I think some folks misunderstood me


This wasn't a whine or gripe at all. I have plenty of crystals, I just thought it would be cool from a content perspective to have a special place and method for getting crystals. The game requires some diversity to stay interesting. I meant only to be possitive in this idea, I'm happy to hunt and find crystals on occation. In light of some folks concerned about the quality of crystals not reflecting the toughness of the creature it was looted from and the permacamp issues of some of the main content driven locations such as Fort Tuskan and the NIghtsister Camp I just thought this might be a fun and motivating shift in game mechanics. This would also solve some visibility issues for Jedi and let them hunt for their own crystals allowing players to have alternate characters less combat oriented, adding diversity to the overall player profession spectrum.

This has been discussed. The developers have no plans on adding more content for Jedi and I don't think they should now.


Too many other professions are left gimped. That's why we see stupid temporary fixes like reducing requirements for Bounty Hunter instead of actually fixing the profession.

you don't.. they closed up the cave a couple publishes ago =/


you can find Force Crystal Hunters usually to the west of the Imperial Outpost all along the left side of the map though..


non-aggro named npc's with 28k HAM and 80% resist to everything are also Force Crystal Hunters for the light side.. they drop the same as the aggro ones do.. you can usually find 2 of them huddling around the shrine right outside the Dantooine Mining Outpost

I've been upto the Force Crystal Hunters a few times & never had anything more interesting then a locked container from them.

They just seem like too much effort for too little reward to me... What can they drop?

They used to drop crystals and holocrons when they were rare.

Force Crystal Hunters NEVER dropped crystals.. there was a huge debate on that a long time ago about why they were called Crystal Hunters when noone has ever gotten one from them..


they do drop holocrons though.. if you're still after holocrons, you'll have better luck hunting darktroopers at the Naboo Weapons Development Facility, or Rebel Surface Marshals on Yavin

Your probably right about the crystals, but yeah I did loot holocons off of them. I'm not really sure if they drop anything other than credits now. I went about a month ago to the cave and only got credits, but I'm unlucky when it comes to loot.
