this is a new system recently put in by the devs to prevent people from fighting and killing in the game for the sole purpose of loot. being in a group also heightens the chance of loot.

how do you know this for sure ? if so then would this still work in a solo group or do you mean like the scout bonus if someone is close by?
lol i was waiting for a blacksun to respawn while writing this and had to go back to came half way through and looted a Leg piece. (thats only 17 kills since my last loot normal i go up to around 30 to 40 between loot).

took me about 3 weeks of hunting black sun every day for 1-2 buff sessions to get my full set (and 2 jetpack bases, 3 extra helmets, and 2 extra pairs of gloves). the average for all 17 loots i got in that period was about 1 loot in every 55 kills. methinks this stuff needs to be as rare as the black sun ace helmet, as in 1 drop in every few hundred kills. flame away

Someone told me that blacksun seem to spawn and drop loot according to resource changes or act as if they were resources and only drop durring limited times. That made sense to me. Because the loot is supposed to be rare and I can understand this type of logic. It stops people from camping the area and makes the items rare. So you should give it a go and if nothing comes out then revisite from time to time but dont waste whole days like I have. Its a waste of time.
hmm... not sure about that one but in the past 2 days I have looted a VERY much higer rate of BH armor than normal... somewhere near 1:10-15. If you you are right on timing idea, I guess I have the timer on my side
Bria is the worst serverfor hunting the stuff. I wont give up though.

DWB loot is not broken, its just rare. If it were as common as a say a Meatlump drop, then everyone would be running around in Mandalorian Armor.
Tonight alone we did 2 Loot runs. Both combined lasting about 5 1/2 hours. We looted 1 Binary Liquid, 2 Data Storage Units, 1 Injector Tank, 2 Alum Gel Mine Packets and 1 Ducted Fan. This was off NPC's mind you.
But this was a bad day. Sometimes we get more, but we also have more people and stay longer.
Its all random for the drops. Its not instant and you can't expect to go in and loot something on your first run. Keep trying, you'll turn out with some good stuff in time
