Good to know. I have a feeling the drop rates on these things aren't as bad as some have made them out to be if you stick to random spawns.

10 MILLION?!?!?! Good lord I am glad I am on Naritus. They sell for 3 million. We are the lightest populated server in SWG though so that might have something to do with it.


Yeah, I would suggest using NS layers to make your armor. I have used 9% and 7% base ones consistently and have had very very good results so far. So you really dont need the Peko Peko feathers. The vulnerabilities kill the armor's use for any type of pvp which sucks, but it is still cool to have.

Is there a difference between the "GDK scale" and Kimogila Scale Segments? I bought 9 identical scale segments (12% base) off a guy in Coronet last night for 20k a pop. I was thinking that maybe this was a steal, but I am not sure if they are the same thing as the RIS Component. (Have not done the quest yet.) Could someone clarify this for me?

They are not the same thing. The kimo scale segments are used for making bone armor only. The GDK scale is a stat-less component that is used specifically for RIS.

Well DAMN, I thought I had scored the deal of the year on those things. Now I feel like I wasted my money. Oh well...

My last run on gurk hides went better, 2 out of 10...that's something I can live with. Since I started counting GDK's killed, I am up to around 40 now and not a single scale...heck, not even the ones for bone armor.

well i guess my question has been answered about if SOE hates me or not seems they hate us all i've killed to date over 50+ GDK's (solo)and only 1 scale drop and from what i've seen i've really under bit myself..but now i quest for the componets my self and the only troubled one is the GDK scale...so my new question is for those who have obtained some are you killing and pulling from static spawn spot or finding them out in the wild..?????...at least now sence they nerfed the wall cheat (doesnt matter im tkm)..they should atleast make them drop more then never...lol
