I have to agree with Srednii, it was awesome to think that any MAS would be able to make this with the loot drop upped. Not everyone came into this game with creds or duped them or bought them off of ebay to be able to afford anything they want.
Some craftsman honestly earned their creds while others didn't. The ones complaining I'm guessing are the ones who didn't, because any armorsmith would gladly accept a better drop rate to be able to offer more choices for their customers.
The ones complaining because they can't be the only ones wearing RIS are the ones that need to realize it is like everything in RL at first only the small amount of people can afford it or have it, then it lowers in value and everyone can afford it, because availibility is upped. So get over it!
1) High drop rate on crystals so there is no need for Krayt pearls or paying high prices anymore. (YEAH!)
2) Higher drop rate on RIS components needed so everyone can enjoy it! (Hope they keep this in play!)
3) No TEFs for Jedi, Awesome no looking over my shoulder to worry about some idiot messing up my night!
4) I have to give a shout out to the SOE team and Devs for making SWG a product for everyone to enjoy not just the ones who have no life!
Go get a profession so you don't have to live off of other people's money, earn it the old fashioned way.
Oh and I unlocked on profession 29 so I earned it, by the way the profession that unlocked me = Professional Crap Giver (earned via the SOE Forumns!)

Awww, that sucksguess RIS goes back to being armor only 1 or 2 people per server can enjoy.
So tell me, what were you enjoying while I was out killing enough GDK's to loot eight scales over the course of three months? What was stopping you from from killing GDK's or putting out bounties for them attractive enough to lure the loot hunters away from the krayts?
I love this whining, it's like Lok doesn't exist on some of your clients or you're somehow barred from mastering a combat profession. There's absolutely nothing stopping you from crafting RIS, you just choose to do something else with your time.
m8... why the hostility? I commented that I find it sad that what... 1 quarter of viable armorsmith armor is utilized by just 1 or 2 smiths per server. I didn't rail against the fates, I didn't cuss and moan. I didn't "whine" as you put forth. I gave an opinion, I am entitled to an opinion arn't I?
If you want to see whining check out that thread where the 1 or 2 RIS certified smiths from each server found out that the components were dropping at increased rates. That was some champion whining there.

Its all good for now but what happens after the combat nerf when noone can solo these and itt akes a hug group to go kill a GDK for the POSIBILITY (slim at that) of getting 1/4 of the loot requirements for 1/9th of a suit of armor for 1 person in the group. What is fun about that?

Maybe Caswell can cry somemore and tell us how hard he worked on his armor.
/ turn down volume when he speaks.
I want a straight answer from our Representitive....will he represent the majority of AS if we support a higher dropnumber but keep the drop rate (like 1 in 65) ?
1-2 people all excited about protecting there "hard work" doesn't mean his/her one voice speaks for us all.
I would like the Dev's to here that the majority( or if we cannot establish that, at least there is a strong disagreement) of AS'sAPPROVE of this change and wish it to remain in place.

yeah for all you little **edit** who wanted a full suit of RIS off of 3 drops.... well guess what.. there have been people who have been breaking their balls to get 2 or 3 pieces the past month, months.... so you can stop your crying and work like the rest of us....
I personally said if this bull**edit** drop rate went into the game, after a definitive answer from TH said that drop rates wouldn't increase, would equal my cancelled subscription outright..... I have patience.. but I cannot except complete stupidity....
they give jedi's new pearls for their work.. they give people level 10 mounts for their level 12 mounts... they sure as hell would have to give me 2 full suits of RIS for the work I did, if they changed the rules mid-way through without any word about it...
I don't mind changes... but to expect someone who has worked his ass off the last 2 months to be **edit**ed over by a "developers change" on RIS drops would cause me to do everything in my power to destroy all that is SWG.... (yes unlike those who expect everything to be easy.. there are some of us out there that have worked like dogs to get this prize useless **edit** armor, why is this armor in the game again????, the purpose of which has left it as a question mark... or simply a nice "show-off" piece)
Changes can happen... I accept that in all mmorpg's.... but to lie out-right to a player base is unacceptable....
looks like you cry babies are going to have to work for it like those before you.....
(if the developers are going to give away jedi slots with poor planning and very very stupid people making decisions , **edit** over our combat balance with SIX MONTHS OF "WAIT IT'S COMING, PLEASE KEEP PLAYING even though we KNOW things are **edit**ed", and destroy the SWG vision of the first mmorpg made for the casual gamer... then you idiots aren't going to take the one piece of "cool" you put in this game with rare armor)..... oh sorry do I sound mad.... maybe it's because I am the player base that gives a **edit** about this game.... and am seeing it go to all **edit**..... whine at my words, but my vision will not be destroyed..... or to quote a very poetic justice in this case "You can't win, Developers. If you strike me down(with bull**edit** stupidity), I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine(by leaving you with a product that might draw customers but can't keep them because of your lack of long term vision)".... keep going developers.... your game will be fine by **edit**ing over those who give a damn.. like their isn't enough "bugs", we have to put up with complete stupidity on top of it....

but I re-arranged my character so that I could kill a GDK without help(so I could play when I want and not worry about others), which infact took a lot of time...
Quoted for emphasis. You're only seeing one side of it.
We know that changes are coming that will make what you "worked" so hard for impossible. It was never intended. So maybe you shouldn't even have RIS.
/sarcasm off?

And apparently your not seeing the other side of it... I think all the whining is coming from those *if they are armorsmiths* that either A. Haven't had the opportunity to make it B. Don't make it often enough C. want to see a rare thing become obsolete.
Don't know about your servers but mine had some people that were playing and "working" hard to get it and to see it come so easy is discouraging...
/sarcasm on
maybe they should get a set of 10 in their inventories for actually getting it when it was hard? wouldn't that be fair?
now that is some sarcasm for you
