Hey all, making my nightly stop at woolamander temple to get my usual one or two fragments before I call it a night. Anyway, to my surprise I looted 5 bone fragments with identical serial numbers ! Does this mean they're no longer worth 400k each now ? What does this mean as far as RIS armor goes ?

Same thing with feathers, multiples looted and the old ones have serials now, too.

The patch was supposed to fix theexploits possible with non-serialized loot by making crafting tools only accept serialized items and assigning serials to all non-serialized items. It didn't work very well; many items are still unserialized (and now unusable) and it will not be possible to craft any berserker rifles until something is fixed because there are no berserker rifle barrels with serial numbers.

Still wouldnt explain why I would loot 5 at a time. I nor anyone has ever looted more than one woolamander bone fragment before from a Harrower. If its just meant to fix an exploit then boy did they screw up. Cause now RIS armor is about to get a whole lot more common.

Isn't RIS supposed to have lightsaber resist? Maybe this is a stealth-fix to make RIS somewhat usable instead being of avery expensive and rare house decoration.


edit: apparently RIS is lightsaber vuln, but i thought they said it and mando and PSGs would be the only things not LS vuln

You get one or two everytime you kill them? I have killed 10 woolimannder harrowers and I haven't gotten a single bone from them.

No, in fact before publish 9 nobody ever got more than one bone off a woolamander. Same goes for Gurk king hide, etc. Drop rate has always been 1/10 for woolamander bones. Sometimes I have to kill 3-4 spawns but usually loot 1-2 before the night is over. So last night was a shocker when I looted one and saw 5 bone fragments in my inventory.

Mando will always be worthless as long as it's only available in a bunker full of overpowered droids.


There's only two or three pieces across all the servers. It'll probably be months before anyone has a full set, and no one would ever actually use it in combat because it's such a huge pain in the ass to make. Also the stats suck.
