Thread: Devs messing with loot tables for BH missions??
I got yet another kick as* CA last night, but I started thinking, there's not much middle ground when it comes to this stuff. For me, it's either been worthless junk, or a CA worth 10 mil. Now, don't get me wrong here, I'm not complaining about the CA's, but other things would be cool to loot as well..Like decorations, holocrons, etc..
I have not noticed any real change to the loot.
Whether or not you actually said the would "nerf", its what you are implying. The Devs aren't "getting the loot tables in order", as you put it. Loot is what it is, Random. Granted, we don't get the loot we did when it first came out, as then it was bugged, and they did "nerf" or "fix" the loot tables to bring them in order.
And no, again, the Devs aren't doing to us what they did to the Jedi Loot tables. The reason, believe it or not, is the fact that the way the loot tables are set up now, in order for Quality, Select, Premium, or Flawless pearls to drop, the CL on Krayts have to be 150+. Being that, they were next to impossible to take down, which is how they should be. But of course, the Jedi cried, so the devs did lower the CL, making them easier to kill, thus restricting the Quality of Pearls that dropped.
Now granted, in a case like that, one would think that simply adjusting the CL requirements for each Quality ranking of Pearl in the loot tables would solve the problem. Wrong. As Tiggs stated, doing that would retro-activley change all previous looted Pearls to their new Quality rating, thus giving out WAY too many high quality ones.
That is what happened to the Jedi, and its not happening to us in ANY shape or form.
Hunting Bounty Hunter NPCs are just like hunting EVERYTHING else in the game. Examples as follows:
Giant Dune Kimo
Gurk King
NK-Necrosis
Krayt Dragons
Etc.
While they all do have "certain" loot assigned to them, its not a GUARENTEED loot drop everytime. Some days you can farm these NPC/Creatures and have a very high success rate at looting their loot items, other days, you can kill them hundreds of times and come out empty handed.
bh missions are still the very best loot source in the game.
