Oooh. So i keep adding boosts, then refresh and add based on advantages etc...? Okok. I’m gonna reroll lightsaber, making defensive saber, so 3 rolls max fr me to keep it to 900 creds.

Then how about the crystal?

I'm leaving it up to our GM to curate the actual dice rolls (he knows that stuff better than I do).

Lightsabre crystal(s) ... yeah, I'm leaving that explanation for our GM too. :D

6 rolls for standard saber. So 600 creds. I guess i’ll use all 3 advantage on crossguard...?

If you haven't spent it already, 20 XP will allow you to add your Force dice to any Mechanics check. Any LS pips can be spent on Successes (you only need one in total) and Advantages (which you can spend on adding Boosts to your next roll).

Oh. Where do i get that talent? I forgot i could add boosts wif the advantages. :0 ahhh. Okok i think i’ll wait for the amount of creds i hv frm @EliasWindrider then i’ll redo my saber rolls and do my armour crafting.

Sery 😕 im rlly bad wif this kinda stuff so i rlly need someone to kind of hand walk me through it :(

It's the Manipulate Force power (the Sentinel sourcebook, Endless Vigil p. 36).

The basic Manipulate power (used to help a vehicle or starship recover System Strain) normally costs 10 XP, but with the mentor discount it costs just 5 XP.

To get the upgrade which allows the user to add his Force dice to Mechanics checks, you have to spend 5 XP on one Control upgrade and then 10 XP on a different Control upgrade (both on the very left side of the Manipulate tree). If you have Oggdude's character creation program, then they are the Control: Item Damage and Control: Mechanics upgrades.

The basic power plus the two upgrades cost a total of 20 XP (when including the mentor discount for the basic power).

Ah ok thanks!

By hand.

As long as the crafted thing has 1 hp, and you're using a talent or the jedi artisan +2 hp fo make the portable plasma shield legal go ahead, no crafting rolls needed

Okay, done. I gave the "armour" +2 Hard Points from the crafting results (representing the Temple artisans' work) and +1 Hard Point from Reverse Engineering "attachment" (representing the 1 Hard Point it should have had from the clothing becoming "Armoured Clothing"). A bit backwards, but the end result is the same and it works easily enough in Oggdude.

I have some future armour plans, including crafting another set of Reinforced Clothing to suit more formal occasions. With that in mind, Mireska will probably put in an order for an extra Armour Insert set and eventually another Portable Plasma Shield (or how easy would the PPS be to switch from one "armour" to another?).

Lightsaber crafting doesn't let you carry over advantages to boosts the way armor does,

Here are lightsaber rules

https://star-wars-rpg-ffg.fandom.com/wiki/Lightsaber_Crafting

And you have to post every single roll in the sequence, not just the final one.

My mistake.

I've been so focused on alchemy, gadget, and armour crafting recently that I mixed those up with the lightsabre crafting.

@Von3679 My apologies! :(

So the first hilt got recycled after the third was made (so half off the first one) Are you including the boost from the mental tools talent? The right tools for the job grant a boost. You don't get to burn a triumph. You roll it or you don't, you don't get to save triumphs or advantages for later.

Oh i didnt include boost frm the right tools... shd i just reroll everything again? XD. Or should i add on? So i soend total 250 creds? What i mean by the triumph is should i keep rolling till i get one or shd aim for just crossguard.

Add the boost. You should on average get a triumph within 6 roles... but dice don't remember when they should get a result. It's random.

: 1eB 1 success

Here is the boost.

The 1 success 3 advantage is the one you give up

Yeah i know. Should i reroll more after the 5 advantage one? That is the latest roll, spent 300 creds so far.

Ukw i’ll roll a few more for the saber. I cant do much wif the remaining 2 advantage anyway.
