My point is that boss marks should not drop unworthy rewards.


Isn't it fun if we are to expect something worthwhile after a long and grueling fight with boss marks? Isn't it going to be fun and enjoyable if we continue to hunt boss marks because we expect adrop that is worthsomething from them?


This is not happening right now since boss marks drops junks. This is the reason why I call hunting boss marks not fun, not worth our time, and not worth our subscription money.

Illegal core boosters and delicate trigger mechanisms are definately not junk components. If you think they are, try grinding t master smuggler and sit outside the starport in Kaarada for a while. And foraged bugs are delicious--you can find bugs anywhere throughout the galaxy, but our marks carry their own jars for these specific bugs.






I am master smuggler and they are basically junk components. It is not our fault the devs have given BH's the smuggler components. it really isn't. Blame them, not us. But to a BH it is largely junk because the smugglers don't want to pay what they're worth because THEIR clients won't pay the smugglers what THEY'RE worth. It's a vicious cycle and it sucks to be a smuggler.

How many of you haveyour weapons sliced? How many of you could afford it before the new drops? I couldn't afford to charge less than 3.25 million the day before the publish. The answer . . . if you don't like the loot you're getting, go forth and stalk Jedi and rid the galaxy of these scum. And don't forget to stop by your friendly neighborhood smuggler for all your slicing needs.


And remember: if attachments were dropping as much as smuggler components, they'd become useless too.

I'm betting f you collected a stack of 20 or so of these "junk" components and either offered them to Master smuggler, or went to the trade boards, you wouldn't think they were so much junk anymore.

When you say boss marks drop junk loot what is the health on them? I agree that bosses with health below 30k usually drop junk but those above 30k+ drop good stuff. I have only got 2 drops of reinforced casings and they both came from 30k+ marks (and those 2 marks are the only 30k+ I have got)

Ihave 3 Bounty Hunters and each character is limited by the amount and quality of good loots (unless the server resets?) The good and quality drop is not random. Each character will receive a complete set of BH armor schematics, about 1-2 quality SEA(you will be able to loot several more SEA but they are almost worthless)andabout 2-3Enhanced Power Cells.


I have tested this claim and theory with my 3 Bounty Hunters. I hope someone will prove me wrong because with this set up, where quality drop is not random, it is not fun and we are like puppets being played by the programmers.

I'm a master smuggler too. I've actually made more post loot "nerf" than I was before because more people are actually looting the parts they need. It's not like we were getting huge profits off the components (unless you looted them yourself.)

It's probably a little easier to unload smuggler components now that they stack. I used to have my inventory full of components, but now that they don't take up additional space I'm more willing to keep parts in stock.

I just made roughly 30 mil selling the stuff I get from boss marks. It is good to be a BH.

today was a good day for me just trying to maybe get this post turned some so maybe we can get some figures down on loot drops. today's loot list for me was: 5 SEAS ( 1 with a jedi enhancement), one crystal (clear), 20 smuggler material, 4 BH schems ( boots, gloves, left bracer, 2 right biceps, 2 jars of bugs (yummy), and one cargo pocket. i will update this list to try and help us get an ideal one good loot days and bad loot days. one thing i did notice i got most of my good stuff during low population times (11:30 am- 3 pm EST)and at higher population times (3:30 pm- 12 am) i was getting mid-low drops. i will try to keep you guys posted on any updates and changes.
