Theres a static elder spawn west of dathomir, i've camped it for almost 8 hours now and the only decent thing i've looted from it were 2 crystals which turned awful. A friend of mine who has also camped this daily for 3 months now has only ever looted 2 AA's, I understand the drop rate is low but when you loot crystals 4/10 times and AA's 3/10 on wild spawns this one starts making questions.I do not believe that wild spawn elders drop AAs 30% of the time.
My mistake, edited post. A lot of +25 have been dropping from Elders since the fix.

South of Prison sorry.

Ignore all the idiots , to answer your question, yes, she drops loot, I know what spawn your talking about and if I can't find any wild spawns I usually hit it once or twice until I can find some, and yes I've found crystals, attachments, and good pikes from this spawn(although since the respawn is about 20 minutes or so, this was over a long period of months). Personally I'd rather just milk a wild spawn rather then sit there waiting for her to respawn.
And no, not going to say where it is because I don't want 20 people there everytime I go thanks. Explore Dathomir outside of the POIs and you will see there is more to it then you thought.
To add to it, I have killed elders almost every day for a very long time, some days 20 in a row no crystals, some days 10 crystals out of 30, anyone who doesn't think it is random, hasn't killed enough elders in there game time. I know I've accumulated well over a couple thousand elder kills in my swg playtime, but I'll have to agree about the attachments, they are dropping more often now it seems. All of their other loot is the same, still getting rebel orders and low end crap all the time.

Agree
The loot drops are random - and Nice AAs and CAs are not restricted to Elders niether are good NSL and VL, I have looted some very nice attachments and Lances from Sentinels, Spellweavers,Protectors and even a couple of Initiates.
However the Premium Crystals do seem to be restricted to Elders in my experience anyway. SMC's do drop some nice lances as well, and the SMC Council Women which is much easier than an Elder, as she has lower HAM and lower resists (20% to Energy and either Blast or Kinetic, cant remember which) drops Premium Crystals also.

I don't have it.

This is the 2nd +25 i've looted since i've been playing the game, the last one was a +25 defense vs Stun CA - I went to show a friend and dropped it into a skirt by mistake
