What else can I say?
I would rather we go back to the old method of not having them spawn then kill 50 Giants or 50 elders and loot nothing from them.
With current method I'm just WASTING my time killing them.
Yes good, point... the wasted armor, foods, buffs, and weapons.

So it once again goes back to the time when only power-campers could fight a krayt?
No thanks, this way people that want to fight a krayt for the fun of it and not the loot actually has a chance (and yes some people actually do that, insane i know) now people can have guild hunts for them without having tons of campers breathing down their necks trying to steal their kill and take away their fun.

Be careful what you wish for, right now No krayts is about what we got on eclipse. You think they could find a happy medium between a couple of krayts that never drops and 5000 that always drop. Always bouncing between massive extremes these devs.

/agree
this way, its not the ones who deal out the most damage that gets the loot... its the lucky ones, and that means rotation of loots.
imagine instead of one acklay, there were 5... you can get them ALL, so you have to put your eggs in one basket. suddenly, theres more than one person getting the bones.

there are more than enough krayts on scyall for everyone so screw the camping bs..i can understand for places like nyax, but not for krayts and elders....killed way to many to not get anything worthwhile.
I dont know about the rest of yall but if i am going to spend my ingame time to hunt them i would like to see some kind of reward for it.

Who on earth would want to kill a krayt for fun especially an ancient without getting any loot?

as a krayt hunter i completely agree with all these posts. And seriously, cant they just got a 50/50 median here instead of 1/100 or 100/1, its ridiculous

If i could successfully camp the graveyard and control the pearl market on my server, i would do it in a heartbeat. Have you ever been to the graveyard? Do you know just how colossal a task you are talking about? I am a pretty efficient machine, going through 20-30 krayts per buff. If i have a jedi with me, even more, with ancients thrown in. Even if i were to be 24/7 buffed and roaming the graveyard without sleep, there is no way i could possibly keep up with the spawn rate. They just breed to fast.It is like a herd of gigantic rabits. They are like the high end version of meatlumps. Kill one, and another pops up. Please, please, if you have some secret that will allow me to camp the entire graveyard at once, please tell me. I will use this power forgood, i promise

So you are not looting pearls...they should be rare, i'm a kryat hunter out there everyday and i don't care about not looting pearls because i'm still looting good tissues, today alone i got 2 sets of 11 tissues one with +84 damage and the other with +64, now i don't know about your server but on mine those alone can sell for up to 50-800k a tissue so if you want money there are still tons of ways to get it and now if you get a pearl it will be a lot more then it would be when they were dropping at a rate of almost 1 per every 2 kills.

posted this in a other thread but i think it shows what you mean in numbers
take 5 players for example all with their fresh paddy
They spent most time the fs grind and do not have that great equpment
they need to take their 2nd char slot cause the paddy has no saber with recent damege (and visi ....)
ok, 5 player, all need 4 fine pearls (forget the adk atm are 4 months old) - makes 20 pearls
oh we have the nice tuning results - very very optimistic everyone has 4 good tunes out of 10 - so we have 50 pearls we need, not 20
50*50 = 2400 big boys hmmm as a standard equipment player (no uber weapons) you need at least 20 mins for a anicent.
2400 * 20 min ... 800 hours (5 players)
they dont have millions because of the sologroup nerf 800 hours buff, armor, weapons ...
and this how many times to be able to go frs during the next 8 months until they get their adk ? ok after the first 800 hours they are faster in killing krayts
if the drop rate would be 1:25 then it still would take 400 hours
Would be a good thing for all crafters/docs out there but wait --- 800 hour 3h/day .... hmm cool i can go knight/frs already in 2006 - cool
