Any suggestions on how to craft the level 5 armor?Get your list of required materials and start hunting.
Buy all you can from the vendor on the Nexus and the vendor on the Tempest.
Go to Planet H-047C. Most of what you need is there in bulk.
Every time your ready to craft an N7 piece,equip some junk armor and deconstruct the old N7. You get back a pretty good chunk of the materials.
Don't worry about using any Ultra Rare Augments. If you do,use the ones that shorten cool downs and add to biotic force.
I just finished my Level 10 N7 armor tonight. It is godly 😉
I am level 17.
I have enough mily way point to buy N7 armor level 3.
I don't have other milky way points for level 4 and 5.
How did you get so much point?Scanning and opening the right Cryo-Pod to get research points.
wow, I don't know what cryo pods are.
where are those cryo pods and what should I do to open them?

You know that operations table on the Tempest?
The one with crafting,strike missions and AVP.... the thing where you pick between science,military and merchant cryo-pods.
When you make an outpost and get to open cryo-pods...choose the ones that have the perk to give you more research points on a regular basis.
ah ok, I choosed to faster gather research points.
should I return to that menu on regular basis to get those points ?
thanks

Yes. Check often.
You can get the points once per hour (ingame time). There is a timer 🙂
thank you all guys, I really appreciate your help.
now another nOOb question for you.
I have enough points to research the N7 armor level 4.
Does it have sense to waste minerals to build a level 4 armor or should I wait level 5?
What is your approach? Do you built an armor as soon as you have research points/minerals to do it?
If I build level 4 armor, I will not have enough minerals for level 5...
If your weapons are up to date, you can push the armor out another tier. What I do is research armor in one faction and weapons in another. For instance, I use the Remnant Sweeper as my goto Assault Rifle and Initiative Pathfinder/N7 for armor. This way I am never short on research points. Also, buy as often as possible the addition research under AVP. Beyond that, scan everything. Listen for the bleep and scan.
I will admit with my Tech/Biotic build the Angaran armor with the N7 would be best, but uhg that look. Sorry but there has to be some form over function.
Materials really won't be a problem for the most part later on. As well if you deconstruct any armors you get from drops will help get you more materials. The increase between levels as well is not very noticable. So waiting wont make your game harder. So you could wait till you can make lv 6 or even 7 armor. There were points where I was using armor 2 lvs under what I could make. I did not feel in any more danger. Sure the buffs made combat a little better. Just not so much that I felt like I needed to constantly upgrade.
Again though, for me. The armor I was using tend to drop often. Same for my weapons. So that helped.

How did you get so much point?AVP points, also exploring and scanning planets, you find things that grant MW research points.

Have you checked the armor vendor on the Nexus?
I think mine sold N7 armor...after I had crafted it.
If you want it, make sure you do not waste research points, unless you research weapons from Andromeda or the Kerts. Then all the Milkyway points will be available for your N7 armor and some mods.
Either you spent some on weapons and mods, or they will simply come available later in the game. I finished at level 71. At 17, you are basically only starting.
Yes, everytime you come onboard the Tempest. But there are other perks that will reduce the time to gather points. You can read them by yourselves.
