OPS gearing up Suggestions and rumour Squashing

[vladic]

Hey guys having run our first (though unofficial) OPS today during it we made some Gear discoverys and observations, im gonig to share a few now and people can add as they go.

• You done need to have ANY hardmode gear at all to be viable for an OP (this will help obviously but doesnt stop you donig them)
• Replace your relics!!! saw a few people with level 39 and even 19 relics, just nip to GTN and grab a better one for around 20k and ure golden
• In the event you cant use a level 50 relic due to requirements (some level 50 arnt level V light or dark) Gather the datacron Matrix shards and make a Matrix cube as these are excellent stat boosters
• Make a forum post or ask in chat for proffesions as whilst they wont be free most guildies will help provide you with improved equipment or Mods for custom items
• You can right click any portrait ingame and under commands view there schematics for there crafting proffesion
• CUSTOM items WILL be better then PVP items, yes taking the mods out of PVP armour costs a bit, however having that extra Armouring MOD on an orange can get you 30/50% more of your primary stat then a PVP armour will
• Not exactly a gearing tip but some players state they were running short on money and coulnt afford Repairs etc. DO YOUR SPACE JOBS!!! once all are done aside from a nice legacy bonus you can get around 100k, doing missions on Illum also returns a nice profit

Okay if anyone has anything else to offer please go ahead

Heroic missions are repeatable daily aswell so you can gather a few ppl in guild and run the ones on later planets for some decent credits.

Bonus missions usually give some nice Credits to if you havent done those.

I was one of the people complaining about credits but getting it isn't the problem, not spending it is the problem + I just made level 50 and haven't had time to gather credits. PvP gives good return on money aswell but it still doesn't help when I repair for 40k a day, need money to respec at 60k, spending 30k to get the datacrons and 15-25k for each mod on the GTM( only bought 1 because I really needed an augment but still ).

credits haven't been a problem for me at all, maybe since i only have gathering skills and sell stuff. also daily/normal quest tend to give alot of cash.

so everyone might want to save up some credits at-least for the first ops, probably gonna end up wiping a lot the first few times.
