Same here....did 3500 faction points worth of missions last night, not one drop. Some credits, but no loot items. Oh, and I was solo, ungrouped.

I've also killed hundreds of NPC's and found only one Imp disk, but nothing more so far. Does anyone know who you're supposed to give them to once you've found them all? Do you give the Imp disks to the Imps, and the Rebels to the Rebels? Or is it the other way around?

well, ive killed at least 700, no joke, npc's and all i got to show for it was a couple locked containers, a wooden staff and 4 cdef's.........at least 9/10ths of the npc's ive killed were rebels.


fix the loot devs, it seems to be bugged or something.

Im getting the same problem.


I hear of lots of people with quite a few of these discs except, ive killed many imps, many meatlumps and nothing! Well i cant say nothing. Just a worthless bandholder and a locked container. Its getting frustrating, i see people selling the disks around town for upwords to 7k each, which means they have found quite a few, Yet again, im not so lucky to even find one. Not sure if there's a specific planet thats better for it or not but im on Corellia.
Commin' up completely dry and its irritating! i dont expect to find them all in a day but at least 1 every now and then, ive been looking for days.

I've completed about 3500 faction points worth of missions and found nothing on them. However when I was just out wandering with my guild, we encoutered a temperary rebel base and I found one of th e few that were there.


Maybe you have to loot them off non mission based peeps?

In the last few days, I've done about 7-8k faction points worth of missions--as well as killedmany desert demons, thugs, water thieves, Jabba's swoopers, etc.--and this is what I found:



  • Loot drops have been significantly reduced.

  • Locked containers seem to drop more often (this could be random occurance, but I've had container drops at about 15-20% of the total loot drops).

  • Weapon loot does NOT have randomized statistics as the big patch notes imply.

  • Monetary payoffs seem a lot more variable, but the maximum pay off is also much greater now.

  • It seems that money carrying NPCs do not have loot (I could be wrong on this, but I've been paying attention to it for several hundred corpses and it seems to hold out).

  • BUG: "You have looted all items" message does not show up any more.

  • BUG: If you are grouped, the monetary loot will not be collected and no error message will be displayed. My guess is that the monetary loot is supposed to be split between group members, but this splitting is somehow bugged and the process fails without error or an action taken. I do not know how the regular loot is affected.

  • BUG: It seems that, loot carrying NPCs will not have monetary pay off, but will seem to not react to the first double click you do on them. The second double click will tell you that there is nothing else on this corpse. If this happens to you, check your inventory for new items. Such corpses will not go away. This bug is hard to completely confirm, as many times double clicking is affected by both network and video lag.

  • Story disks seem to be completely random loot and can be found in any place where randomized loot is to be found.

I'm beginning to wonder if each disk falls from a certain mob.


I've done close to 7k faction worth of rebel missions. Only disk I got from them was a treasure map.


I run into Corellia and shoot a random Meatlump who was in my way and got a disk. Disk 3/4. So I start asking around and it seems like everyone who has disk 3/4 that I talked to got it from the meatlump.


A couple guys in my PA got disk 2/4 from a swooper.


Not sure, but maybe it's something as simple as each of the 4 disks falls from a certain mob on each planet.


Has anyone looted disk 1/4 or 4/4? if you have and it was on Corellia what mobs did they drop from?
