lot to my bank roll and in itself was very useful especially on my tanks for the reusable packs...

[@Straswa]

Great vid Swtorista! Learned alot from this vid. Also it was your referral link that got me 3 crew skill slots on my preferred account, thank you!

[@Swtorista]

+straswa haha, very nice!

[@77ExarKun]

Nice video, thank you. Small addendum for new players: -crafting is a money sink not really worth it generaly -if you're a f2p or preferred, you'll encounter too many paywalls, just pick slicing until you get a sub or some crafting related unlocks on gtn or cartel market to make your life easier -exceptions are biochem (reusables), cyber (grenades), and slicing for money -while leveling, don't plan on crafting your gear (you can, but you level so fast your gear rapidly becomes outdated) -endagme crafting is a lot of work for not the best gear (logical, but had to point this out) -artifice, armormech for fashion, and when they add weapons to the outfit designer, weaponstech -big problem: generaly any old recipe you learnt you will keep in archives, but BW can erase totaly some recipes (biochem reusables have disappeared and came back, for example, crafting droid parts is purely gone cause they're not in game anymore) And a last, more general note for people that don't have a lot of time in game, by the time you have all professions maxed and are crafting the best craftable mods and items, a new crafting tear will appear and you're back to money sink phase.

[@Swtorista]

Good tips, thanks for sharing!

[@MolnarG007]

You can put your gathered materials into the new crafts material inventory (patch 6.0), so they don't take much inventory space. So now you can even have up to 3 gathering skill without fulling your inventory all the time.

[@davidlink3787]

One of the tricks for armstech is to check the GTN for schematics for the old customizable weapons, like custom blaster pistol and elegant blaster pistols.

[@Swtorista]

Good tip! The other schematics are fun to collect, sometimes hard to find though.

[@aar021]

I just subscribed to the game and your channel is a literal Bible. Love the delivery of the content too.

Slicing is nice if you only have one and don't feel like crafting anyway or bothering with the market as much. Just pick up cash.

Cheers. Talking clearly is one of the things I focus on for the videos.

[@project_hollow6627]

Interesting - so if your planning for some end game content then the following is probably best: Biochem - craft medpacks, stims ,adrenals - can use special reusable's of the above (schematics earned from Ambara flashpoint +biochem 600 to craft + use) -complementary skills: Bio-analysis & diplomacy

[@freezingviper4442]

Super late here, but you can as a f2p player you can choose 1 crafting skill on one character, 1 gathering skill on another and 1 more gathering skill on another character and store all the stuff you collect in your legacy bank. That way you can collect resources with 2 characters and craft with the other character. Just a tip for anyone wanting to craft as a f2p player.

Good tip!

[@matthewbusch1484]

[@HikingFeral]

Thanks for this. I went Armormech, scav and UT on my smuggler and couldn't work out if I had made the right decision. Now I know as a non force user I can make things for myself and also sell them.

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

Thing I like about crafting as opposed to other games is that the stuff I make- as long as I keep up in tier- is actually useful and better than what you'd get just questing. I actually want to make the new lightsabers I unlock in artifice and keep leveling that skill as all of them are actually useful even before endgame. When I played WoW, I wound up giving up on my professions as nothing you make has ANY use except for the top tier end-game stuff... Why would I grind for hours making useless crap for a point I may never reach?

[@VesGaming_]

I played WoW too, back in the Burning Crusade days... How the time flies. When it comes to SWTOR, I actually have a problem deciding between Artifice and Synthweaving for my Jedi Guardian... I am not sure, which will be more useful. I kinda like the idea of Artificing - crafting lightsabers, crystals, hilts, but Synthweaving can provide more gear in general + armoring mods with stats I need... Damn, I don't know.

[@YourCrazyDolphin]

@@VesGaming_ I went with Artifice, and personally I think it benefitted me more overall. You're constantly getting new armor, so even if it isn't as good as it COULD be, it is always pretty good. But not everything gives you relics, and crystals are pretty much the only mod every weapon will take (not to mention that they DO buff stats), so I like Artifice more. Though, I haven't actually tried out Synthweaving yet.

[@VesGaming_]

@@YourCrazyDolphin Hmm, you probably have a point here. Ok then, I will go with Artifice. Somehow, it sounds more appealing (and interesting in general) to me too - Jedi, making crystals, his own lightsabers, etc. Not a Jedi, who is a tailor.

[@WeHaveNoTalentSorry]

Slicing?

[@HBHaga]

@@WeHaveNoTalentSorry Yeah, it's the Star Wars version of hacking. The skill can get you a decent amount of free credits and, for end game gear, sliced components become essential for crafting so they sell reasonably well.

I found slicing kind of annoying because it gives those credit boxes that dont stack and you have to open them all after each gathering.

Several of my Toons run 'Slicing' - it is definitely nice to just pick up extra credits along the way.

As a Perferred and as a sub since I always had 1 of every class on a server I did all 4 crafting skills and 2 Gatherers... makes Crafting ALOT easier.. Especially for the crafting skills that group up on one Gathering Item Like Artiface and synthweaving, take crystals, and Armstech, weaponmech, and cybertech all take metal.. so That may be a formula to help you out too... And gor my gatherers, I do one a side where as the 3rd skill depends on what side they are.. Imperial I use Bio cause Dromund Kaas Has SOO many beasts you can grey out that planet Fast, and Republic I take slicing

[@kurtfeierabend1206]

This is probably the biggest difference in my "Preferred" status from my "Subscription" status that I notice. (OK, Travel and Medical Drones too) Although I didn't really use them that much - I miss having all three Crew Skills available. And since I have several Toons, I've spread out my Crew Skilling, so that they compliment each other in the Legacy. Eventually, I will produce anything that I want for any of my Toons.

Your main should be biochem for the reusables. Then your stealth toon should be three gathering skills for ease of mat farming and the remainder should be the ones that can craft your prefered augments.

[@sath2749]

I agree. if you plan on doing progression Operations then Biochem is a must. I recently switched my main imp and pub to bio for the raids. I am not one that crafts, but it is useful to have armormech or synweaving just to make MK-10s for your augments. If you have a lot of toons like some of us who have no life then I suggest only having 1 of each crafter besides bio. take as many gathering skills on all alts. you should never want to have any mission skill more than on 1 toon. I personally have 1 of each crafter where they have the 3 needed skills (craft, gather, and mission) then I have biochem (craft skill only with alternate gathering skills) on the toons I raid the most with, all my other toons have 3 gathering skills and 1 is always slicing.

[@StitchCustoms-sc]

free to play tip : .... 1 char crew skill (ie) armortech and another char crew skill (ie) underworld training ...then using the char with underworld trading send them on constant missions while doing dialogs etc , then store them in your legacy storage and when you switch back to your char with the amortech skill you will have the materials you need to craft ... then apply a little dash of ocd and before you know it both crew skills from each char will be progressing quite fast ......hope that helps anyone out there ........ almost forgot ...it seems when you have items in the legacy storage you dont need to go and get them each time ..... you can craft using the materials in the storage even if they are not in your inventory

Edit: patron provided the ingredients, I wouldn't buy anything expensive for a stranger just like that. But I did have the skill level and IRL time.

Low level beginning players should probably go slicing to help with training costs ext ext. even at max level you can get a fair bit of credits per hours via lvl 500 caches on the higher level planets that helps alot with the early gearing stages of late game.

[@spiderboy43]

Training is free, unless you mean training crew skills, then yeah it helps. Though any easy credits always help.

[@PrayGame]

@@spiderboy43 i mean having credits in general, you can buy gear as well as training alt skills, slicing is imo a must when just starting out in SWTOR, just because of the sheer influx of credits you can get with a minimal time investment. (edit) especially when free to play. its opens up a whole new avenue of content.

[@PrayGame]

i mean last time i felt like i had to farm it was probably close to 300k+ uncontested credits in under an hour in some situations. the pay off is actually worth it, the simple routes on somewhat lower level worlds its just free. like almost no one is there because the dailies are BS and theres nothing to be gained.

It depends what type of augments you want to make: www.reddit.com/r/swtor/comments/77bhji/does_anyone_know_of_any_guides_for_who_can_craft/dokjyu7/

[@dawgzofwar6674]

Swtorista thank you for the swift reply as usual.. I really like that you seem to engage with your community... Always a good thing... I'm looking specifically for the type of augments you would put in your armor your relics and your implants or earpieces Etc

[@dawgzofwar6674]

I've always preferred to Source my questions and Curiosities etcetera to the community rather than Google... The reason being is this really tends to help Foster a greater sense of community Etc within the player base( minus the trolls of course LOL)

[@Swtorista]

I love me some google, but sometimes google can't answer those simple questions without wading through pages of info :) You might like this too, it's a huge guide of guides that I put together by many members of the community www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=947159

I didn't know bio Chem could be so useful

Hey @Swtorista, What is the all-white Armor set shown at 6:41? Specifically the rebreather/facemask she is wearing?

[@Swtorista]

Aunta Pall is the mask! the chest is gav daragon or jori daragon, I forget

[@Swtorista]

** Ajunta Pall

[@GarrickMerriweather]

@@Swtorista Thank You so much for replying

[@mrcthulhu47themad45]

There is a right answer biochem stims adrenals medpac and the reusables (only usable by biochem) theres implants too

[@SgtDaveFPS]

i never saw this special animation @ 10:27 is there a way to get this or is this part of a special weapon or something?

[@wolfman6489]

Woo, thanks!

Hello ! Would you still not recommend Armstech these days ? I thought the idea of my sniper crafting its own rifles was cool, but if the weapons are still not that interesting, i'm probably going to drop the idea and pick another crafting skill. Thanks. Note that i'm quite hooked into the game right now and may end up having all crafting skills on various characters, but the sniper being my first, it might be a better choice for me to start with something useful/profitable right off the bat (Biochem ? Cybertech ? Artifice ?) P.S : i'm subscribed.

[@Swtorista]

The biggest problem is the weapons are not moddable so you must choose a weapon based on stats not what looks cool. So I still don't super recommend it :)

[@Swtorista]

As for what to choose yeah gathering skills are easy money :)

[@laurent1512]

@@Swtorista Thanks ! Here goes Armstech then :) Yes i got from your video that 3 gathering skills are the best way to get credits, but crafting is part of the fun for me. Could you tell me a bit more about the quality of the armors/augments/earpieces that armormech and cybertech make ? Are they worth it, or can you easily get better gear with PVE/instances rewards ? Overall, what crafting skill would you recommend to improve your character stats/efficiency wise while still being able to do a little money by selling ? That's a lot of questions, sorry ^^

Thank you

What goes best with slicing? Is there a best combo with it? A best class?

[@chellywhovian]

Thank you so much :) I might do the armor stuff.
