Thread: NPC Missions a challenge?
black-eye wrote:
Two days after pub20 hit live,I logged in and tried anNPC mission in hope to find a challenging mark.... tracked the NPC down on Dathomir with a hell of a lot red dots surrounding ( NS Slaves and some grey con mobs creatures that didn't care about their grey con and attacked me anyway) and found the mark con yellow ( level 81 ) with a surprising 7k health. Hardly a challenge...... and in fact, the mark went down within a few secs without a chance to even scratch me....I took around 100 points of dmg in total ( just my crap composite armorequipped ).
SecondNPC markI found was level 83 and, again, 7k health.... got hit hard this time ( around300+ through armor andduelist stance )and had to heal up twice before the fight was over.... was still a fast fightbecause of the low health....
NowIreada few threads on the forums about boss marks that drop nice loot ( got nothing off these missions, butI also did justthese two so far, just need to go onI bet) , but what are these boss mobs?I'd guess stuff with 1 or 2 levels above mine counts at least as a challenge, further levels above me is a boss imo.....
Whatareyour experiences?What levels and how much health doyour marks have ( MBH missions, 31-32k payout, asI found the mission level is not theNPC level, I can get level 90 bounty mission, but luckily theNPC isn't level 90) ? How often doyou get such nice loot?
Thx for sharing the info.

i know the publish notes..... but i guess u also found that mission npcs levels are drastically increased alrdy.... as they were mostly level 30-50 pre pub they are now level 79-83 for master missions.
im not sure if the stuff i red about the loot and difficult kill during missions ( level 81 with high health ) is from TC experiences or live servers.... maybe should ask there, but maybe some reader of this thread may share his/her experiences from live server bounties ![]()

Bueno, I think I corrected most of the errors, but there are still many things that I can't correct due to not knowing what the author was intending to say. One person cannot possibly correct everything especially when there are multiple errors in each sentence. I just don't get why people purposely do not attempt to spell or write English correctly. It's not that hard and it makes it so much easier for everyone to understand you.

Ok first of all I dont think everyone is sure about what you are asking. Are you playing on live or test center? Are you asking about the new loot?
If so then I just wanted you to know that the loot hasnt hit live yet. It's still in TC. If that answers the question you had.

As I said above - the loot is part of publish 21.
In publish 20 they changed the levels of marksto be more consistent with the level of the mission. This resulted in some higher level marks like lvl 83's and such, plus the occasional elite mark.
In publish 21 they added a nice loot table to the marks, tightened down the range of level (most I've seen yet is lvl 82), and added chance for elite (around 20k health)and boss marks (up to 35k health). The mission payout did not increase. These marks will come from missions that payout up to 31k. Publish 21 is only on TC at the moment. Look in the other threads about the loot that has been dropping.
