1) out in middle of ocean

2) Next to a pack or stormies, stormies start attacking, CTD. Load back in, target gone, no corpse, no loot and disabled swoop

3) Kill, open corpse to see loot, find a decent CA in there. Corpse disappears taking the CA with it.

1.) There's a guide somewhere around here that tells you how to keep your mark from spawning in the water. But basically, if you pull up your planetary map and they are in the ocean you have a few choices. a.) abort b.) wait for them to move.


Your makr will constantly (ish) move until you get within 500m of them, then they stop. Your mark, will not be generated in-game until you get within 108m of them, up until then, it's just a wp.


2.) Don't hunt on active duty


3.) make a macro for looting ..... /loot; = problem solved. No reason at all to ever Open a corpse.


4-6.) After the BH loot pub, I have never had a mark completely empty.


I've had alot of fun chasing down NPC marks

So far they have been fun for me. Ive only done maybe 30 of them so far and they are dropping loot. Looted a nice dbl-ls speed +15 ca just yesterday off of a elite mark. All have been elites except for two of em.

Take the suggestion above and wait for them to move off of water before engaging. Hope you have better luck.

double click on corpse instead of opening loot window


And 6 missions is not a try for me.... let me guess : you used respec to become Mbh to hunt jedi and never tried NPC missions before?

I can only speak for myself here. I have had about 20 Boss marks total. Alot of good loot.

Total $$ made since our publish:

1. Mission payout

2. Credits from marks

3. Credits from forum auctions of loot from marks


Totaling over 100m income in 3 weeks


I will say not a waste of my time....
