I missed the sub text on the LOOT REVAMP statement it actually read LOOT REVAMP: you can now loot even more (but less varied) poinless crap at a much higher drop rate...


I've always been a looter, I live for Loot and have killed a fair few meetlumps (while AFK) in my time, I make no appologies for it.


But back in the day when everyone including myself thought the loot was pretty much utter crap, I used to loot the following items on a regular basis...


Faction data disks

clothing (including dusters in colors rarely found on tailors vendors)

AA's (+1 only but the odd weapon exp, armour exp or medical exp)

CA's same as above

Weapons (novice stuff only)

Twin Force crystals (rare as hell, but even top notch ones dropped).

Single force crystals (again rare but top notch ones did drop).

Locked Containers

various other items some useful some not



Now I loot


Streetlamp schematics

and copper batteries



Give us back the pre LOOT REVAMP loot please!!!!!!

Don't like what meatlumps drop? find a different gang to fight. I personally love that each type of NPC has a different feel to its loots. I'm also glad that the more important items no longer seem to drop from the low end guys that can be camped AFK.

If you going to fight simple (unchallenging) targets, simple rewards should follow.

No sympathy from me.

I kind of feel where you're coming from with this. I do tend to spend alot of time deleteing loot. Including base krayt tissue and scale drops. There is so much loot now. Some people want some of it and some don't. Before it was easier to sell what you looted because there were alot of people that wanted it. Now not so much. But mass loot is here to stay. I just hope they tone down the Nyax, Krayt and Gorax spawns.

Yes wouldnt it be great if meatlumps where the ones that droppeg all the good loot? So you could loot 20 +25 CA's while you slept at night and tons of premium crystals.


But realy, as stated above easy kills make for crap loot. You cant expect something that dies in one hit too drop high value things!

One thing that SOE should scrap is the dud firework.


I completed one of those kits and i got a lousy type 1 firework with 5 uses. Who are they kidding with this BS? At least make it a show package with 30-40 charges and make it look unique.


Now it's just a waste of server space.

Ah poor AFK looter is crying. I have no sympathy for you. Why don't you actually try playing the game you purchased instead of AFK camping. What a novel idea.

I can't say that I agree with you on the rollback to the former loot table whatever that indeed was. I do however share your frustration that faction data disks are still dropping. Last night i got three, now if I could still turn them in for money/faction that would be one thing. However 1k credit is simply not worth my time. I haven't gotten very many junk weapons although I have been killing mainly Corsairs. I also share your frustration over the lack of SEAs. They revamped loot and left these rare as hell with junk stats dropping just as frequently as decent stats (-8 to disease anyone?).

He may spawn more but he does not seem to drop loot anymore (post Pub 12) so its pretty much a moot point until he's fixed.
