Open Other Watto's Junk Exchange & Trash Emporium

Create a vendor at Watto's shop that will request and/or accept various pieces of looted junk throughout the galaxy, to create a use/purpose for some of the more useless loot in the game.

Power crystals, color crystals, collection items, junk armor, weapons, ship parts, isos, anything and everything that once it has served its purpose (completed your collection, etc), it can still have a purpose in the overall loot table in the game.

Watto exchange: the ability to trade items for other, better versions of those items, (ex: trade 50 housing collection non-rare for 1 rare, etc),

Weekly Watto "contracts": create a weekly quest where Watto requests a specific number or combination of items to fulfill his contract, in exchange for a currency or progress toward a badge, etc (reward options could be almost anything, ex: do Watto Weekly 10x to get a badge). People like badges, titles, creds, all would be appropriate carrots to chase.

Ultimate prize at the end of the rainbow could be a Watto Junk Bag, that would allow a fairly decent high inv capacity (as clearly the 160 slots for the pre-Jedi event people were liking), though this could be made a very tough thing to achieve but be a cool end goal.

Watto stats: be able to see how much junk everyone on the server collectively has turned in, potentially have a concept around cumulative junk turned in, that if a certain threshold is met, new rewards are unlocked, etc.

SWG proper had lots of ambition on the loot front, but as they progressed, left a lot on the table as they constantly clearly had other things taking priority. This concept would make looting true "junk" from the game (stuff that essentially serves no purpose), and turn it into a fun side activity for the server to participate in.

Also gives Watto's shop a nice, true purpose and lore for the game that's both applicable and on theme.

The thought of the number of items that eventually simply stop being useful in any capacity other than to sell for pennies or to simply trash. Turns it into a nice server wide useful scavenger hunt, weekly quest, and exchange ability to be able to take those items and manifest them into something useful for the player, even if on a small scale.
