White MK IV items

Not sure if this has been addressed or not, so I aplogize in advance if it has. I set out ysterday to get 2nd order badges of exploration through the Hromi cluster (I'm a lt. commander) in order to purchase Green MK IV items from the shipyard at Sol base. I did this in hopes to finally purchase tier 2 tactical ship weapons on Memory Alpha. I have all the anamolous data but not the WHITE MK IV item. I have heard that these are only available through random loot. Is this true.

Also, will this issue be addressed in the next Memory alpha fix?

    People still bother with the "crafting"?

    Yes, it's true. There have been statements made by the devs to the effect that they are considering adding a vendor to Memory Alpha that will sell white items for crafting, when the first revamp comes out. I'm waiting for that to happen before I bother with that place.

    Well, for the first time since starting in Feb... I got past Romaine.. so I figured I'd give it a try, only to be disappointed.

    No.

    Just think outside the box.

    One of the work-arounds is to start a Klingon Character, who has the ability to buy Mk IV items from vendors, and Email the items to your Crafting character...

    The other work-around is, (if your character is high enough rank...) to purchase a Tier 3 ship from the shipyard, and salavage it for it's base white Mk IV components, then discard the worthless hulk afterwards...

    Now the long term solution is that promised 'Ferengi' Vendor for the Memory Alpha update...

    These suggestions are extremely helpful. Thanks a bunch! I didn't even realize I could salvage a ship for parts. Thats neat.
