I was up at the geo caves and was looting the crazed geos for parts like cores and cubes well I looted the buggers and was only getting 1 part per geo. I did it at several different locations and still looted only 1 part per geo. I loot a geo 1 cube I loot another geo 1 sword core it was freaking nuts. Also i'm getting a bit angry at the fire spider I have killed the fire spider about 4 to 5 times twice with a friend and about 2 to 3 times on my own and the bugger hasn't given me anything.

1. loot is random.. so is the number of loot you can get off of a mob.
2. the firebreathing spider doesnt drop venom/fangs all of the time like the acklay, usually it's about a 1 in 15 chance that something will drop from it, unlike the acklay where there is a 100% chance of a loot drop.
3. it's not bugged.

I hope they do slow the drop of loot in the caves. It will slow the loot campers, and then I can go back to useing that place for fun, and grinding a little xp.

Actually many parts often drop in sets of more than one and many schematics require more than one with the same serial number and since the patch everyone has been reporting that these parts have only been dropping in multiples of 1. It is bugged.

1) true
2) Acklay is not 100% more like 80-90%
3) yes it is

finally some proff. Yes I know the fire spider doesn't drop parts 24/7 just venting there however I looted 1 schematic as expected but every time I looted a component of a geonosian I would only get 1 this did not have once or twice if you think it was just bad luck it happend to me 6 seperate occasions and in 2 different places. The geo cave is bugged.

It IS a known bug, why would you post a claim like that that you can't back up?

My friends have told me that the loot tables for geos and krayts are bugged.

Correct! From info posted in many threads, drops on Geno's, Kryats, Gorax and many others that drop multiples of the same things, are bugged. Not sure how far this goes as in relation to GDK scales, Wolly Bones, or even NS Shards.
Best bet is to wait for a hotfix...

i just want to know where it says that your supposed to get more than one componet every time you loot one.. if your testing was correct and it was truley bugged then it would happen all of the time, to everyone. and since it has only happened to me a few times in the past month i must conclude that it's not bugged. unless a dev has stated otherwise.

The Acklay has not been dropping 80-90% of the time on Eclipse, out of the past dozen times I've looted it lately the only thing I've gotten was an enhanced bone armor schematic

i was told by a reliable inside source that sometimes if you make the wrong person mad they will nerf your personal loot chances. You may have upset a dev with a controversial post. This will greatly affect what your in game experience will be.
