k guys,

I got a couple of questions...one is about loot from npc missions and the other is about jedi missions.


1) While I was grinding out investigation I was getting a lot of CAs and force crystals from the marks...still have a few of them which I have yet to find buyers for.....but since making Master B/H I haven't had a single CA or crystalfrom a mark...I've had quite a few of them drop schematics but so far no CAs and crystals. Mostly it's been foraged food and smuggler tools(trigger assemblys trandoshan infraframes etc)

So what is the liklihood of a master lvl bounty mark dropping crystals and CAs?.....I really would like to get some more of them...I gave the best ones I had to a jedi friend and I want more to sell. I gotta keep Apeps' bank balance pretty high cos I'm gonna be using my alt for a while. Don't want my main toon going bankrupt while I'm busy grinding in Valcyn.



2) I'm sorry if this is a n00bish question, but we all gotta start somewhere. Jedi missions offer payouts of up to 226k....so far the only ones I've seen on the terminals are worth somewhere in the region of 50k. I figure the lower priced jedi are new padawans.

But where are the higher priced jedi?

Is it just a matter of luck wether or not you find a high priced jedi....or do I have have to hunt and defeat some of the lower priced ones before I get to go for the big time?


This is just out of curiosity cos I was planning to go after the little ones first to get prepared for the bigger ones.

1) It's supposed to not have a difference, although many think different.



2) Payouts are all from teh 45k-50k range, give or take. You get the rest after you complete the mission(When you win you will recieve a bonus, totallign the amoutn fo whatever the jedi is worth, be it 100k or 226k)

ok on the NPC missions. its supposedly all luck. all random. etc. I havn't looted a CA in the last 4 or 5 days. but i chalk it up to a dry spell. I imagine the loot rate for a CA is somewhere between 1 in 20 and 1 in 40.

on the jedi Q. The mission payout (to my knowlege) has nothing to do with anything. it just a randomly generated number from 47,000 to 52000. you will get a bonus when/if u kill the jedi and the total will be the old fashioned 226k (if hes a full template)
There is now way to tell a Good NPC mission from a bad one, or a paddy from a knight on the terms.

Alrighty then...sounds good to me, I'm still working on getting a full set of schematics anyhoo so I guess I'll just keep at it...maybe my luck will change.

The jedi friend that I mentioned earlier that I gave the clothing attachments to...has been good enough to let me practice with him...so hopefully it'll improve my chances some when I finally take a jedi mission.....I think he is Master Defender/Master Sabers......but I could be wrong on that one.


So far I haven't been able to beat him in a duel......first time he pwned me in about 15 seconds, second time he was attacked by another bounty hunter while we were dueling lol.....every other time he's beaten me but I've been lasting longer each time we duel. One of these days I'm gonna beat him.

Hunting jedi takes alot of strategy n timing. Good bh loot comes in spurts. One day, first 2 missions foraged items each. Next mission bh scheme n a ls CA. Mission after that decent commando tape. Mission after that BH scheme, Last mission common smuggler loot.
