Thread: Message for all u Borgle and Aakuan Cave AFK Campers
I beat the campers at theyre own game, by beating theyre spd macro's, and then decided to hunt missions instead. I dropped in 3 days three full 50 capacity backpacks with high-end attachments, now thats gone because people like you complain too much, they didnt just nerf the caves, they nerfed attachment drops from all aakuans.
just killed 400+ today and dropped nothing, killing that many last night i would have filled a backpack.
So keep laughing, because the ones I have from legit hunts just tripled in price.

lets cut to the point there are no other npc that drop sea's relaibly they have all been nerfed the only things left are 1 the master bh missons and the djm and grinding bh just to get a shot for desent loot is as bad as afk camping and the djm are not realy soloable so if u can think of another npc that drops sea's plz feel free to share but thank you for taking the time to be respectfull to those of use who put time and effort into the missons and if you think about it they could have nerfed the caves without nerfing the missons if they triedMessage Edited by styxY2k on 09-02-2005 01:26 AM
If you can tell me anything worth killing besides BH marks just tell me.
As Sandsifter said in an other post...
As someone who spends 4 hours a day 7 days a week for 18 months (since i finished my template) loot hunting...above is a bunch of garbage.
Deathwatch - Only entrance is soloable and the drop rate is the worst of any mob in-game. I know peeps that have spent 6 months in there and have 3 jetpack parts to show for it. No skill tapes, no crystals, nothing else. So DWB is out for us true loot hunters.
Corvette - I assume you mean the corellian corvette that has mobs not adjusted since the CU ? The place no group bothers with these days and 95% of newbs dont even know about ? This place is off-limits except for those morons who dont mind dying 300 times while they get an av-21 schematic and if lucky 1 powerplant for it. Yeah really good place to get tapes.../sarcasm off
Singing Mountain clan / Nightsisters - Umm what game are you playing ? Since CU messed up loot tables, they drop junk. Elders no longer drop tapes or premium/flawless crystals. The drop rate used to be 1 tape every 10 hours for me, now its 0 tapes after 100 hundred hours. Everyone but you apparently knows this as well. Dont believe me, go take a look at the forced labor cave on dath. Its always empty now.
Lok - any mobs on Lok dropped junk before CU, after is the same. Go try and farm the canyon corsairs hideout for say a whole weekend. You'll end up with 2 "good" crystals (worthless) and 1 junky tape like +3 augment efficiency
Dantooine - force wielders, etc only drop good crystals if anything. Thats not worth anyone's time. The jinda types are pointless as who needs doc stuff these days ? Ive farmed the crystal cave on several occasions, zero tapes...only crummy crystals.
NPC Jedi - Besides maybe 1-2 templates, these arent something that can be hunted solo. And they dont spawn in reliable spots. Only those imps who farm the mission have access to them with the right template and some luck. I dont consider this a reliable loot place when mobs are level 200+ and can only be spawned by one faction.
Marauders - im the king of farming them, knowing where and when to go. They simply dont drop anymore because of the loot tables. I used to get 1-2 decent sellable tapes every buff session (3 hrs). Since the CU, Ive gotten a total of 4 tapes over hundreds of hours of killing.
Krayt / Gorax / Ackley - Pointless to waste time on them. BH marks drop a new loot called power cells which are way better than tissues or bones from these mobs. I recently tried selling 20+ gorax bones / krayt tissues...couldnt sell hardly any of it as the market is gone. Pearls, if you can get one go for 500k each. You might get 1-2 every week, hardly worth the time and effort for so little credits.
So in conclusion, the original poster is correct to complain. We looters are totally running out of things to do. This is our end-game and its been broken for months. Enough already, fix it or watch us quit.

simply sad
The corvette is balanced, and anyone with decent healing can loot it without dying. I hit all 4 loot spots, as a Rifleman/CM, and ejected within 5 minutes.

I could be wrong... but I think he is trying to point out that the loot from theenemies themselves on the corvette is a big mess. But personally when I have gone there I haven't ever had problems making it to the 4 loot spots either.

And you'll get to keep them because I won't buy them. There will always be someone with a better price.

You'll need it to dust off yourover priced SEAs.
