Just to build on what Steve wrote, if you get individual item modifications from a command crate, like a hilt, or an enhancement, those CANNOT be reverse engineered. * I want to say that you can get them dropping from slaughtered foes, but I am plagued with doubt about it, and it's very rare in any event. * The GTN for schematics that aren't Bind-on-Pickup or Binds-to-Legacy. * Command crates drop schematics for MK-4 / MK-14 versions of the Command Crate gear, but beware: it's Endurance-heavy and fixed-stats, and therefore mostly not for Artifice. Reputation vendors usually have a variation of below their name. * Various reputation vendors - if you want to make Black/Deep Red dye modules, for example, you have to get enough Oricon reputation and buy the schematic from the vendor on Oricon. I don't have an up to date list of what they can yield, but I do know they can drop some old-style empty-shell orange armour styles. I know of the following sources of schematics: Third, can I get schematics by reverse engineering items I find on enemies or in quest rewards, like the armor pieces I get from crates after completing a heroic mission? Is there a chance I'll learn to craft this 'Fractured Bulwark's Lightsaber Mk-3' for instance, or will it only give me crafting resources if I break it down?ДЇinally, outside of crafting/REing altogether, where do I get new schematics (mainly for Artifice and Synthweaving, if that matters) now? In 500 levels worth of treasure hunting, I think my companions came back with two schematics for the same orange dualsaber, but is that it? I'm not trying to get a ton of them, I'm just wondering where I should keep an eye out as I level up and try new systems/game modes, because I don't want to miss something entirely thanks to unlucky RNG. Does this basically make them non-upgradable? Second, can I reverse engineer improvements on the purple items on my crafting list, or are those as good as it gets for their particular schematics? Most of the schematics I can learn from the trainer are blue, but around the level 50-60 items they start to turn purple. I've got a few questions about this - and schematics in general - if anyone with a current understanding of crafting/gearing would be willing to help me out.ДЇirst, can I get improved schematics through reverse engineering for every item I craft, or only certain items/categories? I imagine I can't get 'improved' dyes, for instance, but what about color crystals, lightsabers, relics, wieldables, and whatever these stronghold/conquest items are? I remember crafting and reverse engineering a hilt until I got a better schematic (up to purple I think?), and near as I can tell, this is still how it works, though I haven't tested it at all. It's easy to find guides about any given one of them, but they're almost always years old. I'm a returning player trying to catch up with changes and remember half the things I forgot about this game, and it's hard to find up-to-date info on a lot of SWTOR's systems.
