Thread: so, where are these bio harvesters and why are they just given to csr's friends?

lately I've been seeing a couple different guys on my server selling large quantaties of milk for even larger amounts of credits. some have seen it go for as high as 100 units for 1million credits. myself, I've seen it go for 350k for 100 units. why is it that these bio harvesters aren't available yet to everyone? it's obvious they work! why are only a select few of them out there and just what criteria is needed to be met to get one, merely be a friend of the csr giving them out? testing them is one thing, but when it comes down to someone monopolizing the market in such a way, that's completely unacceptable. this needs to be changed and quickly. it's unfair and it's complete bs! we've been waiting on some way of getting milk/eggs since beta days. I think your time is up, it's been nearly 5 months this game has been live and we've yet to see you correct this problem.

Go to Talus Pather Town and get some milk 100 units is not a large amount. I went there and in a 2 hrs span, I got 28 units.


There are two containers there (out of 3)that spawns about 2 items eachper 30 mins. Each item has adecent chance of it being milk. So u get 4 chance of getting a milk every 30 mins. I got 3 saparate stacks 11,11,6. They stacks.

The thought that I have to camp loot spots in order to harvest a resource seems pretty lame.

no kidding, rondo.


at this rate we will probably see holocron harvesters before we get farms/bio-harvesters.

What kind of milk? Domestic or wild?

The most likely reason that they had milk in such large stacks isn't because of bio harvesters. In the last couple of weeks there was a resource dupe that was fixed in the last patch.

I've only looted 4 units of wild milk myself, off of some Kungas on Dant.

I was told nightsisters drop milk rather often. Have not confirmed that though.

It's on Talus, near Nashal around 4300 1000. I went out there and tried to find milk, but no luck. Maybe you'll have better luck. Be careful though, it is afamous exploit area (people can attack GSP's without being attacked back) and I'm sure is watched by CSR's who are very suspicious of anyone just hanging around in the area. So make sure you maintain your best behavior, lest you rouse their anger.

I had novice ranger and just walked in and loot freely . And while you are waiting, do some samplingand craftingwhile you wait for it to respawn.


Of course if they pathers catches you, its a long walk back.


On the topic of camping to get milk. Sure it does sucked. I didn't say I liked it nor did I say its easy. But milk IS there. It IS possible to get them "reliably" abeit in small quantities. It requires patience and persistence. The good thing is that it does not requires fighting to get i.e. kungas/nightsisters.
