Thread: ONLY MASTER BH CAN GET A BOSS MARK

Must be Pub 23.... I think they should make the elite boss marks higher CL but will drop you something good everytime... however make them only like 1/25 or 1/50 chance of getting them.... thats my two cents.... and a penny for my thoughts. -Hermie
I have the same problem. I have been a CL 80 MBH for a while and have never seen a boss mark over 20K in 50+ missions. I wish i could find that magic terminal.
Egoo
Anyway, to date I have yet to have any problems getting BOSS marks to show up. I will admit post pub 23 they have been scarce, but they ARE still there.
As far as bugs for loot...I don't mind, I'm disappointed when I get them, but glad they are in the loot table anyway. Why? Get too much of a good thing and you will expect it. What fun is that?!
Rainbows are often accompanied by dark clouds. What better way to contrast and appreciate the better drops!
Want a better chance of a boss? Take the NPC missions that are over 31k. I'd guess better than 75% of the time, if I do this, I'll pull a boss (I'm CL80 MBH/MCH). I, too, have not seen better loot to merit the longer fight boss marks require. I pulled missions in the over 30k, under 31k range and pulled all Elites and got fine loot. I think that the Boss marks can drop good loot, we just see more Elites than Bosses, on average, so the results are a bit skewed.
I'm glad to be honest. Cause I dropped the invest line because of simplicity on my part. And now I don't have to worry about driving 6k to fight a double gold chevron, with 33k ham. Only to end up with a jar of bugs. I rarely ever have gotten anything remotely decent off of a BOSS mark.
I'm 2444 BH now, and I get alot of elites and I'm just happy with that. I even got an AA last night. Nothing good on it, but that's just my loot luck.

I get Gold 1 chevron marks left and right...not sure if I have ever gotten a 2 chevron mark.
Gold Chevrons will never be Single ... they will always be double on an NPC mark. My ratio for Boss Marks hasn't been that bad . I am not a power gamer by no means usually do NPC hunting for about 2 hours a night when I am on and usually always end up pulling a Boss Mark or two.
Best loot I got from a Boss Mark was a CA General Melee Speed +16 Unarmed Defense +12 ... sold it for 32 Mill in an auction. Good drops do happen you just have to be patient. I tend to get also get a couple of CA's each time I take a couple hours to go hunting.
