Could you please post what kinds of missions you take ( payout, type, etc ) and if you have any modifiers like FS Luck or anything that might be tipping the balance in your favor?

It's random!!! Take the 31k payout missions of any type and make some extra credits while you're waiting for the good loot to drop. My method for alot of good drops.....run tons of missions.


P.S. Be prepared for alot of slicing gear and paintings. You'll go through periods of several days where you get the same old stuff...then you'll have 1 or 2 days when you seem to be raking in the worth-while loot. Just don't come back here and say its nerfed if you hit those bad luck periods.

I too just take the 31k missions.

As the first replier said, just need to run lots of missions, and you'll have good spells and dry spells.

I've been running missions for about 2 weeks now....hundreds of them.

Several good CA's, lots of bad ones, lots of bh schematics which sell for decent money on Kauri, power cells, and tons of smuggler stuff.

I've been able to sell my loots for over 90 mil I think....and that doesn't include the 31k per mission you make either.

I have the same curse...just with chestplates and leggings. Sadly, I won't make too much money from my bh missions anymore unless I loot the uber tapes or ws components. I have a deal with my guild armorsmith that she gets all my schematics since she made my finished set of armor for free and my slicing gear gets sold on my vendor for 2k a pop. I might be raising the price on those soon since they've been selling like crazy, but it won't be much.

I sell my slicing gear for 10k a pop. (Probably because of the difference in server economics.)

So far, I think I've done about 20-30 missions, and gotten around Mostly simple toolkits, ONE Bio engineer painting, and couple of Jars wit hbForaged berries. (I'm not master yet, though. So far I'm CL77 and MRifles/4000CM and 2444BH.)

I dont want to waste a qhole thread on this question, so here goes: Is there a faster way to grind BH xp than taking missions? I've heard something about Uplink jamming, what is this? Does it give xp? How hard is it? ect. ect.

I am cursed with finding chestplates. I have twice the number of these as compared to other BH pieces. I usually take 30-31k payouts and have had a run of bad luck recently where I've landed slicing components and NOTHING else. *sigh* Hope that ends today.

yep it is definitely all random, as one of the above posters said you can get good stuff then go through a long stretch of nothing. I got a great attachment and then got nothing but slicing stuff for like 4 days after that, thought they nerfed loot but they didn't. Then i started getting some ca's again, although nothing good but showed me they were still dropping.

Basically, you go into an opposite faction base and slice the uplink terminal in said base. It's supposedly fast XP, but I never tried it..I did it the hard way..lots of missions.

Go to a base of the opposite faction, preferrably PVE Small Forward Outposts. Get someone to take agro for you, since the NPCs are somewhere around level 60, run in and find the Uplink Terminal. Bring up the radial and do Jam Uplink. I think that's what theoption is called....select a number and go high or lower based on what it tells you. Eventually of tinkering with the numbers you'll get it and 1,000 BH xp will come to you. I sliced 28 terminals once I got Investigation II.

So basically It's hard to solo? I posted my template and CL above, you think I'll have any trouble with soloing it= Someone tol me to get incapped next to the terminal to loose aggro... Does this work?
