I posted this as an answer in another thread a few minutes ago, then saw the question again in yet another thread. So I thought maybe I should post it as its very own thread... sorry for the redundancy.

--------



I looted about 13 Shield Code disks and 4 Waypoint disks the other night.

NOTE: I didnt kill any Thugs --just the easier Outlaws and Pirates.



This description requires that you have some ability to "pull" an individual Sith from a group. I don't know all the attacks of all the professions, so you will have to figure out how to do it on your own, or invite a friend with the ability. For example, I am Master Rifleman, and I have "MindShot", which can be used to pull one enemy from the middle of a group.

If you do NOThave a "pull" attack, you might need to find a friend who does.



Here is how I got my disks:

On Eclipse, one ofthe Sith bases happens to be only 380m from the Outpost (not the Village).

At various places around the Sith base, there were two or three large groups of Sith.

These groups varied from 5 or 6 up to 10 or 12 Siths.

-- I approached to about 60m of the group and went Prone so I could fire without being seen.

-- Itargeted eitheran Outlaw or Pirate (NOT a Thug).

-- I "pulled" the target from the group

( As rifleman, for example,I have "MindShot2" in my action bars, so I quickly hit it about 4 or 5

times to queuethem up in my combat queue. The second I notice that a BLEED has stuck

on mytarget, I hit Peace.

IMPORTANT: If your combat queue runs out of mind shots before you hit Peace, then

your rifle will "auto attack" and the whole group will aggro you and you better runlike hell!

Queueing 5 or 6 mind shots gives you ample time to hit the Peace buttonafter you stick

the Bleed and before the combat queue clears.

After I stuck the bleed and hit Peace, I immediately stood and ran away from my target

to about 100m. )

--It takes about 15-20 seconds before he notices the big hole in his head and comes

after you BY HIMSELF.

-- Wait for him to come to you, and kill him.

-- You want him to die at least 40m from the main group so you can loot his body without the

group coming after you.

-- Rinse, repeat.

-- I did this numerous times without failure.


I got brave after several of the above rounds and did three at a time.

You can do more or less as you get comfortable with it....

-- Go prone at about 60m

-- Target 1st Outlaw or Pirate, squeeze off 4 quick mindshots

-- Quickly target 2nd Outlaw or Pirate (I use Tab key) and squeeze off 4 more quick mindshots

-- Quickly target 3rd Outlaw or Pirate and squeeze off 4 more quick mindshots

-- Hit PEACE,stand and retreat... you should be able to easily do this before the 20 seconds

for the first bleed ticks off.

All three will come after you, but hopefully you can handle them.

BE SURE YOU DO NOT TARGET A THUG while doing this, or your fun is over!


Good Luck!
