When I got my first 80, I found myself taking a bit of a different route. I started the same, buying the full set of 324 conquest comm gear, but I didn't have any OP-1's for the rakata ear piece So instead, I used my excess comms to upgrade my ear to 340, then ran a couple of Vet FPs to use the same upgrade trick to get a 340 blue. This in turn got me the blue 340 mods for upgrading the rest of my non-accessory gear. I know that it wasn't as strong as the mix of blue and purple mods, but having been able to earn comms before hitting 80, it meant that I was able to get a full 340 set within a few hours of the level up. Now, I don't know which is faster as far as reaching a full 344 Rakata set, or which is the best route for gearing alts, but it seemed like a viable alternative for players that are starting without any OP-1s
I used to suggest that route as well to people! Upgrade the conquest gear and just kill stuff until you get a replacement at that item rating. That's a pretty good route for non-subscribers. The real advantage of the route I've laid out in this video is the collection of massive amounts of tech frags at the same time to upgrade your legendary implants while farming your gear.
looks like hyde quest was created to make credits sink from economy to decrease inflation. looking how cheap goldsellers in chat sell credits and on all those millions in gtn isnt the best feeling
It's insane how out of control the economy used to be compared to how it is now. It got so bad that individual cartel packs were selling for close to 400 million credits each...
Yes, this specific way of getting gear is locked behind a subscription. You would want to check out the other options in my gearing video for 7.2 to see how you can gear up without being a subscriber. You can also check some other comments on this video for a method to gear up efficiently as a non-subscriber.
omg look whos back
started in 7.2 using his gearing guide and dropped the game a few months into 8.0, I might use his 9.0 guide in the future hahaha
I'd love to say I'm back, but I know I won't be making or uploading many videos in the next few months.
I didn't realize you could buy the sub-324 earpieces that way! That's cool!
Really good to see ya back!!!!
Thanks. I'd love to be back and making videos more often, but still trying to catch up on real life and summer I spend a lot more time outdoors.

@@Draemn More tech frags for that first set of implants certainly sounds like a good investment!!
Great video! Off topic but that's a fabuluous mane of hair.
Always appreciate the compliments on the hair.
Good to hear from you brother!
thats some tricky stuff here. thx
I wish they would make gearing system more complicated
Exactly! Games aren't supposed to be fun, they are supposed to be hard work.
Me, not a subscriber and never reached level 80: "Hmm, yes. Indeed."
Too funny
Amazing guide
Is it possible to get modable gear up to 344 with the Hyde quest or is the max 340 with purple mods?
340 is currently max with Hyde quest

i cant get the 15 op1 with the deconstruktion
are you deconstructing rakta gear? Only rakata deconstructs for 15 op-1
Do you have any info on Rakata gearing no matter what type of content you play?
Rakata gear only drops in operations & the OP-1 currency is very hard (but not impossible) to obtain outside of operations.
Does this work in 7.5?
After i buy the Unidentified Earpiece it says i need artifact equipment authorization. So i need to be a sub to use that?
