The only time you guys get good loot dropes is because you kill uber things because you bought an uber weapon that you need money for and to get the money you need to kill uber things with an uber weapon.... IT JUST KEEPS GOING ON!!!!!!!!!lol Well anyways do you guys have any tips for someone who has nearly nothing
missions are good, do those and get some money, and buy a new weapon, and work you're way up
or
ask a guildmate to spot you some money or a better weapon
if you're not in a guild, you should be, at lot of help can be given there

invest in a fusion generator and sell the power for 1 CPU. then buy a heavy mineral harv and go to swgcraft.com and find a planet that has a nice spawn of some sort of mineral. keep some of the power from your fusion generator and put some credits inside the heavy harv and go run missions. put enough credits and power in the harv so it can go for about a week. if you have a high % spawn, you will max out on minerals a few times every week. lots of people will buy grinding steel for 1-2 CPU, and from that one harvestor you can get 500k in steel a week.

Rofl, i wish i had some uber weapons!
I got a 341 at 1.7 scythe, and a 660 5.3 PH, not very Uber
.
Only way i can kill these "uber" things with none "uber" weapons, is cos i got master doc. Attack attack attack heal dizzy heal damages attack attack etc....
Dont have to have the best weapons to kill things. I got some giant dune kimo scales selling for 17.5mil so far, and i looted those with my crappy scythe

Get master doc, run missions until you can buy a few buffpacks (poizen has got some cheap ones DarkGhost, check him out). Then buff until you can buy decent stuff.

I killed my first NS today and got absolutely bog all
. I think it was a grand total of
140credits. Cheapskate (only mastered swords a day ago cos the Dathomirsiths had a habit of stomping on
my head).
Not very happy Atzo
Best thing I can recommend is to look to the trade page for your server. See what
resources people want (The doctors will know what meat is best). Then go out agree a contract
and get it.

If you have scout 0-0-4-0 & check the trade forum you can make easy $$$......... I just made my fist million in under a week as a TKA 0-0-3-1 & picked Iup 2 handed 3 in the process. How might you ask? I found a Doc who posted 150 CPU for the current best avian meat on our server with a 15 CPU bonus for a stack of 10k plus..... I just got my 1.65 million last night. Now I have to admit, there were other Docs paying 75 & 100.... either of those would have been nice as well. It took only 3 buff sessions to do it.. however.. as a MS I would guess buffing would be an option depending on your stat migration.
(Why am I posting here.... I am working towards MS... started late last night & with 2 handed 3 now)

there are still solo groups avail on dant for people that are grinding fs xp...get in one...go to lok, take nym missions...if you loot motors, the WS on your server will gladly relieve you of them for a nice price...go to the geo caves...loot power cubes, hardening agents, etc...WS will take all of this stuff most likely...ask around...Crafters are always in need of something...help them out...there are millions to be made a day if you just do it.

I killed like 120 or so NS today, got 1 crystal, 2 Mind poison LVA's (both over 200 str and 70s duration) a bunch of armor layers and so on. To loot good stuff in SWG its not a matter of killing the hardest target but how many weaker targets, the LvA's came off a couple of spellweavers (seem to drop good stuff and go down fairly fast) and the crystal off a ranger. In SWG its not about quality in kills, but quantity

half the time i don't use any uber weapon. i quite like my 2 h curved sword tbh. it looks cool. slower to kill some things with it but i have fun 
i do find a mind buff pretty essential tho if going after big critters like nunas
