The Mess Hall – Hand Me The Hydrospanner
Welcome to the Mess Hall, where every other week we will lay bare a new topic to be discussed on the upcoming episode of Combat Chatter. This is the Mess Hall, so eat up, get loud and say what you have to say! There are no ranks here…
Crafting is an integral part of nearly every RPG these days, whether you slapped the letters “MMO” on the front of that or not. Trade skills allow a player to shape certain aspects of gameplay beyond the core for their character class and species, enabling them to fine-tune the way they approach the game.
In Star Wars: The Old Republic BioWare has enabled several refinements to a system that is very similar to players from games like World of Warcraft and RIFT. Though players are greeted with a familiar UI when they begin crafting, the evolution of the crafting system in TOR goes beyond those limits with the Crew Skill system. With TOR’s launch still being clearly visible in the rearview mirror, many players are already min-maxing on which Crew Skills give them the most bang-for-the-credit, while others are steadfastly sticking with the Crew Skill that they chose first.
What we’re wondering over here at RepublicTrooper is what Crew Skill have YOU focused on since the launch of the game. Did you pick one and remain steadfast and loyal? Or did you fall to the Dark Side of the crafting, giving in to the promises of “quicker, easier, more seductive” that Biochem whispered into the ears of so many players early on? Let us know below!

While we may be Troopers here…we still love our Jedi brothers-in-arms and they are of course welcome in our polls
