As you all know, carbineer gets only +60 speed at master doesn't have much accuracy. So carbineers need attachments etc. to be good (in PvP for exemple).


I'm looking for attachments or something other like looted clothes to get better speed and accuracy.


Please don't tell me i should check the trade forums, those prices are crazy



I'm rebel, so what NPCs or other mobs should i hunt to have the biggest chance to loot things with good carbine skill mods (I should be able to defeat it as a normal master carbineer in good armor and buffed)? I would not like to camp somewhere...



Thanks for your answers

You are not going to like my response....



Trade Forums or compete against locations that are camped 24/7. The only other way is to get so lucky taking down high level mobs, which BTW you can't kill by yourself, that if you find more than one good Carbineer tape you should play the Lottery.....you would win EVERY WEEK.



Sorry to burst your bubble, but you either fight the campers or bidders.....

One more thing, at least on Chilastra the price for Carbine Speed has come down from around 400k per point to 100k per point thanks to the fix of the credit dupe.

I prefer to buy them as well. It really is just a matter of preference. You can compete with others and unreliably gain random skill tapes. Or you can gain credits in a reliable manner then buy the exact tapes you want. It really depends on how you enjoy spending your online time.

marauders (did i spell that right? x_X) on endor seem to be dropping very nice tapes these days, i've gotten a few nice tapes off them in the past few weeks.

carbineer tapes seem to be pretty rare though.. lol but i still think people destroy them cause they think no one is a carbineer. 'oh look, a carbine speed +25 aa.. bah, nice stats, but no one plays as a carbineer!! *destroy*'

My friend just looted a +11 Carbine speed CA of Lord Nyax while going to get a Corvette ticket. However,I would not recomend camping that guy. He does not spawn very often (maybe even once a day) and like it was mentioned above any higher MOB can drop them, Nightsisters might be your best bet. Novamarine is right, it's a heck of a lot easier coming up with a mil than looting attachments till you get the one you need. After all, how many different kinds of stats are there on attachments? 50? more? Chances are slim, keep your eyes on the trade forums.

Go to the Smuggler's Outpost on Endor, and talk to the shady guy at the far right side of the starport. He'll give you the location of some marauders. Or, you can just click on the POI WP in your datapad.
