Gamble

The Gamble is a Crafting Armstech Archived Unique Trainer blaster pistol that can be found in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The Gamble can be worn at any level in the Outfitter - it's a cosmetic weapon, and has no stats attached to it.

How to Get: Crafting Armstech Archived Unique Trainer (Retired Schematic)

This is a direct screenshot of the Gamble! The file name is galactic-shrieker-2342-thumbnail.png - as long as I named it right and didn't mix up its name with another weapon, this should be an exact screenshot of this weapon, which I or another player actively owned.

Sound: Grit

All Blaster Pistols with the Grit sound type have the same sound, including the Gamble. This isn't the official name, and this Blaster Pistol sound type may be labelled something like weaponrangedblasternormal01 in the background of the game.

I do not have a video of the Gamble, but you can watch a video of the Grit weapon to hear the Grit sound type, which is the same as the Gamble.

How to Get Archived Armstech Trainer Unique Weapons

Read more about these weapons at the SWTOR Armstech Crafting Guide page on Swtorista.com.

The Armstech crew skill trainer can teach players how to craft many crafted weapons sets as they level up in Armstech. However, these semi-retired crafted weapons sets are no longer available to be learned from the Armstech trainer from the launch of the game 1.0 - they were removed from the trainer in Update 4.0, and replaced with a more streamlined set of weapons schematics to be learned from the trainer. However, if you can find someone who learned the old schematics from the trainer pre-4.0, they can craft you these items, as the crafted items are Binds on Equip.

How to get the Gamble

The Gamble is a crafted Blaster Pistol, but the ability to learn how to craft it yourself is no longer available. Only players who learned the ability to craft it in the past can craft it now - so you will need to find someone who can craft it for you, or get lucky and find it on the GTN.

Identical Weapons

These weapons will have an identical or very similar look to the Gamble. There's no real name for the appearance, but I've labelled it blasterlow11a03v04 which may be a name I call all identical weapons, or a name in the game files.
