Thread: Has our loot been nerfed already???

I've had a good and some others awaiting Id, but unfortunately I've found getting even the nicest of Jedi to spend 10 secs I'ding a crystal for me is a rediculously hard thing to achieve.
I'm making my self flame bait I know, but tbh it just re-inforces my opinion that most Jedi are selfish immature kids. (Note i said "most" not "all")
I did about 30 missions, and got:
2 crystals that was crap
21 piece of slicing gear
9BH Schematic
ALOT of bugs
1 CA... +16 riflespeed
But... I dont think the so called "ELITE" marks drop better then the "NON-ELITE" marks...

I hunted NPCs for a few hours last night and didn't loot anything except for some slicing components and a BH schem.
My very first target this morning dropped a CA with +8 Food experimentation and +8 Double bladed LS speed. And he only had 7k HAM (i've looted 2 good CAs off marks like this).
So, I'm undecided on if the loot has been nerfed or not. Maybe it has been "adjusted," but I don't think its been nerfed yet.
I've been picking missions from the terms with the highest bounties. I haven't had a boss mark since the day the publish came out. I wonder if the lower bounties spawn more boss marks (trade bounty for better loot/difficulty)...
Anybody looted anything like Enhanced pistol grips? (or something like that)

I did 2 missions today before work. I got 2 slicing components and an AA with +15 melee defense, +7 rifle speed. So, umm, I would say the loot is still good.
Loot is good, I bet the drop rate has been adjusted.

I believe it's random, I tried to get a 29k mission instead of my usual 31k, I spawned an Elite level 82 NPC.
Also the "boss" NPC's are extremely rare, well in my case. After 50+ missions, I've only had one......boy was that a fun fight......well until I looted a jar of bugs

I've ran about 40 missions and haveyet to loot any CA's or AA's. Mainly slicing components, couple of clear [good] crystals, 1 blue crystal, and about 5 bh armor schems [biceps and bracers]. At this rate, I may go back to hunting aakuans as they drop the loot I'd rather find [CA's and AA's]
What's really hysterical, is that I know a lot of BH'ers thatdidn't even pull NPC missions when they were grinding their Investigation branch, they were doing that half-ass terminal slicing thing for their investigation XP. They said that doing NPC missions was too tedious for Investigation XP. Old Schoolers like me got every Investigation XP from doing the "tedious" NPC missions,back when they never dropped any loot worth a damn. Now, all these "terminal slicer" BH's are complaining that they're not getting good enough loot from the NPC missions.
Cry.

This question may make me sound like a noob, but whatever. How can you tell which marks are "elite"? I have taken about 2 dozen missions in last 2 days, All of the missions i took were 30k payoff and the highest pay without taking a Jedi. When i got to the marks they were all level 81 or 82. Some of the 82 had HUGE ham. I have killed all of them and NEVER gotten ANY crystals, BH armor schems, or CA/AA's. I HAVE gotten a tone of smuggler parts and bugs. Am i taking the wrong missions? Are the specific"elite" missions that you can identify from the terminal? If i am just an idiot and taking the wrong missions that would be great.I am on Ahazi btw. If there is a thread somewhere about which missions to take to get these so called elite marks, someone please pointme in the right direction. Asit stands now, it is more worhtwhile to go solo krayts, djk, djm, and FS guys on dant than to take these bounties, Please help a strugglig MBH.
If you look directly over the NPC's head after targeting the mark, it will have silver or gold brackets << >> around the name
Marks without these will be the generic 6-7k health. If it has brackets like above then expect the health of the Mark to be 16-35k (at from what I've noticed)
