Spent 4 hours grinding in Fort Tusken.... nothing but credits. 
I have seena few other postings regarding this and people seem toaccusinga push toJTL as the reasonfor the reduced loots.... hope not, I am fairly to to SWG and have no plans to go to JTL, notwithin the next few months anyway.

Believe it. They'll bore you to death with the ground game to force you to go to JTL. Also, getting you in JTL means that less people are doing the jedi grind, since I don't believe you get jedi xp for piloting. I am tired of this. I really am. If it wasn't for my fellow players, I would be out already.

I also spent a lot of time hunting yesterday and all i got was credits - not even a single item looted!

Loot seriously seems really low, I do nothing but hunt loot and Ive killed NS's for 5 hours yesterday with 3 loots. One was a helluva loot but still....Today Im on lok and killed close to 300 npc's without one drop.....Im outta here really soon if this isnt changed.

I have been looting basically hundreds of thugs in Moenia looking for adhesives. The rate at which these are dropping now is about 1/10th the rate they were just days ago.

Its been added to the List of issues now by the Dev's on the "In Live" forum - so at least its been acknowledged as a problem..... This is a Clicky

Last night was my worst loot nite on lok since I've played. Not one motor or component of any sort from any of the pirates. Just a few loot kit pieces. At least the random spawn rates returned to normal.

This weekend i killed:
Lord Nyax 6 times : loot=6k credits
Axkva Minn 2 times : loot= 4k credits
Acklay 2 times : loot=nothing
450+ Crazed Geonosians : loot=12 white cubes
4 Executioners : loot=2k credits
7 Observers : loot=3k credits
2 Witches : loot= 1k credits
I didnt even bother with NS and their crappy no DOT lances...
Conclusion => EQ2 here i come!
Look on the EQ2 forums, you will see that tons of SWG players are switching to EQ2. Too bad the devs of SWG are all... bah whatever its too late to fix this game now...

To the top, this needs sorting out now. No expansion here until the 5th and no loot on the ground, what's the deal?
Will the servers come down on the first day of jtl to rectify this, probably not.
Oh yeah, and to the person who deleted the other thread today on this issue, you want to sweep stuff under the carpet do it at home.

Yeahwhat the heckis going on!.
I agree with you - game is not out till 5th for SOME of us and with the loot drop tables broken, whats the point of playing? I play to hunt stuff and get at least some reward for my effort.
Yeah there's the meat/hides/bones to harvest but I don't have scout.....so again that rules it out. I don't really wanna get into a solo group and hunt cash missions all day either.
They are aware of the problem from what I read in the IN LIVE forums but no ETA....they never do tell you ETA anyway.
I don't know but I hear ya guys. Like one of the guys said if they keep borking things how are they gonna do the combat rebalance? ROFLMAO ....I can picture it now, crafters will be the PVE king!! LOL.

I totally agree. I can't afford to buy skill tapes i need to compete with everyone else in the game so my only option is to try and loot them. Oh wait the Loot is so poor you can't even shake a stick at it
I've allready cancelled my account I'm just playing out my last days.
FYI I can't see the point in playing EQ2 as that's just feeding SOE's pocket again. I'll probably move to WoW or mXo when there released
