Hey y’all. I wanted to warn every one so they don’t fall into the same problem I did. I finally got enough gear for another G13. Stoked, right?! So I crafted the gear on a different character, thinking I would stash it for later. The gear had the same name, same sub-gear to craft it, but was NOT interchangeable. Check it out- here’s an example- sith trooper and STH have the exact same gear 13 piece, same name, same crafting recipe. But they are not interchangeable!!! So now, I am stuck with this G13 piece I can’t use on the character I want.very frustrating.

I really hope this isn't WAI. That would be awful.

That should be your clue to not do the exact thing you did.

If you read the description in the gear pack(s) inthe shop, it tells you that any gear 13 piece crafted is unique to the character its crafted for.

Yeah they’ve already said that G12 finishers you craft on one character will not be compatible on another character

They’ve already stated when the G12 finisher pieces are unique to every characters. This is intended and was stated pretty clearly

Why would you craft it on a different character in the first place? Craft it on the character you intended to save it for. I’m sorry but the only person to blame here is you, for being careless.

Thanks for the heads up (I had no idea). It really shouldn't make a difference where you craft the item. I can't think of any logical reason to bind/restrict it all of a sudden. As a f2p casual player I didn't realize this was "explicitly stated". I also don't bother looking at the pay packs in the store either so I definitely wouldn't have known.

I've crafted stun guns before just because. I've also crafted and then had second thoughts on equipping...

Don't mind the haters hating on you. You'll be the martyr for this scenario!

I'm with you, man. And thanks to OP for the heads up. I get it now, but this is some weird voodoo.

Guys, please just understand what g13 actually is. It's just another bottleneck to make whales feel proud for their purchase and to push them to spend more. Like pretty much everything they added and will add. Just keep quiet and try too keep up, r all you will do is giving them more ideas to put even the dumbest whales that can't win even after spending on a pedestal.

Oh look, a comment by @Drazhar about whales. Imagine my suprise.
Maybe it's time you practice what you preach and keep quiet. Your comments are just whining about whales at every chance you get even if it doesn't relate to the thread at all. It serves no purpose whatsoever. It's getting boring and if i'm being honest it has been pathetic for quite a while. Go watch some MobileGamer vids and go HAM in that comment section.
