So most agree that the 150 token cost for schematics is excessive. Now if they made it so that if you fail a moding you lose the mod not the item then the cost would be worth it. I would be ok with paying that cost and it would keep the risk still high. Do the devs have a reason why we are not allowed to replace mods? They really seem to avoid this for some reason. Why cant they just make this possible. It would make a lot of people happy and increase the usefulness of modding.

Probably because they're going to revamp, or more correctly implement an actual, crafting system. Of course this will come after all of the glorious end game content that was mentioned back in early November (PAUs, Command Opportunities, Flash Points).

So if you do the math, and it's taken them six months to produce nothing at all, they'll have crafting in by 3025. I'm hoping I'll be living in the Federated Suns by then.

cha not to mention why would they want any of us poor saps stuck at 50 to have something constructive to do. :D Besides if they let us replace mods it would make players to uber for the PvE portion of this game and they have enough trouble trying to keep ppl from hitting 50 and leave as it is.

Of course I aggree and it would be nice if they did make it that way cause it would make the game more fun!

Yeah, I'm not too sure I'd be thrilled with the prospect of blank prototype weapons. Not that they wouldn't be nice but just that at this point I've hit the end of my rope farming anything.

And if they did indeed implement that it would just be farming on a scale that far outweighs my time spent on striders.

<------------done with farming. I did that for four months already.
