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.





what are premium crystals? clear ones? I looted a red one from a 17K mark.

My average fight against a boss mark lasts about 3 minutes.


But I had one that was INSANE. He incapped me twice.


He was doing 500 damage to me consistantly. I tried all three sets of my armor that I keep on me, and finally ended up beating him on the third try. I poisoned him, set him on fire, had my droid attack him, and shot the hell out of him.


It was a rough fight, and it lasted for about 10 minutes. I've never fought an NPC for longer than 4 minutes until this one. Hell, most of my jedi fights last around 10 minutes.


I think the boss marks are fine.

If you take these marks up to lvl 83 it wil be ridiculously difficult. They're fine where they are.

If you want a bigger challenge, go hunt kryats.

the same could be said about people who think the bosses should be pushovers, if you don't wanta challenge, go fight nunas.


oh wait that's right, nunas don't drop the best loot in the game..........


why does like MAYBE the 15th hardest mob in the game drop the best loot in the game? how do you guys not realize that this is sheer stupidity to put the power cells and delicate casings in a creature that isn't even close to as difficult as a lot of the other high end mobs.

Most of the boss marks have been easy for me so far only requiring like 2-3 heals, but i did have to kill one where I used all of my mana healing myself and had to switch to stims before I finally killed it. I have energy layer battle armor and I think the one that almost killed me was probably doing kinetic damage because he did a lot more damage than any of the other boss marks I have fought. For you people that are having a hard time with the marks what kind of armor are you using?

No one wants the mark weaker, i certainly dont, but at the moment the level is just fine i think because ive had fights which have really tested me as a master smuggler/master pistoleer with invest line i have a lot of problems and on a couple of occasions ive had to use last ditch.


As for dropping the best loot in 2 very long days of playing ive looted 3 decent ca's and enough schematics to make myself a set of BH armour.


Just because you a few people find these marks easy due to their template being fotm bh/rifles with 4000 cm **yawn** doesnt mean everyone should.


I dont want them easier i want them to stay the same and i dont want to have to change my template to easy mode because i enjoy it as it is. Not every BH template is capable of defeating these marks in minutes and the whole levels of these npc's shouldnt be balanced because of a fotm template they should be balance with consideration of those who have a variety of templates.

I have been hunting marks since the pub, Ilooted 2 useless CA's right away, and nothing since in the CA department. I have probably put down 30 in a row without a CA.


...it makes me keep going until I pull one...hehehehe.

the 35k ham lvl 82s are a fun fight. but any template with investigations templates isnt the best for these. novice BH and run same planet missions from c-net all day. you'll get 5-7 kills per hour.


and a 20% drop rate of good loot is bad? try killing level 83 NS sentinels or level 89 BS, you are lucky for a 10% drop rate.

Premium is a variant of the clear crystals. I looted a "good" clear yesterday from a BH mark.
