none of the npc marks have really been any kind of challenge to me.

decent armor, great gun, novice cm/mbh/master carbs

for a challenge, i go to yavin iv and take on some lvl 88 black sun. after fighting two of those (not simultaneously) my health was at 300, i was full of food and drink, and nearly out of mind. i actually had to use tactics against them (run behind tree, heal, pop out for a shot or two, time kd's right, etc)

i vote for getting lvl 88 marks with no increase in loot - we get enough as it is.


/agree

i think the people who claim they are easy, probably arent talking about the same kind of mark which the ones having trouble are on about, so to say they are easy and etc is a bit much. If you think they're too easy forget about loot and go after a jedi

These new makrs are tough espically the Boss Hogg marks. My problem is that I can't get them to go AFK before I attack.

No.. I am talking about the double golden chevrons. Those are the bosses right? 30k Ham?

They are not that hard. I really don't know why people say they are. If you don't use stimDs that heal for 1200, then yes they would be hard. But anyone over CL60 can use those and Ruby Biel.

It's extremely simple. Use your high damage attacks and any damage mitigation specials you have. Then you just heal once or twice. Make sure you use KD as often as possible, followed by you highest damage hit.

These new NPC marks even the yellow cones are to easy. Lets bump these puppies up and make this hard. I would also like for the loot to be fixed for the yellow-coned marks. I had 5 in a row yesterday and only one gave out a decent tape. I was getting better loot from the normal non-bosses.


P.S. I'm not even done with my template and I was able to take out all of my marks with great ease.

Nobody ever claimed that a premium crystal was gonna drop each time you pulled a boss mark. It says you have a slight chance of better drops off these.

I got a level 84 boss with 30k ham. Came up to him, and what do youknow, he's swimming in the middle of a river. He was dead before he could even get to shore. Looted a slice component. Everyone's saying how easy the marks are, and that's true for some of us, and how they should be harder with the loot drops the way they are, but I've hunted Night Sisters and Black Sun where the loot drops are few and far between, so I think it's pretty damn nice to see some loot every time I take down one of these guys. I looted a +7 LS Speed CA, and it's fetching 6 mil on the trade forums right now, so I'm not complaining about the loot drops one bit.

Yeah I don't want them any harder.. unless they are going to drop some REALLY good loot. Like Mando or something. I mean.. let's be honest... an NPC is never going to be as hard as a PC. NPCs are static, they are programmed a certain way... the AI can be figured out. It's like soloing Krayts... you eventually find out how to run in a circle and not take a hit. Same thing w/ these NPC bounties, people will figure out how to kill them no matter what. If you want a challenge do the PC Jedi missoins. No two hunts are exactly alike.

So, I take it that MBH/MRifles is THE way to go to hunt NPC marks? Currently I'm a MBH(respec)/MSmuggler and I had alot of problems just trying to take out a CL81 last night. I've got decent composite(not the 7k stuff, but good), a PSG and low SAC/good damage pistols so I'd like to think it's not my equiptment.




I'm using MCH/MBH and with a Lurking Shear Mite (cl 69) from Dathomir and a pack or two of pet-stim-Ds, I can take a boss mark down pretty quick. I've looted two Illegal core boosters in the last two days that way. With this combo I can (not easily) solo the Black Sun cl88 and 89 NPCs on Yavin, but it takes WAY more pet-stims.

i see nothing wrong with the marks so far. the 7k marks are pretty much the same as they used to be but the elite and boss marks are pretty tough. I have to use KD, startle, eye and confusion shot a lot just to give me some time to heal and regroup. I haven't died yet but I've had some close calls. Though they are not much help, I use a combat R# droid as well. They doo help take some of the edge off and I use a T21 made with high end krayt tissues
