I don't post much, I read a ton. I don't now remember but was curious and I bet some one will just answer it before I find it in FAQs:

True or False:

Training sabres don't take the Loot Drop Crystals?

thanks

The schematic in the tool does specifically say "Refined Crystal Pack" so I'd say that it needs exactly one of those.

The other sabers say "Force Crystal" and wont accept a refined crystal pack, so without even bothering to try it, I'd say they don't accept them, and as has been stated, you'd probably be silly to do so. BUT. That is no reason not to try it if you so wish...

I tried using refined crystal packs in constructing a gen 2 saber, does not accept it. The training saber requires 2 refined crystal packs, I tried using a looted crystal and it does not take it. So any gen saber must use a crystal (looted) and any training saber must use 2 refined crystal packs. Saw no difference either in amazing success rates versus moderate success rates for the creation of the refined crystal packs as well. So absolutely no difference in using a 99% experimented crafting tool and station versus the -6% light saber crafting tool.

That's not a bad run, but not necessarily more than just some god luck. I've on more than one occasion looted 3 crystals, in just a matter of a couple hours, one time, and another 3 over a 2 day stretch about a month proior to that. The 2 day stretch was just from killing random Evil Settlers, Slavemasters, Hermits, and the other lowly NPC types scattered all around. Then for the time I got 3 in just a couple hours, was from doing a long run of faction missions all day to make points for ranks, and credits. Both were just luck for that too, as I've spent days repeating those things on othr occasions, never seeing a crystal the whole time.

It's called luck ! I killed enought stormtroopers to go from Warrant Officer II to Colonel and never loota crystal :/

I found only 2 crystals since patch 6, one was in a Magseal container, the other one was in a standard locked containers.

I did loads of Jawa missions, I killed loads and loadstusken in their fort, I didn't loot any crystal !

Looting crystal is just a matter of luck ! Nothing more to say except that I'm quite unlucky

Think it's probabally that way for most anyone. They just seem to come once in a while and usually a couple or so when they do. After, it can be quite some time before there's more again. Between the 2 times I got 3 of them in short periods, I did a lot of the same killing, and not a one dropped, and went for at least a month, almost 2 like that. To date, I've got 8, which I hold onto, 4 singles, 4 doubles. the other 2 I got one at a time, a couple weeks apart right after I first started. The last batch of 3 was just 2 daysbefore the alleged "crackdown" when I was grinding to Colonel doing faction missions. NPC types, low and high will drop them though. All but one of mine came from what were basically even or slightly lesser NPC's to me, with just master Marksman/Laser Rifle or Scout blaster equipped (For determining mission/enemy level).

they "used" to just drop regularly, though i've killed thousands (maybe 10's of thousands) of meatlumps, swoopers, ragtags, mummers, etc since i got my last one.

Do you pay for two seprate accounts in order to do this? It sucks for the jedi that just want to play the game and get the resources to do so when people can do this...but what do I know i guess
