I know I'm beating a dead horse and I know some people have hot and cold streaks, but COME ON.


I did 45 missions yesterday. I played for about 9-10 hours or so along withfighting a few jedi and talking with friends as well but for the MOST part: NPC mark hunting. I killed quite a few marks that were in towns as I starported in. Was nice and quick and refreshing.


I fought about 40 elites and 5 boss marks or so...can't remember the exact count. I fought on every planet from little eyed joe to damned if I know and one of my boss mark fights was perfect as I led him into a couple of rancors on Dathomir that were giving him a new meaning to the two words: PURE PWNAGE.


Anyway while I had fun fighting all night, I did NOT have fun looting. 45 missions fighting elite and boss marks and looted not one SINGLE CA or AA. All I got was smuggler loot and some adv armor cores...oh and a warm hat! Woot!


I have to ask you...was this yet ANOTHER bad night or is something seriously wrong with elites/boss mark loot?????

last 2 nights i got a +15 unarmed accuracy tape, and a +11 unarmed speed tape.


i'm gonna make a TKM very happy.


the 2 nights before that i got mandolorian intraframes and bugs...


that's the way the ball bounces.


i just think of the loot as a bonus...it makes me feel better when i track a mark to the very north east corner of tatooine, have to fight him in between 2 dragon spawns, and then only loot a jar of bugs.

How is it possible to spend HOURS doing nothing but elite and boss marks as a MBH and not get squat??? I can understand 10 missions and not getting anything but 40+?????

I got a couple "great" satchels, some bugs, a meroj melon.. more smuggler loot than I have storage space for.. 4 BH helmets, 3 Left Bicep, 1 left bracer, 1 right bracer.. and 3 decent, but not great, CAs. This was from doing more than 35 missions over 2.5 days (well over 1 mil credits worth of missions).

The loot is random though. Since I started doing these new BH missions (80-100 missions and counting) I have only got a total of 4 CAs, and 3 of them on the same day. I've got 1 complete suit of BH armor + tons of "extra" parts that wont complete a suit. Many many jars of bugs, some meroj melons and way to many slicing components.

Just some encouragement for you I think it really is a luck/timing issue. 2 nights ago I got 8 Mandalorian Intraframes from 8 straight marks.


Last night I got 5 CA's in a row from as many marks including a Tracking Effectiveness 14 and a CA w/ dbl ls spd9 and force regen 1. Also got several nice schems and armor components in that run.


So it comes and goes.

I have NEVER gotten more than 1 CA or AA in one night of hunting. 5 CA's in a row? Are you a MBH fighting level 80 missions and getting those level 81-82 elite and/or boss marks?


Explain how please.

Yeah it was abnormal I'm sure. As I was relaying the events in our guild TS, several of them dropped what they were doing and started doing missions !


Yes, MBH doing the 80 missions. They were all the silver chevron marks, and it was 5 in a row but the well ran dry with one being a foraged bug drop and I decided to scoop up my lewt and call it a night. One of the marks was even the always fun 4 items on one drop mark, including the CA, a crystal, a schem and an ICB. I love those !

No FS, seriously it's a random deal. Like I mentioned before, for a night like this there were several nights of nothing but junk.

Ok. I guess I'm just frustrated because I dedicated last night to nothing but doing npc marks to get some good loot but ended up getting only smuggler stuff. I'll keep trying.
