Hmmmm..... I think there will be other ways to get upgrade kits around DR, maybe future lockboxes or PVE queues.... I'm getting mines off the Exchange right now, prices aren't, TOO bad IMO.
I'm sorry to people who I, in the past, insulted, annoyed, etc.
I don't use RD, so for me no. Too get what I need off the Rep System, Exchange or from Elite PVE drops have some neat stuff along with Elite Fleet PVE too.
From what's been said I think you have to have level 5 in its relevant school to upgrade an item, then level 15 to use the "superior" upgrades (not entirely sure what they are called, as soon as I saw it cost dilithium I lost interest).

No you don't need R&D exp to upgrade your gear, but you do need R&D exp to make the upgrade kits. You can't upgrade gear w/o the upgrade kits. You can buy the upgrade kits off the exchange but you will need a good chunk of ec to get enough upgrade kits to do all your gear. It takea multiple upgrade kits to do 1 piece of gear, and just over 1k dil for the superior upgrade kits each time they are applied. Each type of gear requires a different amount of upgrade kits. The superior upgrade kits are the best to use, you get more experience points toward the upgrade, 12,600 i think vs improved upgrade kits 5,000 exp. The improved upgrade kits take around 900 dil each time they are applied, so superior is the best way to go.
You don't need R&D experience to use the upgrades. However you will need Dil to get the project started. I have used them on those other characters that don't have R&D. I just create my own upgrades and mail it to my other characters. Then just apply it. As long they have Dil to use. I have upgraded several items so far like this.
Making your own is lot cheaper than buying from the Exchange. And not helping the greedy players.

Thanks i forgot to mention in my post that u can transfer the upgrade kits u make from toon with the R&D exp to you other toons with either the mail system or account bank if u have one.
Greedy? Hey I'm just helping those with the EC (but not research exp) to help themselves. :P

Thanks so far there is how ever a little flaw in your tekst, because the ship vendor also sell upgrade items/kits I discovert it's only green but as I talked with the fleet its the same thing you get from R&D and only cost you 10.000 a piece or was it a Thousand. well anyway ship vendors or kit vendors also sell them...
Thats better at least
