great post but NOONE has been looting GDK scales at all. those who do seem to get them confused with kimo armor segments i think.

thread in Armorsmith forum from their correspondent says Dev have stated this is a BUG, not intentional, so they should be coming back!

thanks for the 5 stars 
i think saying theyll be back again soon might be a bit falsely hopeful....they should be back as it was unintentional they were takin out, but not date or time frame has been set as to when they will be back

The Peko Albatross drops them every now and then... but since I don't hunt those bad boys... who cares. Black Sun (outside of the DWB) also have not been dropping any BH armor. You can hire yourself and Ranger and go hunt these bad boys down like the GDK.... but... the result has been the same for many hunters... they are just not dropping. I believe... the system has been setup to cause a greater spawn.. however the calculation tables for dropping has also been temporarily changed. With that said....EPIC Armor: RIS and Mandalorian Armor is suppose to be the rarest armor in the game. Hence, must be difficult (not impossible) to obtain. It is stated on the development forums (do not recall the exact post) that EPIC Armor will be rare... however it will be ONLY uber armor in the game. They DO NOT want a hundred folks walking around in the suits all over the servers like the abundance of Jedi in the game. It will cease to be any worth if the servers are flooded with the armors. Now... months ago there was a huge drop rate in the game... some folks took advantage of the situation, hunted/looted and purchased the items ... while they were hot. Look at the pearl drop rate now... Now imagine in months from now when you can no longer obtain the pearls...Rare and uber loot: is suppose to be very very rare. Calculation tables will always exist and change based on current game dynamics and how the drop rate affects the server.I am very happy that I bought all my RIS components when I did. If and when the CURB comes around... group hunting will have to be accomplished in order to kill off GDKs as in the old days. It is unknown how the drop rates will be then... but until then... I will hold on to all my RIS componets until the CURB and then make my RIS armor.My advice... hire yourself some hunters, go hunt them down yourself or buy any components you find on vendors or the forums while they are selling... the prices will only go up later on down the road.... I have been playing this game since the very beginning and see how changes affect prices.... a good merchant will know somewhat what needs to happen... but an excellent Merchant knows values and how to play the market. Hence... they will make their money... even if they have to wait a while... they know it is a gamble... but the gamble is to win...Good luck
The Devs also said Jedi would be rare and that they did not want a 100 glow sticks in coronet....... guese the devs lie a little

Poor spelling and grammar show a deep level of ignorance, and disrepect for the people trying to decipher your posts. I'm sure I'm not the only one that generally has to read a "u, u r, yur wat" post more than once to actually come to grips with what the author is trying to convey. For many "ppl" english is not thier first language and you make it almost impossible for them to understand "wat" "ur" trying to say.
