E-11 Blaster - A Newb Needs Advice

[Dreadnought]

Hi all. While I scrimp and save and top up my armour fund, I thought I'd gather some of the other things I'll need. The belt, neck seal, holster and boots are all ordered, so I'd thought I'd look at the blaster next. I've been looking at a kit on Trooperbay and I've checked out the blaster build threads (some are intimidatingly awesome) but am unsure where to spend my money when it comes to the blaster. As I've mentioned before, I'm certainly not handy (I'll probably lose a finger in my armour build) and all the blaster kit build threads I've seen involve so many 'additions' to the basic kit. Is this just because of Expert Infantryman or Centurion aspirations? I'm after a good basic level blaster that doesn't involve a degree in engineering to construct. Any advice? Are there any local options to consider? Any help / advice / directions are greatly appreciated.
