Thread: Read:Don't Nerf BH loot!
Mist HuntersWhat's this talk about loot nerfing?
There actually been discussion, or are you just paranoid?
Anyway, I find that the NPC loot has been excellent, and VERY fun. Plus it helps scratch the back of the smugglers as well.
I agree that the loot is well done here, and in fact (dare I say it), the system is perfect as-is with regards to NPC bounties. It's fun, rewarding, and knowing that you are at least going to get SOMETHING of use, even if it is a smuggler part, is fun, and even more so with the possibility of multiple loots from one NPC.
anyways, i'm paranoid... i haven't finished BH yet, and i wanna get my hands on this loot. damn the invest grind!
i say nerf afking on kashyyyk
im paranoid about them nerfing the loot drop rates also..whenever something cool happens like a fix to some loot in the game they always nerf it after awhile..and i sense this wont be along for very long
They need to fix loot tables for the rest of the game instead of nerfing...Smuggling components were impossible to get before this patch..Illegal Core Boosters were going for 2Mil... This helps Smugglers indirectly as well. I know my business was up like 1000% last night. Its not an ideal solution to slicing issue, but it does help (specially when you are BH/SM
)

I haven't seen too much nerf-calling yet, but the Pistoleer correspondent has made two posts that have basically only been "What's the point of PVE if you're not a BH now?" You'd think a corresponent (And for my other profession, no less) would be one to welcome getting good loot out to the common-player and encourage fixing all the other loot tables rather than throw out posts like that. It appears like he's not overtly calling for a BH loot nerf, but the subtext is that he's definately not happy about it. (But then, being a long-tme pistoleer, since when do the devs listen to us?
I believe it was tanks that said that somecoro's where asking for a 'fix' before it went live....Im guessing one of them was the pistoleer rep.
I'm just thinking ahead. At no point in time (more specifically, recently) hassomeone in game gets something of value and everyone cries. If the devs do anything they 'bandaid' fix these'concerns' with knee jerk reaction solutions - i.e. nerfs. Lets think this through, use BH mission loot tables as a new STANDARD for drop rates on any CL75+ mob. Loot in this game has been in a dismal state from day one more or less, lets get this right, and do it on the first try.

PLEASE - Just fix the other 99.99% of the loot in the game that has had a crappy history at best.
This loot can not be done AFK. For ONCE, bring everything else up to BH loot standards, don't drag BH loot back into the black hole that current loot tables are in.
Yall got sum'n right this time, continue it into other sections of the games loot. I beg you.

ok first of all all the other stuff having same loot drops as bh marks would be off, id love to be able to just goto a place and fight stuff to get good loot over the bh way.
-Get Mission
-Travel Out Of Town Wait 20 sec for droid
-Head Back Into Town Wait Few Min For Planet
-Goto Planet And Have 90% Chance that U Will Travel Over 3km
-Travel Back That 3km
-Shuttle Back to Where U Got Mission
All this for the chance of a loot " 1 " loot drop, the work u do for a bh mission is diff then just random stuff dropping, If Everything Dropped good loot there would just be mass farming groups hoarding sea's, Doin Bounties is at least time consuming even if it is easier
