A better solution: allow the skill which gives you ALL materials to let you disassemble your crafted items.

Well that's the skill that gets you into trouble though. As soon as you can disassemble for full price, you can disassemble and build the same item an infinite number of times until you get any mods you want.

You mis-quoted. Fixed it for you.

Yeah, the ability to disassemble and reassemble stuff until you get the mods you want indefinitely is a bad thing.

Though... it wouldn't hurt to have mods be generated on random weapons more often. As it stands mods are about 1/100 or something like that. What's worse is that it's usually the low level (for the area) weapons getting the mods. I don't think I've ever used modded weapons that much.

Dude, if you're going to post, post something more than just "............". Also, unormal mis-quoted. Nothing to get raged about.

What are the mods? I think I am missing something. Probably I didn't get it once.

Modifications. Like when you craft an item, it some times doesn't come as a plain version of the item. So yeah, if you could deconstruct, you could repeat until you got what you wanted.

The mods are things like Slender, Sturdy, Sharp. They change the weapon in a small but noticeable way. And I agree, they are really rare. How about upping their rate to something like 25% or more, and adding equivalent negative mods which cancel out if it modifies the same thing? For example, Bulky, Flimsy, and Blunt, and if you get Bulky and Slender it just cancels it out.

To carry this into crafting, and to make high intelligence characters more powerful, as you tinker, you have a 100% chance of adding at least one mod, but its based off intelligence the ratio of bad to good. I'm not sure if it should be absolute intelligence or a ratio based on the tinkering level of the item, but high intelligence does nothing when tinkering so far other then open it up. Perhaps a single tinker skill for everything, and an additional skill that lets you get a new data disk every time you drop say 50-100 skill points into it. Possibly let you choose categories for the new disc, and certain categories cost more skill points to get, like learning how to make a new grenade is just 25 skill points, but learning to make a sniper rifle is 100.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

I don't really like the idea of disks from points, mostly because I view them as rare artifacts you have to search for, not get for killing X glowpads.

Then just learn how to make it straight and skip the disk stage. Your a tinkerer. You should be able to figure things out. The disks would still be left for those types who can't afford to spend the skill points to get new items, while tinkering as a distinct option would be strengthened.
