Now instead of complaining about the new BH npc's and their loot prehaps you guys should look at your respective professions and look at how you can have unique content and missions which yield the same rewards without yelling nerf on a profession which has just been reinvigorated with a new and more exciting life.
Lets stop asking for nerf's on professions instead lets see how we can make the most of our current profession, my main profession is smuggler and im still waiting to smuggle im sure other professions want the ability to have unique content with unique rewards prehaps that should be the focus.
Nobody is asking for nerfs, for non BH it is quite disheartening that they dont have access to this loot that almost replaces Krayt, Gorax, NS and various other hunting.
I tend to hunt all sorts of mobs, some take 20 - 30 minutes to find, but it all seems a bit pointless when guildchat is full of MBH taking high end loot from mobs they have a waypoint for and are relatively easy.
And i agree with that but what needs to happen is to look at what can be added to the neglected professions to bring them in line with what the BH'ers are getting rather than lowering what the BH'ers have because as soon as you start to reduce things from professions you stop the same gifts being implemented intotheir own professions in the long term.
Smuggler should get this type of loot from smuggling, if i ever get to smuggle, and creature handlers can learn new abilities by taming pets now which is a cool new feature.
I think all professions should have a unique type of mission which is as time consuming as tracking down a mark but gives the same rewards for time spent which is relative to the profession doing the mission, of course these missions would be hard to implement because the question arrises for example "what is a squad leader mission?" and i cant answer that but i have no doubt that if squad leaders make this part of their focus they will have enough ideas to work on something which is workable.
was ok with the gorax shard alternatives as not many good weaponsuse it but dam krayt alternatives ffs may as well give bh a flawless pearl with every mission and deleat the loot tables of all the other mobs in game as all other mobs are now worthless in comparison

DWB
Krayts
Gorax
Auks
NS
All of those things people can still loot off of. Bounty Hunter marks are no joy to run. It's not like going to the Krayt Graveyard and walking around. I'm sure that based off of the constant complaining that the BH loot will be nerfed - thanks for that - but at least let us have our one week or so of being on the top since we have been on the bottom for so long.
none of us are calling nerf were just asking for loot that is the quality of bh loot to drop from mobs that everyone has access to
as for your list
dwb= imposibal for the solo player and loot there severly sux at best non wareable bh armour or a piece of a jetpack youll probably never manage to make
bh mission can get wareable colourable bh armour
krayts= tissues all other krayt loot is currently worthless
bh mision can give you powercell which does the same as krayt tissue lowest stats ive seen so far are 150 max and they have sac reduction which krayt tissue dosent
gorax= gorax bone shards
bh mision can drop casing does the same as gorax shards but once again generaly beter stats
aa'kuans= skill tapes
bh mission also recieve skill tapes from what ive heard higher stats
nightsisters= heavy duty leather, below average pikes, occasionaly smugler loot
bh mision plenty of smugler tools including the extreamly rare ilegal core boosters
once again im not asking for a nerf just for the other ingame loot to be brought inline with bh loot look at the list above does it not sound unfare that one profesion has such an advantage over lootable items than any other profesion as well as being able to kill and loot the normal mobs

bah well it just got alot worse in my opinion, just found out the new marks are dropping an alternative to krayt tissue not only is the standerd drop of it over 150max but it also has a reduction to sac which krayt tissue dosent
was ok with the gorax shard alternatives as not many good weaponsuse it but dam krayt alternatives ffs may as well give bh a flawless pearl with every mission and deleat the loot tables of all the other mobs in game as all other mobs are now worthless in comparison

How about instead of nerfing the BHs they fix some stuff for other professions? I'm sure they are just setting the BH up for the ultimate nerf anyway; removing jedi missions all together.
A I M E S its like: i have killed lvl 80+ elite stuff for hours and finally i get a CA/AA with melee acc +5 or something... seconds later a friend log in, takes one BH mission and he has a BH chest armor schem, illegal core booster, a few cool poster and a CA/AA with some stat +9. Then he takes another mission, gets another illegal core booster, BH helmet schem and a CA/AA with some stats +8..
does anyone else see the unfairness in this!?
PS: feel free to flame me for whining
Well, the Devs seem quite happy about the loot drops so there won't be any nerf. Apart from bugged scopes all is as intended.
I'mquite happy about it, as a Pistoleer I can now make stupidly powerful pistols once the BH in my guild farm the components and I can slice them with ICB's. Also the SEA's coming in now means we can have 12pt everything and cap loads of stats.
It's just a shame you have to be a BH to get them, and its a shame that Pistoleer is the only profession that benefits from the component loot, unless you want a carbine or rifle that does 1 point of blast damage.

While you may not necessarily be directly calling for a nerf, that is what will happen. From a Dev perspective what is an easier fix? Adjusting all of the loot tables and calibrating them or simply adjusting the BH loot tables. From a very selfish perspective, all the loot that was previously mentioned has been in the game for years, people have been looting Krayts, Nyax (obviously not now), NS, DWB, Auks ect and BH loot has been in the game for 2 days. The BH loot is something that can not be AFKed, itis time consuming (vs. say a Krayt hunt in which youknow where to go and can camp there) with the travel time between the terminals and marks and I believe that the influx of loot will be a good stablizer for the economy.
