Synthweaving is the process of fabricating synthetic materials out of crystals, various chemicals and artifact fragments to construct mastery armorings and armor for Force users. Armorings are upgrade modifications that augment combat ability. Vendors provide premade solutions, suspensions and composites that are used during the Synthweaving process. Synthweavers can reverse engineer their crafted armor and possibly discover new ways to improve armor creation. The gathering skill Archaeology provides crafting resources for Synthweaving.

Synthweavers can also craft critical, defense, and alacrity augments. These can be installed in any item that has an augment slot.

Gathering Skill: Archaeology, Slicing
Mission Skill: Underworld Trading
