Thread: Bounty Hunter Armor Info and Loot Rate
Just wanted toshare some info about BH Armor with all my fellow Armorsmiths.
General Info
BH Armor looks like this: http://mg.web-cites.com/armor.html (Look at Assault Armor)
Theyare CL88 and CL89 Elite. They are pretty tough unless you know what you're doing.
The Black Suns are still indeed soloable and 80%of my post-CU kills were done solo.

Post-CU BH Armor is NON-WEARABLE
Pre-CU BH Armor has "Crafted" behind the name of the Armor piece, and can not be used to craft Mando unless it's "refitted" (you get an option in the radial).
The drop rate seems to vary a lot, but this is what I have so far.
I didn't keep tabs on the first 100 or so BS's, so I'll start at #101 since I have data after that.
#119 Bracer
#125 Legging
#155 Chest Plate
#163 Bicep
#207 Gloves
#214 JetPack Base
#225 Legging
#231 Boots
#234 Helmet
#262 Bicep
If others can post their loot rate, perhaps we can get a better idea of what the drop rate is for each piece.

Good stuff.. this will keep people from sayin it doesn't drop anymore. Gonna post a link to this on the BH forums
I tried some of the techniques in that post you mentioned, and none of them worked. Black sun guy werent at 0,0 endor anymore, nor were they on the yavin beaches.
Not slighting you, great post! Just giving a heads up to other readers.

Fly to research outpost on Endor then look at the planetary map. See that mountain just north of the outpost? A group or two of Black Sun will be somewhere on that mountain at all times.
Same with two or three of the mountains on Yavin, and the mountain next to Imperial Prison on Dath (although I hear the group near Imperial Prison have a limited spawn area on that mountain).
As far as tactics go, here's a little trick i used post-CU as a rifleman.
Cover, use conceal shot until the target breaks cover. At this range they will switch to mellee weapons, ussually a stun baton. Now you can kite them like a mellee mob as they seem to not switch back to their ranged weapon no matter how far away you get.

Hmm, I must have either terrible luck or have come right after you.
On some nights, I'd find spawn after spawn, like 1 every 500m or so.
On others, I'd find only 1 or 2 spawns in a whole hour searching the shorelines AND mountains.
If the spawns seem to be scarce, I suggest you do something else for a day or two and wait for a server reset.
I've been rotating between GDK/Gurk King, Gorax and BS for the past few weeks since I have nothing to craft. LOL
