just started doing the space missions and was wondering what ways there are to get ship upgrades. I know i did receive like a 2000 armor bonus for completing a quest, but how do i upgrade my guns and armor?

Cybertech and Slicing crew skills as well as a vendor in your fleet station.

i am cybertech but i was looking through all the skills and didn't see anything about ship upgrades. also what vendor? i looked at the one guy and it just wanted to sell me gear using the commendations i got from the space battles.

that's all i've seen too. might be the only way

dang unless its just from missions. i know the first few dont really give requirements for your ship to have but after like the first 4 it says at least level 1 armor and guns or something.

Not 100% on this since bioware isn't accepting my credit card for some reason but I believe there's a vendor near the auction house in the fleet and in the spaceport sections of the worlds.

You can buy them from the auction house too

well if they are on the ah i am assuming that people got them from other places.
i will have to look if there is another vendor

so far i have found this
There is a ship upgrade vendor at your fleet station. I think he/she is in the "galactic trade center" area of the station.
Republic Fleet – Captain Gek and S-4SO located at Galactic Trade Market area.
Imperial Fleet – Ensign Brukes and S-1A0 talked to that guy but i did not see any ship upgrades as of last night.. unless i just missed it i guess

These vendors also sell Pilot’s Equipment like Boots, Gloves, Helmet, Pants and Tunic for Fleet Commendations and require Social level II or higher. The prices are approximately 200 – 250 Fleet Commendations.

and people saying you can get the recipes from slicing missions.

There is a vendor I bought them from there. And yeah I've found several schematics for ship upgrades through slicing.

well that sucks kinda. im scavenging for the main components and underworld trading because them were the 2 recommended. and i cant even find the ship recipes like that

there's definitely a vendor for low price ship upgrades in the spaceport of nar shaddaa, at least
