it would be nice if the spare crates, chain igniter coils and Galvanic oscillators were account bound. I got a ton of them on my hunter...I wouldve had my rank 2 and 3 on my alt by now with the amount of parts I got.
I'd agree there should be more ways to farm spare parts. I think the more effective way is to hop on/create a Spare Part Farm WM group at the Junkwatt depot, preferably with the Anodized (upgraded) mobs, which give more parts than the Corroded ones. To get even more parts here's my advice: DO NOT SELL the Tempered PlatingMachined Gear AssemblyHardened Spring, instead use them to create Bundle of Recyclable Parts to turn in to the machines around the area. After the first of the day, you can do repeatable turn ins on these, to get Common/Purple Boxes of parts, containing around 15-200 parts, EACH (mostly around 40-100), and you can even farm other stuff for the zone's achievements (like paint vials, melody discs for music machine, etc).Managed to farm around 5k spare parts a while back around 30-60 minutes, and with the stuff above, got lots of boxes, some purple ones too, with 2k more parts.Was hoping that the rank 3 of the purification protocol would require less materials, as I was farming the 20 boxes for the rank 2, and was shocked (didn't dig enough info about essences are most ranks take too much time for even 1 toon, and I have 14 lvl 120 right now, of which I don't play regulary, but don't leave them take too much dust either)...
Other recipes that were changed include:
U can use then to get trhe achiv of creating 1000 item at the robot.
What about rep account bound so I don't need to farm rep on all my chars to get mechagon and najatar essences...
