SW Finding Gear Legal

These mechanics are for items that are not Restricted. For those items, see Finding Restricted Gear.

Availability

How available a piece of equipment is depends on two things: its Rarity, and the place where they are being sought from.

Find the Rarity of the equipment in question.
Add in the Rarity Modifier of the location where you are searching for the item.
If the final Rarity is a 3 or less, you can automatically find it, at Brand New condition.
If the Availability is 4 or higher, or you are looking for a Superior, Roughed Up, or Junk condition item, you will need to search for a seller.

Make a Knowledge (Core Worlds) or Knowledge (Outer Rim) check to find the item you are searching for.
- Difficulty: based on the final Rarity (including Rarity Modifiers) of the item.
- Modifiers: Superior Item (+2 Rarity, +5000cr) • Roughed Up (-1 Rarity, 50% normal cost) • Junk (-2 Rarity, 25% normal cost)
If the place where you are searching has a datanet or is part of the HoloNet, you may instead make a Computers check to search.
Time for Search: Rarity 3 or less (1 day) • Rarity 4-5 (2 days) • Rarity 6-7 (4 days) • Rarity 8+ (one week)
