I'm stuck at the Tier 2, getting the items needed for crafting is just a pain.
Imagine a future where crafting doesn't involve mindless grinding, but actually enhances your items.
Say I have a Phaser Beam Array Mk VI, I could take that to a Tier 2 crafter and they would upgrade that item to an uncommon with a random buff (Acc, CritD, CritH, ect). They would do this for data samples. That way ANY item could be upgraded. I could then go and upgrade that item again(maybe to rare, or another buff), but it would require more samples and maybe some credits, with a chance that the upgrade would fail, and you might lose the item.
Think Torchlight's wizard, who can buff items up, but each buff increases the chance of a negative outcome.
