I've looted some good stuff off Nyax in the past.

In the 8 Times i've looted him i've got

AA - Melee Defence +11

CA - Polearm Counter Attack +15 (Broken but hey a big tape)

And the best one of all


CA - Weapon Exp +13

I was well chuffed after looting that hehe.

Rest was either credits or crybans..

I don't bother with him too much because hes so camped though hehe.


Other Than that NS's seems to be the best bet although i personaly have never looted an attachment off one...and i've killed plenty. Guess my lucks just elsewhere hehe.

Stormies drop +2 to +6's all the time. Got a +5 med exp off one not to long ago. I have noticed the drop rate with Stormies is much higher than NS's. Only been a Reb so don't know if Reb NPC's have the same drop pattern but it would stand to reason that they do. Oh, and all of the stormies I have killed have been non-player base NPC's.






Really? I've killed many stormtroopers(before I went Imperial) and have never looted a tape. I'll let you know about the Rebel npcs soon.

stormtrooper drop rates are HORRIBLE for me regarding skill tapes,, like at least for me i mean like NOTHING, maybe a +1 rescue occasionally. and i used to sell faction lol. ive gotten decent skill tapes from the Inquisitor inside the Weapons Facilities and while there isnt a huge spawn of dark troopers anywhere to be found they have dropped for me in the past

Dantooine / Dathomir


just watch out. they got 350k+ HAM, Heavy Armor, 90% to everythin (vuln to Lightsaber) and use Lightsaber themselves.. so have fun when you don't have a jedi (one who knows how) with you.


normally i solo them, but it's way easier if a novice brawler or sumthin like that comes along and helps out with intimidate =)


actually you can even get a quest on em.. the only problem: you can't talk with the NPC that would give it to you. he's at the imperial prison on dath as prisoner himselve but the laser spikes outside wont let you in..

in former days you just had to relog to get inside but they kinda fixed that. well.. maybe i'll find a way how to get inside, i'll post it here =)
