What's to stop all the BH's from spending all there time on this new loot? Why not make it so you can loot one item off your real jedi mark. Except you can't loot his saber or robe.

Only if a lightsaber is able to melt through the door of a BH house and Jedi are able to take stuff from the BH body or their house. I would like to get a few ADKs or clothing with nice mods.
Seriously, legalizing item robbery is a pretty stupid idea.

Well it wouldn't have to be loot the Jedi actually had. You could use the loot option and the game would spawn some random loot into your inventory. They Jedi wouldn't even know the difference. But seeing as how these NPC missions are supposed to wing us off of PC bounties, it will never happen. Besides they would say 255k payout is enough.

/agree
and the loot would have to be close to what that jedi is worth. So a full template jedi would spawn say a 15+ mod ca or some thing like that. The tape should relate to normal proffs and not jedi.

If this ever happens I would macro the following line: "Tip me 5 mill and I will stay and fight, otherwise I will Stasis / FR3 or Cloak"

This thread is sad. Either go for the 31k npc bountiesand the loot or go after the jedi for the 200k payout without loot. I think some of us are getting spoiled. We have more content than any other prof and you still want more.

Im sorry and dont mean to flame anyone, but his HAS to be the worst idea ever.


You actually have 2 opportunities for content now.



  1. NPC targets that are relatively easy marks ( sometimes time consuming and buggy) but has the chance of GREAT loot

  2. Player targets that may or may not be easy, but mostly offers fight anda thrillAND a fair payout...

What you want is the best of two worlds... relax man. You cant have it all

The real problem is that the profit for a full-template Jedi mark is reduced considerably when you factor in weapons, armor, food, stims, etc.


The other REAL problem is also that the loot tables for BH NPC marks as they are now are really what all the higher-end mob drop rates should be. SW:G has always been pathetically skimpy on loot drops and loot drop rates, it's by far the worst MMORPG for drop rates on loot out of all the halfway successful games on the market right now.


Really though, if your goal is to see BH loot nerfed back to nothing again, keep posting these discussions, sooner or later A dev will see it, and instead of fixing the real problems, they'll just nerf loot again, and then everyone will be really pissed.


SOE has an almost bulletproof pattern of Nerfing things because it's easier than fixing.
