Best Method for Farming Unassembled Components

The best way is Master Mode Operations, but the way I farmed UCs is not necessarily the best, but worth mentioning.

I got many UCs while getting all my characters to 300 because they upped the amount you get from disintegrating gear. Once you get to Tier 3, the blues, purples, and Legendaries are worth 7, 8, and 9 UCs. It adds up!

On my main, I saved all 242 gear set bonus pieces as well as mainhands and offhands to send to alts in Legacy gear. So for a new alt, I bought 230s with Command Tokens and would save 1 Legendary per Tier (make sure to save 2 Implants and Relics if they drop) for possible upgrades and disintegrated the rest for UCs. Bolster is good enough for SM, so I didn’t bother to upgrade until I got 242s or waited for 248s.

To get the extra CXP, I would only use CXP packets if my alignment was winning and had a CXP Boost on. Also, try to save Weeklies to complete when your side is winning for a little extra CXP.

Typically all I do is PvP, but I did the MM FP Weekly, MM Uprising Weekly, GF LBLO and Planetary Weeklies when it’s the daily bonus.
