Confirm that Binayres are not dropping blue wire or heating elements.


Corsair Captain is still dropping agitator schems (I looted one two days ago) but it appears that the corsairs no longer drop that small motor. They are still dropping colour crystals and the occasional clear (junk of course).


Also Ive noticed that nothing is dropping loot kit items anymore. Neither cloth, nor adhesives, gong kits, nada.

Not sure if this is true or not but its what I try...


Being special forces or combatant increases chance for loot. My reasoning for this is I've been looting skill tapes in the +7 range off stormies that mob near bestine on Corbantis server.


I think the GCW npc's are dropping the loot moreso than the Aakuans et al.

My looting experience this week:

NO blue wires or heating elements

NO feed tubes

NO spinner blades

NO elegant white cabinets

NO blue couches

YES tanning hides & cantina chairs

YES Aakuan ranged defense rings

I have looted all these things prior to the last patch - I say a majority of the loot drops are broken. Many, many kills yield nothing but a few credits.

Seems like the low frequency drops are put into a bucket and only replaced at server restart instead of every hour or couple hours.

Also looks like all loot revamp items need a complete pass. Lots of things seem to be missing.

Another confirm on spinner blades from Hidden Daggers. They don't drop party posters anymore either, but I can live with that after getting so many. Though it's fun to hang them up with a fish in the upraised hand.

Can the next person who confirms agitator motors please confirm where he looted it from? Is it still Corsair Captains?

Oh wait, we already know the answer to that. NO!

I've been killing Canyon Corsairs non stop for the past week and have not looted any agitator schematic---even offered the guildies money to try and loot some for me, and no one offered anything to my vendor

No blue wires, and I only looted one spinner blade since I've been trying. And since there are no stat spawns, and my missions are usually many kilometres away from the mission term, I've got bored prety quicly of trying.


Also I'm sure its been posted somewhere before but it looks like the requirements for the recyclers have changed??? I was excited about the old way.

had guildies loot agitator motor schematics from corsair captains at the poi also metal recyclers this is in the past 2 days

also heating elements n blue wire i got from the binayre poi on talus enough for 3 tumble blenders and enough elements for 3 metal recyclers all within one session

as for spinners only looted 2 I think what someone said before in the thread about the loot tables only resetting at server shutdown must be true

A guildmate and I were doing Corsairs tonight. He'd been there a while, but in the two or so hours I was with him, we found four metal recyclers, two power motors, assorted datapad batteries, literally 100+ crystals, enough wiring to make a piano, enough gloves to give every Bothan their own five-fingered sleeping bag, more rifle barrels than the universe has ever seen--and no agitator anything.

I havent had any problems with loot. Im a bit of a loot wh*re and basically thats all I do. I have gotten agitator motor schems, heating elements, pearls, nym motors, clear crystals, LOTS of attachments, etc etc in the past 3 days. Only thing that I cant seem to get are Blue Wires. Killed 5 NS Elders 2 days ago, nothing good off them but a decent lance, rest was credits/clasps.


Lok was glitched last night, loot was good. Got like 8 attachements, GDK scales, crystals etc etc.


Ackuans are fine for me too. Although havent looted a ring in quite some time.


Corvette is good. Got aPowerplant 2 days ago.

UPDATE- I got yet another Small Power Motor, and I was paying enough attention to remember that I got it off a Canyon Corsair Destroyer. I now have five agitator motor schematics. I got them all from Captains. I sat in the little semi-circle of huts that has a Captain that spawns in the tent at the POI. Takes about an hour of killing Captains to get one schematic. Someone was kind enough to give me a metal recycler schematic. In just under five hours of solid killing of Canyon Corsairs, I didn't see a one.

I do have Luck IV in the FS tree, so that may help. I have yet to find a schematic for the metal recycler myself, though I did get one from someone else, so they do drop, but after clearing the Aaukuan cave a couple of times, I have yet to see a schem from them. Is there a better place to hunt for the chem recycler schematic than at the Aaukuan POI?

Almost forgot. I did get one heating element, though I cannot remember for the life of me where I got it or who I got it from.

I have also done about eight Vette runs. No AV-21 powerplant. Guess I can only keep trying.
