Availability

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

Calculate Final Availability

  • Find the Rarity of the equipment in question.
  • Add in the Rarity Modifier of the location where you are searching for the item.
  • Finally, add in a Condition Modifier, as follows:
    • Superior Quality: For an item with the Superior Attachment (1 Hard Point), +2 Rarity, +5000 credits
    • Roughed Up Quality: For an item with permanent Minor damage (add one Setback-die.png to all rolls with it), -1 Rarity, 50% of normal cost.
    • Junked Quality: For an item with permanent Moderate damage (add one Difficulty-die.png to all rolls with it), -2 Rarity, 25% of normal cost.
  • If the final Rarity is a 1 or less, you can automatically find it, at Brand New condition.
    • If the Availability is 2 or higher, you will need to search for a seller.

Searching for a Seller

  • Make a Knowledge (Core Worlds) or Knowledge (Outer Rim) check to find the item you are searching for. The Difficulty and Time spent searching depend on the Rarity, as below:
Rarity Difficulty Time
0-3 Simple ( – ) Immediate
4-5 Easy (Difficulty-die.png) One day
6-7 Average (Difficulty-die.pngDifficulty-die.png) Two days
8-9 Hard (Difficulty-die.pngDifficulty-die.pngDifficulty-die.png) Four days
10+ Daunting (Difficulty-die.pngDifficulty-die.pngDifficulty-die.pngDifficulty-die.png) One week
  • 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.

Buying the Item

  • Once the item is found, it can simply be purchased at the available price.
  • If a character wishes, they may attempt to haggle.

The Meet

  • The meeting occurs as agreed upon by the buyer and seller.
  • Upon meeting the seller, the buyer (or his representative) must make an Impressions check.
    • If the seller is allowed to choose a meeting advantageous to them, grant one or more Boost-die.png to the Impressions check.
    • If the buyer insists on a meeting advantageous to them, it inflicts one or more Setback-die.png.
  • At the meet, either side may utilize Negotiation
